Have Liverpool signed the young French CB Billy Koumetio? A lot of rumours say we have but nothing on the official site as of yet.

It's weird that people care so much about us signing a 16 year old kid.

You mean like Brewster? Or maybe Ki-Jana Hoever? Or how about Duncan? Camacho? Just because they are young players doesn't mean they aren't part of the club. And hopefully the future of the club. Getting young raw talented players will save the club potentially millions in the transfer market.

I find it more weird that you don't care smeg?

Sorry Salah but as a full grown man I find it weird getting excited about signing a 16 year old kid that I have never seen play football.

I'm sure there are lots of cases you wouldn't have seen a young player play for Liverpool. But then got excited when they broke in to the first team. Such as Owen before he did the dirty on us. A 17 year old ripping up the league and scoring bag fulls of goals. I watch the odd under 18's and 23's teams play so I can't see the issue in wanting to know what the club have done in the transfer market regardless of the age of player. If we buy and develop correctly then we can start producing young exciting players who will be learning the system that Klopp wants to use. Therefore better suited to playing for him. The age for me doesn't come in to it. ALL players where 16 at some point.

For a true supporter, knowing and following future, potentially outstanding players can be a an exciting part of the support. What's age got to do with it? What is far more weird is trying to classify importance of a footballing aspect, according to the age group you are in (I'm 59, by the way) .

But for someone like Smeg, who I assume (maybe wrongly) is focusing on winning the title this season, a 16 year old that won't impact the title race isn't exactly important in the immediate.

Okay. I see. So aside from classifying supporters according to age group, we also have a further classification according to who wants to win the title right now and who can wait another 5 years for the 16 year-olds to make it to the first team. Another argument that leads absolutely nowhere.

Or perhaps you should accept his point of view that he isn't exactly interested in a 16 year old. If that is different from yours, then it is. It neither makes you right nor does it make him wrong.

To be fair, Smeg is right. Buying a 16 year old footballer is like buying condoms after an argument with your missus. You hope to use them and the intention is there, but in reality you know its never going to happen unless some serious work has been put in and the stars align.

There’s nothing else happening on the transfer front so an academy player is all people have to get excited about (if it even happens/ ed) .

Realtofel. But that's the exact point. You hit the nail on the head. I have no problem whatsoever with his point of view. More than entitled to it. It's he who chose to label others' point of view as weird, from the start. It's just a matter of what's good for the goose is good for the gander and all that other stuff. That's why I said it was an argument leading to nowhere.

I’m not bothered because these young teenagers we sign VERY VERY rarely make an appearance for Liverpool and usually go on loan in the Championship before disappearing forever.
Recent Exception - Sterling.
