Ric Flair Posted 30 October 2020 Posted 30 October 2020 Looks like we played Wolves U23's yesterday and won 4-0, not sure if it was just a friendly? Not seen anything official about it.

Ric Flair Posted 31 October 2020 Posted 31 October 2020 U18's 6-1 down away at Brighton, getting absolutely bull hammered by all and sundry this season.

Our youth groups were really good last season U18s finished 4th U23s finished 2nd Now since we have loaned out a good chunk of our u23s and promoted some from the u18s to replace them, both squads seem to be really suffering 1
sdb Posted 31 October 2020 Posted 31 October 2020 Doesn't feel like there's many rough gems in the younger teams at the mo. I know the Pennant's and Taraves are highly regarded but they don't even seem to start that many games? Am I wrong? Surely it should be a real focus given the training ground investment and likely lack of transfer funds for a while.

Kian Pennant is 16 and in the U18's, would be good to see him push for the U23's in the next year. Terell is being completely wasted aged 18 and flitting between the U23's and then back in the U18's. He was the U18's standout player last season.

Most likely due to the squad bubbles the club has in place, don't want players moving from the youth squads into the first team and risking Covid

They youth teams are losing most weeks, what makes you think they're good enough to be on the bench for the first team? 1
The_Rorab Posted 3 November 2020 Posted 3 November 2020 Chituru Odunze has apparently been called up to the US national team for their next 2 games! 3

So i'd hazard a guess this might be a locational pick rather than any sort of talent he's shown this season. Squad filler.

Yeah Kasey Keller has been asked to go in nets after doing some TV work over here.

Due to covid, the US national team is only calling up players based in Europe. I'm not sure we even have another keeper. That said, it's a great opportunity for him. If he can prove himself in camp, he may warrant playing in the olympic team.
AjcW Posted 3 November 2020 Posted 3 November 2020 Just now, Collymore said: Yeah Kasey Keller has been asked to go in nets after doing some TV work over here. The only other reasoning would be to get people capped. But both games are friendlies so Odunze for example could still qualify for England

Yeah this is what I assumed it would be about. To be fair it seems a lot on twitter are happier watching this selection than those in the MLS who would also normally be picked.

moore_94 Posted 5 November 2020 Posted 5 November 2020 Both Leshabela and Fitzhugh make it onto the bench tonight vs Braga 2
Collymore Posted 7 November 2020 Posted 7 November 2020 Just seeing our U18s are currently losing 4-1 to Chelsea at HT. We've played 6 and half games so far and conceded 29 goals and scored 9. That's like nearly averaging conceding 5 goals a game! I'm sorry but what the hell is going on there? How can it be so bad? 1 1
