****************************************************************

Liverpool youth coach Rodolfo Borrell has revealed how surprised he was
by the poor quality of the club's academy when he arrived at the club in
2009.

Borrell, who came with Jose Segura from Barcelona, believes it could
take another two years before a player breaks through into the first
team.

"The reality of what we found here was unacceptable," Borrell told BBC
Sport.

Benitez has expressed his frustration at the lack of talent coming
through and moves to restructure the youth structure began when former
Liverpool winger Steve Heighway stepped down as academy coach in April
2007.

I believe, on this occasion, your fishing Pope - you know that our
previous manager didnt even speak to the academy, and let things
fester.
You also know that one of Benitez much published increase in power was
to take responsibility of the academy - and now your seeing action.

We like your bile but dont let it become obsessive, as that makes you
look silly
