LFC: Academy Players who could get the call up by next season

With Brendan Rodgers calling up many youth players this season like Sterling, Suso and Wisdom to the senior squad, we would think that there would be many more to come by next season. We look at some that could make the cut .


1.


Jordon Ibe (17,Winger/Striker)


What an emerging talent. Ibe is emerging as a star with the Under 21's and 18's. His previous goals against Leeds in the Youth Cup could give Brendan a thought for his Pre-Season squad in summer.


















2.


Adam Morgan (18,Striker)


Already Been called up this season by Rodgers, Adam Morgan may have fallen down the pecking order a bit lately since the signing of Sturridge. In my opinion plays best as center forward, but also plays on the wing for Alex Inglethorpe's Under 21's.








3.


Conor Coady (20, Center Midfielder)


The Under 21 Captain . Conor has been involved with Brendan's squad very regularly this season,but has never really broke into the team yet. Very unlucky in my opinion but with the number of players in that position, we can see how. I can see a bright future for Coady, maybe a future captain for Liverpool?




4.


Joao Carlos Teixeira (20, Attacking Midfielder)


Playmaker. Upon arrival, a lot of people expected big things from the man from Lisbon, but injury hit him for the first year at Melwood. Now fully fit, we are seeing the best out of the pacy AM. A lot may not agree, but in my opinion a better all round player than Suso. He can spot a pass and has got the pace too. A regular in training with the senior squad.










5.


Ryan McLaughlin (18, Right Back)


Very promising right back. This season McLaughlin has really broke into the Under 21 squad since Wisdom's call into the senior squad. In my opinion past Flanagan in the pecking order. The only reason that could stop him from breaking into the first squad faster is that there are players like Johnson,Kelly and Wisdom in front of him. Can Brendan see something more from him though?

6.


Michael Ngoo (20, Striker)


Currently at loan at Hearts in Scotland, Michael Ngoo is proving why he is talked about so much. He has already hit the ground running and rumours circling him around Celtic and Neil Lennon wanting him at the club. With a tall stature and a silky presence in his play, he could easily be the next Drogba if he keeps working hard. One to look out for for Brendan.


7.


Samed Yesil (18, Striker)


A Striker who has already been involved in Brendan's side this season. Early on,Yesil was involved in the 2-1 win over W. Brom in the Capital One Cup and has been in the Under 21 squad too. Yesil was ruled out for the rest of the season due to injury, but you can't take away the skill and eye for goal this young lad has. A great finisher and scores frequently for the German Under 19's too.




    













There you have it. The 7 academy players most likely to be in the mix for a call up by Brendan. I may have missed a couple like Sinclair and Dunn, but they might be included next time. Right now the fight is still on for Rodgers' red man for the push for top 4, and as people might say it's impossible, just look at Istanbul 2005, and think again.
