Liverpool to stick with Rossiter, Williams for Swansea Cup clash

Liverpool No2 Colin Pascoe admits they will stick with the kids for their Capital One Cup tie with Swansea City.

Swansea promise to provide a step up in class tonight but Pascoe believes the teenagers could handle it.

"They've been around the first-team squad for a couple of months and have been training with us," he told the Liverpool Echo.

"There's always an opportunity to give youngsters a chance in the Capital One Cup. We'd have no qualms about playing them.

"You saw young Jordan Rossiter last time, the coolness he showed in that role and Jordan Williams did well when he came on.

"They were both very calm in what they did. For a young lad to take a penalty in front of the Kop and score shows you the calmness he has."
