Rhys Williams Player Thread (D) (On loan at Morecombe)

Much better last night.

Much better last night.

Yeah, thought he looked much more composed. And to be fair, how nervous would we all have been at 18 with making our first team debut for Liverpool, on fairly short notice? Some mistakes are to be expected, but the improvement over one week, against a stronger opponent, is promising.

I imagine he will continue training with the first team at Melwood and everyone says those training matches midweek are the best competition these guys face, going up against Mo, Sadio and Bobby, I reckon so.

Thought he was class - mini Virgil.

Hope he continues working hard and develops into a proper baller.

Add to that being paired alongside the best CB in the world. It must've added a bit to his stress and desire to do well.

Really excited about this kid. Looks like he belongs already.

Would ye start him Saturday presuming fabinho is out and Matips isn’t ready?? Or have we any other choice?

Thought he looked good tonight but surprised Midtylland didn’t try get at him more. West Ham certainly will whether Antonio is fit or not after that hamstring tweak at the weekend.

Well we won't really have any other choice mate which is a concern in itself.

Like I said in another thread, if we are forced to play him, I pray he has a decent game, because after the abuse Neco got after a game we won 7-2, I’d hate to see what would happen if a youngster, who shouldn’t be starting, made a mistake that cost the game, would be so unfair on him.

Must be scaling 6'5 the lad us he?

Time for the lad to stand up and show us what he's got. You can try and wrap them in cotton wool but eventually if they want to prove it these are the exact times to go out and do it.

He's doing so well

Now that's living the dream

Now that's living the dream

He looks scared of her mate! 

He looks scared of her mate! 

Just about spit out a mouthful of soda at work when I read this, because he totally does.

That mean lady must have ripped a hole in his trouser leg.

hahhaaahh that's a classic mate!!!

Take your chance kid, your club needs you

Should be a proud young man tonight

Take a bow son!
One misjudgment of a long ball but didn’t put a foot wrong.

Great positioning today, seems to be learning from Fab, is getting into the right place to intercept the pass which is key.

Good lad

This kid is good! Did you see that pass to Robbo on the action leading to Mo's goal? That was just something out of VVD or Gomez's drawer.

One mistake all game long playing against arguably the best duo in the league who is in a lethal form. Oh and that's a PL debut too, let that sink in. F***ing quality this lad is.

fantastic performance from this talent

Thsi kid is a gem.
