Liverpool reserves coach Borrell: Winning as important as development

Liverpool reserves coach Rodolfo Borrell says winning is as important as developing their young players.

Borrell is in his first season as second-string coach.

He told liverpoolfc.tv: "Our main aim is to produce players for our first team. We want to make them grow, as individuals and as a team.

"We want to improve their understanding of the game. Firstly they have to impress in the reserve team and secondly they must be ready when they are called upon to train with the first team, and thirdly they have to handle the pressure that surrounds playing in the first team.

"I have also never hid the fact that winning is very important especially at Liverpool Football Club. This was my philosophy when I was at Barcelona.

"The lads must try to win every game we play, but obviously the success will be if we produce players for our first team."
