This is utterly horrific. How can a 17 year old be so depressed to take his own life??? How can no one noticed and did nothing???
Unfortunately around 150 teenagers in the UK kill themselves every year and the number is rising.
First off, incredibly sad news emerging tonight that 17-year-old former Manchester City youth team player Jeremy Wisten has passed away after he took his own life following a battle with depression. Thoughts with his family at this time, awful news.
Tragic news. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

The pressures faced by those going through their GCSE’s, A Levels and Uni years in the UK are ridiculous right now. Especially those actually trying to study. The isolation and other issues that they are going through is horrible and robbing many of them those magical few years which form the bedrock of most people’s “happy” memories. When you’re old enough to be free but to young to get full responsibility thrown at you (well some). Feel so sorry for them all.
I’m wondering if despite all the hype over Billy the Kid this summer it’s actually Rhys Williams that Klopp and his team are eyeing as an internal option for that “4th Choice CB”?
I mean he’s fucking huge! And not doing too much wrong in his senior appearances so far. He towers over most of the team. Seems significantly taller than Klopp too (not easy) although can’t see any official heights listed for him anywhere. Didn’t have high hopes for him after his lower league loan but it seems like it’s gearing up for him to start slowly breaking through this year.
He’s 6 feet 3’'. The same height as Virgil.
They’re both taller than 6’3 Hope. Williams looks to be at least 6’5, and Virg is probably not far off that.
I read some report on the game with AJax and it said he was 6ft 5.
Looking at photos Klopp and Van Dijk are the same height and both listed at 6’4". Williams looks visibly a little taller. Maybe it’s angles or stances but wouldn’t surprise me if he was pushing for 6’6"!

I have to admit that I didn’t meet them in the flesh to take measures, but that’s what I found on the internet. But yeah, I was a little bit surprised by these numbers, I see them both taller than that.
U23 Team playing Arsenal now.

According to my livescore app SvdB is playing CDM - is that true?
Glatzel for Bearne.

It was probably Clayton in midfield, he moves around a lot.

Good to see him return.
