Brendan Rodgers has warned Liverpool’s owners that money will have to be spent on established internationals if the club is to keep progressing following Steven Gerrard’s departure
Brenton said:A large part of our squad is young players but there’s no doubt that if you want to take steps forward, you need to sign ready-made players.
The model at the football club is clear in that the owners want to bring in young players in order to develop and create them into world class players.
Of course, that can be a longer and more difficult process. It is certainly something I know the owners look at. They know that not every player can be a developer.
If you’re going to keep progressing, you also need those ready-made players.
Any truth to Gerrard wanting to move to the MLS so that he can get a loan deal to City or Chelsea next season to actually be in with a shout of ever winning the league without facing the wrath of Liverpool for moving to another PL club directly?
No? If not it's probably because I just made it up. Would be funny though (him moving to a PL club on loan, not him winning the league).
