Lineker's Left Foot Posted 19 October 2019 Share Posted 19 October 2019 26 minutes ago, Foxxed said: I wonder who in the u23s we'll see break through next. I'd go for Knight to get some championship experience, enter the first team squad as a utility player then start for us once there's space for a box to box midfielder. Luke Thomas to get a loan come Christmas, stay in the England squads and become our left back in two years. To early to say about Hirst and Regba for me. And Ughelumba and Clark have outside chances. Benk is a bit of a mystery to me tbh. And I've not seen enough of the u18s. For Under 18s I guess Terrell Pennant, Oli Ewing and Sidnei Tavares. As you seem to know your young players, always wondered who is in their Under 16s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benk is a bit of a mystery to me tbh. And I've not seen enough of the u18s. Assuming Mendy leaves at the end of the season, we will have space in the squad for a creative CM back up to Tielemans/Maddison/Praet. Leshabela could fulfill that role. I think Knights next step in his development is a season loan in the championship. After that he may work his way into our squad as a utility player. Beyond those 2, I think we’ll be waiting a while before the next break through, most likely Tavares & Pennant imo. Having said that, Brendan likes a small senior squad. If we’re in Europe, he may utilise the youth in cup games like Liverpool do. They have 23 senior players and started 5 u23s against MK Dons. If we go down a similar route, we may get a few surprises.

Played well and seemed a nice chap in an interview I watched. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunderland maybe? The same Sunderland with Will Grigg, Chris Maguire and Marc Mcnulty 3 of the best strikers in league 1? They only play one striker, he wouldnt get near that team. Sunderland might be a shambles but its not down to a lack of firepower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some Sunderland fan complaining about their strikers, maybe Will Grigg is old or something. I don't know the point was to find a team with no good strikers.

Great to see Eppiah back in the goals Fantastic goal too. Wins the ball back near the halfway line, dummies the defender to cut inside and hit it into the top corner. Still one of our most talented prospects despite the injuries, hopefully he can find some form! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabulous player....great work rate, great awareness, quick, strong and holds the ball up well.......makes defenders lives very difficult! Ironically, always been short of goals....but not recently! Career has been ravaged by injuries past 3-4 seasons. Hopefully can stay injury free from now and push on again as great potential 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he continues to impress and gets a couple of early FA Cup round games, I know it might sound crazy but he could step up and be back up to Vardy and let Iheanacho go. Not sure we'd risk that with his injury problems just yet but I honestly think he will be good enough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
