BREAKING NEWS: “He’s way better than Jude and Camavinga and the reason he has reached his potential is because of poor management. Arne Slot did a terrible job managing the lad. If he gave him more playing time he would have helped the team to score” – Joe Cole believes that Liverpool have a player on their roster who has the potential to be as good as if not better Jude Bellingham after he watched his performance against Bournemouth

“Why was he on the bench in the first place?”

Cole’s criticism of Liverpool’s manager, Arne Slot, has reignited discussions about the club’s youth development strategy. Slot, who took over last season, has been commended for his tactical skills and ability to optimize his squad’s performance. However, doubts have emerged regarding his management of young players, particularly this talented midfielder.

Fans have echoed Cole’s concerns on social media, voicing their frustration about the player’s limited game time. “This kid is a gem, and we’re just letting him gather dust on the bench. It’s infuriating!” one supporter tweeted. Another added, “Imagine what he could do with regular starts. Slot needs to wake up and smell the coffee. We can’t afford to waste this talent.” Cole emphasized the midfielder’s potential, stating, “He’s got the technical ability, the vision, the physicality, and most importantly, the right mentality. But he needs someone to believe in him and give him the chance to show what he can do.”

As Liverpool looks ahead, the pressure mounts on Slot and the club’s management to make informed choices regarding their young talents’ development. With the January transfer window approaching, there are fears that the player might seek opportunities elsewhere if his situation doesn’t improve.

Currently, the emphasis is on the team’s performance and their efforts to ascend the Premier League table. However, if Liverpool aims to compete for major titles, they cannot overlook the promise of their young stars. Cole’s remarks should act as a wake-up call for the club—there is a valuable player in their ranks, and it’s time to nurture that potential.

Cole concluded, “This kid could be a generational talent. But he won’t get there sitting on the bench. Liverpool need to give him the platform to shine. If not, they’ll regret it for years to come.” The responsibility now lies with Liverpool, and all eyes are on them to capitalize on this rare talent before it’s too late.
