I get the idea behind this, the kids been great when he plays.
But maybe they’re trying to avoid another Sterling or Owen, great players who burned bright very young and were fucked by 30 pretty much…

Love stevie but rio isn’t the answer. Just look at how Rio gave up with the press on Andre for the goal. Rio also gave the ball away loads. Slot just needs to bring him on earlier which I think he is starting to do.
The mistake from the club was relying on Gakpo and Salah without real competition. Let’s see if they learn this summer

That’s how you risk Rio getting injured and then have no choice but to play Gakpo the full 90 minutes.

So now they have to start relying on someone under 18?

I kinda feel that gerrard is hoping to be appointed as interim if slot gets the sack.. he has been on slots case too harshly.

Slot might not be good but do not under any circumstances take advice from Gerrard

Playing a 17 year old week in and week out in the prem is going to fucking destroy his body. I love Rio and he is playing levels above Gakpo, but no, he shouldn’t start.

Two awful managers telling each other what to do
