Seems a bit of a waste to keep them in the reserves. At the risk of repeating myself on every page in this thread, we may be going down the Spurs route: chuck 'em straight into the first team. Skipp, Walkers-Peters and Winks never went on loan but ending up playing in the first team. It aint happened yet unless you count Hamza (who had two half season loan spells at Burton and then spent about a year in the u23s before playing against Man City). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Johnson will go straight to 1st team involvement - good feeling about Ughelemba as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucey Posted 14 January 2019 Share Posted 14 January 2019 Looks like Knight has introduced the wolf game to the U23s. All the better for future first team integration, I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Russ (recently signed from Chesterfield) has always played 2-3 years above, Luke Thomas (recently played for England youths), Terel Pennant (Jermaine's nephew, hopefully not as much of a coont), Sidni Tavares (very classy Portuguese central midfielder but will need to gain the physical attributes to match as he gets older) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not really featured for the U18's just been used sparingly as a sub this season for the U23's. Will probably start tomorrow night in the PL" Cup. Apparently he's still very highly rated, wonder if he's ready yet for a loan move to League One or Two, he's very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he could do that with no football brain. Not saying he will definitely make it, but I am more optimistic than you about him. Personally, I think it is too easy for him at U23 level.

Foxxed Posted 15 January 2019 Share Posted 15 January 2019 Arlott-John and Flynn with the goals. Luke Thomas setup Arlott-John. iirc Thomas is our very promising left back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a huge shame, as with Josh Eppiah too. Certainly think Eppiah wouldn't be too far off the 1st team if he could stay fit. Sadly, I think it's a reoccurring back injury? Not 100% sure but that's what I have heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
