Thomas Ince Player Thread

It looks like Paul Ince  is going to get his wish that his son Tom will get his chance to play for the first team,Roy Hodgson stated that young Ince will feature in pre season games and looks a promising  candidate to progress  into the first team.Having watched young Tom on a few occasions I think he could make the step up but is he like many others gonna get a fair chance eg Pachecho,Kelly to but two.Lets just hope that if Roy is going to play some of the lads that they will feature in the prem this season thus giving hope to rest of our youth system.

Definitely one of the stars for me last year in the youth team.
Hopefully we have room for both him and Eccleston but if not Ince would be my preferred choice at left midfield

All that money we blown on youth/young players, nice to see it's not going to waste.  Quite promising bunch coming through. Easily the best batch of players as a whole, in the last decade.

Roy will probably have it forced on him that the youngsters have to get a chance once the assets start getting stripped. I wish Tom Ince well, and I like the thought of youngsters getting a chance in the first team. But it has to be for the right reasons, and when things like selling your last left back start happening you start to wonder.

But I'll be watching the progress of our youngsters closely in the coming season. Just not from inside Anfield.

NOT A PENNY MORE

Can't wait for Tom Ince to get an opportunity under woy. Hopefully he rises to the occasion as he impressed me in the under 18's last season 

hasnt roy said something about tom getting a chance in the Europa league qualifier? Something about in an ideal world tom wouldnt play in games of this magnitude but you never know. Lob him in at the deep end roy see if the lad can swim

Tom Ince is a great prosspect look forward to seeing him play, rummors have it that Chelsea are sniffing around.......

Back in 1995 Roy Hodgson built his Inter Milan team around a tough tackling midfielder by the name of Paul Ince.


Fast forward to the present and the new Liverpool manager could yet help Ince junior develop into an Anfield star of the future.

Indeed, Hodgson's career seems to have come full circle for those that reside in the Ince household - a fact that hasn't been lost on Academy scholar Tom, who produced some eye-catching cameos at the club's pre-season training camp in Switzerland.

The 18-year-old admits that he shared a wry smile with his parents when Hodgson was installed as the new boss and now hopes to make his own mark on the man who once barked orders at his father from the San Siro dugout.

"Roy was at Inter Milan when my Dad joined them from Man United, so I know him from back then," Ince told Liverpoolfc.tv during an exclusive chat.

"He's told me that I've grown up a lot since - I'm a lot taller!

"I have to admit it was a bit weird at first though. The first thing I thought was that he had managed my Dad and now here he was managing me too! I heard him say that it made him feel old and that made me laugh.

"In all seriousness though, I have a totally different style of play to my Dad. I don't think I'm as mouthy as him either, so I'm sure me and Roy will get on well!

"I've just got to be my own man. I must impress him in my own right. Hopefully the 10 days in Switzerland have helped me to introduce myself to Roy and I can now go on to impress him."

Sounds like a grounded kid. Would love him to do well for us

I've played against him when he was at Villa if i remember correctly

Tom Ince has joined Notts County on loan.

Lets hope he can get a few games under his belt, maybe even grab a goal, will only do his confidence and development the world of good. A few games and kicks to toughen him up.

I'm sure his da will pick him

I'm sure his da will pick him

they always do!

Good luck to him, he's a very talented young lad, hope he gets some good valued experience at Notts County, under the guidance of his Dad. Lets hope he does come back to us though and we don't lose another excellent prospect.

Good luck kid, Hope ye come back

Will do the lad a world of good, and gain some valuable experience.

For sure his father will give him a lot of match practise & all give some experience.

Wise move, considering Notts County are a top League 1 team and it won't hurt that his manager is now his dad

Yea he is a class act. 1st team action would be good for him.

Would rather see him get first team games then sit in the 18's or bench for the resssssss
