Genuine reasoned appraisals pleaseWhitbread is crap. Any time he held the ball during the tour of the states I cringed.

John Welsh is our most promising midfield prospect at the moment. He's drawn an awful lot of comparisons to SG; he can win the ball but also likes to get forward with it.

Neil Mellor is our best youth/reserves striker. He's a big, strong guy, and might someday play the role we were hoping Heskey would be more successful at. He's quite good in the air at the reserve level, although we'll see how that translates in the big leagues.

Warnock and Otsemobor are our best defensive prospects at the moment, with Warnock getting significant first team time already during the build up to this season. I expect he'll be in the squad rotation system this year.

Anything else you're looking for? If you're a scout for Bolton, you can kiss my ass. :)

my genuine interest is to get a handle who of these liverpool players are future inernationals especially the english ones

and to see how they compare with manure and arsenals kids because they have been quite muted by comparison and to see if liverpools future is as fighting for first or fighting for fourth
