Where did they all come from you might ask all of a sudden there are so many of these next gen superstars coming through the ranks. If you take wednesdays game for instance, it was a night for Liverpool's nepo babies, even if places on a football field have to be earned, not inherited. Koumas is the son of Jason, formerly of Tranmere, West Bromwich Albion, Wigan and Wales. His goal was set up by Bobby Clark, son of Lee. Danns, whose father Neil conducted a tour of the Football League in his own playing days, represents another triumph of the gene pool. Koumas, Clark and Danns senior made more than 1,000 appearances between them without representing Liverpool or winning a major trophy. The next generation have already accomplished something they have not.
Liverpool are all about gaining an edge where others can't. The introduction of new rules around signing youth players following the United Kingdom leaving the EU could have been seen as a major blow for Premier League clubs, but the Reds have used it to their advantage.
Klopp said this before the season:
"I have and obviously Vitor Matos and Pep Lijnders are the biggest advocates of all these boys. So they know absolutely everything about them and I see them from time to time and I can say it's good.
"But we have a situation where we don't need to put them in when it's too early for them. So are they in the first team? Probably not. Are they on loan? No, because we want them around to learn.
"And at the end of a career, no-one talks about the year when you were 18 or 19. If you were outstanding it can cause you more problems and if you're not in yet, you can feel like you didn't make it yet."
So since the club have reasoned like this then you can harvest ... Look at them !
Danns,Bradley,Quansah,Clarke and the list goes on and on. For me as a supporter I love a club being this healthy with owners in FSG who supports this system and mastercoach Klopp who gives them the chance. I don't think I have been as proud as I am for my Liverpool who has been supported for over 40 years at this minute. What we did on sunday was unheard of and then follow it up midweek like that, I felt more proud than I ever have felt being a Liverpool supporter.
