I hate it when it's a senior team matchday and it's like 'VARDY!' and then goes on to explain a chance that wasn't even that close to scoring Was a good save in the first half though to be fair.

Foxxed Posted 1 October 2016 Share Posted 1 October 2016 Hamza did well again. He's becoming a first team regular, and for his age, in the championship, it's fairly impressive. He has fairly good ratings on whoscored, too. Hopefully he continues as such for the rest of the season. We might see a twenty year old defensive midfielder with a season's championship experience for us on the bench next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted 2 October 2016 Share Posted 2 October 2016 Are the poor results across all age groups starting to concern anyone else? We're supposed to be cat. 1, and all of our youth teams are near the bottom of the table. I've not seen much of them this season, but previously the football has also been poor, favouring grinding out results over technical development- has there been a change in approach? On the plus side, I've seen a bit of Choudhury this season, and apart from a couple of wayward passes and the odd defensive lapse he looks pretty good. Callum Elder also sounds like he's doing okay for a Brentford side who are flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Fox Posted 2 October 2016 Share Posted 2 October 2016 Callum Elder has picked up quite a serious sounding knee injury and could be out for a while. A real shame because he was going really well in the championship and looks a good prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends how far you go back when we had the likes of Gradel in there we played some decent attacking football however when I've seen them lately, admittedly on tv they just seem to be playing goofball probably trying to emulate the 1st team but without someone like mahrez to add some skill to the team it's very basic, boring and seemingly not very successful. I'd like to know what the overall club strategy is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PL, European, International? I also think the mess is partly down to the number of competitions we're involved in and the general mess academy football is in across the UK. We also don't seem to have a style we've adopted across the academy which is potentially making it harder for players to transition between the games to ultimately get to the first team.

Who is the current head, is it Rudkin or is he director? Hope it is someone good and not a dinosaur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 3 October 2016 Share Posted 3 October 2016 Will be monitoring this. Very intrigued to see who it is. Hope it's someone of the Idiakez mould. Speaking of Idiakez, hasn't he gone from Derby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightySystem Posted 18 October 2016 Share Posted 18 October 2016 U19 2-1 up against Copenhagen who had the goalie sent off for handball. Sounds like 2 good goals from Pascanu and Ndwuku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightySystem Posted 18 October 2016 Share Posted 18 October 2016 3-1 now Ndwuku again and another stunner again. Edit: Just going off twitter so it could just be a five yard tap in which would be amazing anyway due to the form of our youth this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 18 October 2016 Share Posted 18 October 2016 Ndwuku has gone a bit quiet the last 18 months or so, would love to know if he's still considered as highly rated as he was. About 3 years ago, Muzzy Izzet told me he was the best kid they'd ever seen down at Leicester which I thought was extraordinary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost his place in the England squad too. Been on the bench recently in development games. Hopefully he turns it around and doesn't waste his talent.

desertfox2 Posted 18 October 2016 Share Posted 18 October 2016 The one that surprised me was Panayiotou. Outscored Rashford and was winning awards now on the bench at Barrow via Raith Rovers and being released. Who was the last player that came through the academy and we actually sold for any decent amount? Schlupp almost to West Brom in the summer, Chilwell nearly left but can't really think of who was before. Guess it shows progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
