Liverpool have genius rule that all youngsters who won Carabao Cup final must follow

Even after winning the Carabao Cup, Liverpool’s talented young players still have a lot of rules to follow.

Virgil van Dijk’s winning goal in extra time against Chelsea at Wembley gave the Reds their eleventh League Cup victory in history.

Jurgen Klopp, the departing manager, called the victory “the most special” because Liverpool won the cup without several first-team players.

Mo Salah, Diogo Jota, Alisson, Darwin Nunez, Dominik Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones, and Trent Alexander-Arnold were all sidelined, and Ryan Gravenberch left the game with a serious injury sustained from a bad challenge by Moises Caicedo in the first half.

Liverpool’s youth gained exposure as a result, and as Klopp’s offspring performed well, Bobby Clark, James McConnell, Jayden Danns, and Jarell Quansah were all brought on.

Conor Bradley, who had a breakout season at Anfield, became one of the team’s more seasoned players.

Liverpool is producing a lot of diamonds, and the team has policies in place to make sure they stay grounded.

Jamie Carragher, a club veteran and academy alum, and Alex Inglethorpe, head of Liverpool’s academy, discussed everything in an interview with The Telegraph.

Young players are limited in the type of vehicle they can drive and are not subject to a wage restriction, with the highest salary being £50,000 annually.

Additionally, players are required to turn in their phones at the front of the training facility, according to a rule that sounds like it belongs in a school.

“It is a safety thing as much as anything,” Inglethorpe clarified.

“While I don’t want lads who recently passed their test to drive these large pieces of metal, I also got tired of seeing Range Rovers parked in a lot. Should someone arrive in possession of one, they will park it next door.”

“We have a fairly archaic pay structure,” he continued. We assign tasks to them. We instruct them to return their phone before they leave for the day at 8:30 a.m.You were a more experienced player. When a young athlete enters the locker room, you know how it is. Respect for the pathway is what you desire. They must first earn what is given to them. Later on, everything else will be alright. You have to perform on the pitch in order to get there.
