Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has suggested the England-Under 21 side should not be using players they have already helped into the seniors.<\/p>\n
Andy Carroll has been named in Stuart Pearce’s provisional 40-man squad for next month’s European Championships finals in Denmark, even though he has broken into Fabio Capello’s senior squad in the past few months.<\/p>\n
Dalglish insists he does not want to become embroiled in a club-versus-country row, but he did outline his views on the set-up as a whole.<\/p>\n
“For me, the benefit of having younger teams is to use them to get the best players into the full team – exactly the same way it is at club level as it is at international,” he said.<\/p>\n
“Andy has played a number of games for the younger teams, Under-21s and Under-19s, and he has played for the full international team, so it has certainly served its purpose in his development.<\/p>\n
“The important thing is not to win a competition, it is to get people progressing through it (the system).”<\/p>\n
Dalglish added that the emergence of teenagers John Flanagan and Jack Robinson into the Liverpool first team in recent weeks is more important than success for their Under-18 side, who missed out on topping their group after drawing with Wolves on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n
“Our youth team have just drawn 2-2 and finished second in their league when they had an opportunity to go first,” he said. “I suppose we’ll get the blame because we have taken Flanagan and Robinson away from them.<\/p>\n
“But for us that is more progress than what it would have been to have won the youth division they were in and got no players through.<\/p>\n
“I don’t see it being any different for anyone else.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
