So many young prodigies and supposed generational talents will always emerge, yet can be lost within the shuffle of upper tier entities.

Observations: Heroes and Villans
Liverpool made it through a very chaotic game to manage a 2-1 victory against Aston Villa, but it was far from easy. This was incredibly stressful watching, and it started right from the off. Jurgen Klopp will be very irritated by the manner in which the game began, however, as the Reds conceded after just 3 minutes. In the build-up to the goal, Ollie Watkins was clearly offside, but the assistant didn't flag it and play continued. About a minute …

Trent continues to emulate Gerrard after slump in form at 22
The date was November 12th, 2002, and Liverpool needed to win away to FC Basel to get through their Champions League group.
Gerard Houllier's men found themselves 3-0 down before the half-hour mark had even arrived, with one player worse than anyone else on the pitch.

A dreadful 45 minutes from Gerrard saw him …

Thiago Influence Can Lift Jordan Henderson To Old Self
Jordan Henderson is an extremely versatile player, as we've seen throughout the entirety of his Liverpool career.
Whether it's been as the midfield anchor, as an energetic, box to box tornado of engine room intensity or -- as we saw in his first season with the Reds, under Kenny Dalglish -- as a right midfielder in midfield four, the captain has been a consistent performer for most of the time since his summer 2011 move from Sunderland.

How James Milner became an unexpected Liverpool hero
This week marked the five year anniversary of James Milner's arrival at Liverpool, making the switch from Manchester City on a free transfer.
After weeks of speculation as to where the Yorkshireman would end up, it was former boss Brendan Rodgers who managed to persuade Milner to choose Anfield over any other potential destination.
While securing Millie's services was seen as a brilliant piece of business, especially on a free deal, there was no way of knowing just how much …

The What Could Have Been Liverpool XI: Attack
There have been several players in Liverpool’s recent past who have enjoyed the best football of their careers at Anfield and inscribed themselves into the club’s history with memorable performances.
