Great chance for Morton if he gets himself a few games at least until January.
Things somehow worked out in a way that he remained here and with Endo probably playing his last season, it’s alright having 5 options for that double-pivot role (plus we have other options in emergency).
Still can’t find how much he has left on his contract but hey, he’s part of a Liverpool first team squad that is doing well, playing the midfield structure he’s mostly played on his loans, great platform for him to impress his club and potential suitors.

Bradley has only just returned to training, hasn’t he? Might be a bit early for a start?

He never did (in my opinion), extremely limited player physically and technically just has that good game knowledge and intelligence that let him get a bunch of goals at U18 level. I personally put next to nothing in U18 goals as so many players who never develop get huge hauls there. That step to U21 is a massive one and those who take it smoothly are showing a kind of scalability that indicates they can move to the next level. Those who struggle probably aren’t going to make it. In Cannonier’s case he struggled whenever he played at U21 level and then got injured and has barely played since.

Makes sense. He always seemed like a cool story more than a genuine prospect.

Yeah he was back yesterday. Hopefully he can at least play a half and give Trent some rest.
Yes, so how’s it going?
Is @jabu still at the airport? Thanks

I don’t think many U21 players would be involved anyway but another factor to consider is that the U21s are also playing their own game tonight - at home to Hertha Berlin in the PL International Cup.

Happy with that side and good to see Bradley back.

As long as we’re not rushing him back when he isn’t fully recovered.
Rumoured he faced. Late fitness test on Sunday and would align with why we ended up with 2 goalies on the bench.
