Good morning and welcome to that most exciting of days. Tuesday.

Sorry, I mean Transfer Deadline Day. The day when all kinds of deals go down. Players are traded like cattle, Premier League slave ships buffet about in the choppy waters scouring for a bargain here or cast-off there, oh, the fun we'll have.

Like cooking teriyaki chicken in a hot tub, yesterday's match against Stoke didn't turn into the kind of party we'd all hoped for. Luckily, it wasn't the only football played by Liverpool this week, with the first game— the u19 NextGen outing against Norwegian side Molde—likely seen by just about nobody compared to yesterday's frustrating showing at the Britannia.

The Liverpool U19 squad has recorded an impressive 4-0 win at the NextGen series away to Molde.

The goal scorers were Toni Silva with 2, Conor Coady with a penalty and Raheem Sterling.

We'd like to wish the boys all the best for the future.
