Suarez - 25
Carroll - 25
Sterling - 17
Henderson - 21
Shelvey - 20
Adam - 26
Lucas - 25
Jose - 26
Agger - 27
Skyrtel - 27
Johnson - 27
Reina - 29
Kelly - 22
Jack Robinson - 18
Flanagan - 19

Considering that defenders do not generally peak until the age of 28-32 (nor keepers).

Looks like a very good squad Kenny and FSG are building. Have not included the likes of Gerrard, Downing etc. But a majority of out squad is young, and has potential.

Looks good for next season and the future.

yeah but you have to compare it with the likes of Arsenal Spurs Utd and City, I think Arsenals average age is 20/21 and utds it 23/24

Upcoming world class players IMO for 2014 WORLD CUP:
K-P Boateng, Gotze, Sturridge, Kroos, Lucas Leiva, Hummels, Kyriakos Papadopoulos,

Knew it wouldn't take long for the petty throw-away comments to roll in. I assume you're not a child. Grow up.

Its not just about age though is it? more are they any good? A lot on that list would never get near the City, Utd, Aresnal or Chelsea squads.

Add to that a poacher (young is good but I'd take berbatov just the same) and creative winger and we'll be in with a shout of 4th. But that squad is 100 m away from an epl and that's all I'm interested in. To Liverpool top 4 should be a poor season......

And Carrolls not 25, he's 23....lol sorry just nitpickin! but yes I agree! Hopefully the likes of Suarez stays for next season, and I'm confident we can only have a better season and grow with age! Another 3 years and we'll be champions again wink

You have failed to take into account the quality of the players. I could get a bunch of 18 yr olds together for a shoe string budget. Doesn't mean their future as a premiership football team looks good...
