toontownman Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 They have certainly shipped out a few players in front of him which might help him. Being in close quarters if he can keep impressing with the U23 would help maybe get some first team training at least. Not ideal but hopefully he can keep his chin up and find some positives and maybe make chicken salad out of chicken crap. apbsmith and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too frustrated to say more... all I can say is he will keep his head up work harder and the next window is 11 weeks away... more in a day or two cheers Sorry for your disappointment. FWIW Getting regular minutes for Liverpool U23 for the next 11 weeks doesn't sound so bad. If he tears up U23 he will be impossible to ignore. As always thanks for the updates.

SoccMan Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I know that there is nothing that can compare to playing or even being around a club like Liverpool. Or even playing in the Championship or even another European league like say a Belgium, Portugal or even a Switzerland. Developing in an environment where soccer is everything. However, was just wondering if TFC had enquired about taking him on on a loan. I’m just curious because of the fact that they got another young Liverpool player from the Liverpool U23 with bringing on Gallacher on a loan deal a few weeks back.

Unnamed Trialist Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Why would anyone want a loan to MLS now to play for another 6 weeks, or in the winter window, to do three months pre-season? Mikmacdo and The Real Marc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzi44 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 If he kills it at the U23s I'm sure he'll get some first team training and maybe even be in the 18. That, combined with an injury or two, and this could turn out to be an ideal situation. You just never know. Good luck to Liam!

Tony Gallarcher just went on loan there, but he would be +3 weeks ahead of Liam. Maybe playing for +9 weeks instead of 6 makes a difference?

SthMelbRed Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Spitfire aside, nobody on this board wants to see Liam get into a game day 18 at Liverpool. Unfortunately, I just can't see it happening. Liverpool have a lot of top-tier internationals that are way ahead of him on the depth chart for the front 3 positions. Even with Brewster, Wilson, and Elliot moving, there's still Mane, Firmino, Salah, Jota, Minamino, Origi, and Shaqiri. In the past, Klopp has played Wijnaldum, Keita, and Curtis Jones, all ostensibly midfielders, in the front three when others have been missing. It would take an unprecedented injury crisis for Liam to get into a first-team matchday 18, let alone get onto the pitch, before the FA Cup starts up in January. There's no shame in failing to break into that group. They are all world-class international players. That being said, if Liam can keep crushing it in the U23s, he can hopefully earn a lot more time training at Melwood. If he can do that for up to 11 weeks, that experience might just be close to as valuable as going out on loan to a Championship club. I really hope that they're already working on a January loan, though, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, you're conveniently forgetting he'd have to self isolate 2 weeks. MLS is a waste, two good matches in a top 2nd tier would be worth more. costarg and gator 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gator Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 It's all hypothetical but a loan to TFC probably wouldn't have been a good move for Millar, it's late in the season and Vanney would have him anchored on the bench behind the likes of Endoh, Deleon and Mullins, better off playing with Liverpool U23 until January IMHO!

Lost 1-0. One of the older players in the side - captain and was performing well in that role. Missing some strikers I think but nothing ended up coming off despite him being important in a lot of the build-up. Their defence looked like their senior counterparts as of late: open to all comers on the break and probably lucky they only gave up one. gator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Looking for stuff on their game tonight and found this interview from yesterday: 'I was so happy to score my first goal - now I want to get more' Liam Millar is on the hunt for more goals after netting his first of the season in Liverpool U23s' 3-1 win over Chelsea last weekend. The Canada international kept his cool to slot home a penalty at the Academy and get off the mark in Premier League 2 – after he'd scored in style during a friendly victory against Salford City earlier in the month. "It was good for me to get a goal and I was very pleased to get one," Millar told Liverpoolfc.com. ... https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/academy/413620-i-was-so-happy-to-score-my-first-goal-now-i-want-to-get-more johnyb, Obinna and Strait Red 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
