John Barnes has urged Liverpool to trust in youth, using Arsenal as an example, with the likes of Darwin Nunez, Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho finding their feet in the starting XI.
The former Liverpool star believes the Reds need to keep the faith with their young stars and they will soon reap the benefits as the winning squad slowly makes changes.
Arsenal missed out on the Champions League last season, but are now sitting at the top of the Premier League having lost just one game this term. The likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have been stars for the Gunners this season.

Barnes spoke to bonuscodebets.co.uk about the players who are set to form the Liverpool squad for the upcoming seasons.
"(Harvey) Elliott, (Luis) Diaz, (Darwin) Nunez and (Fabio) Carvalho are the future of Liverpool," said Barnes.
"These are the players that, if they are treated right and supported, even if they don’t necessarily want to win the league or the Champions League.
"We stick with them and support them and we can then see the benefits sooner rather than later. As the Arsenal players are showing. Last season they didn’t qualify for the Champions League and the young players were a bit inconsistent."
"But because the fans have stuck with them and everything was positive, they are now reaping the rewards of that and hopefully Liverpool will be the same. Although I feel Liverpool are ahead of them in that stage anyway. They don’t have as far to come as Arsenal did.”
