We've 3 very exciting attacking midfielders that will be stepping up from the U16's to the U18's regularly next season.

 

Will Alves

Brandon Cover

Logan Briggs

I'll be sure to watch them when they are on or get called up into the development squad. Any promising strikers in these age groups apart from Wakeling?

....what is the chance of watching U23s next season on the LCFC TV !!!

Hard to believe that it was taken off, I did not think it was down to Covid, did I read that there was too much criticism coming from this forum, which caused them to stop broadcasting games.

I want someone in the press like Tanner, Bourne, Stringer or Blackwell to challenge the club on what's happened there, was very odd.

Seen his name pop up a few times now. Looks another decent talent in the academy. Think he's a centre mid...?

Centre mid/defensive mid - there was one game against Chelsea last season where he came up against Billy Gilmour, kept him quiet and had a really good game

 

Captain for the under 18s as well

Been told we’re signing Suphanat Mueanta (Thai striker 18) let’s just wait and see 😬

He plays for the team who Top was seen at an event holding up a sponsored shirt of theirs.

Said back in April we should get him!

 

Although my reasoning was due to him being quality on FM

Didn’t we have him on trial?

Thai League finished at the end of March, so I guess just a matter of whether it actually happened or not

Surprised they released Yfeko, not long had him and he did fairly well by all accounts. Not flush with left footed defenders either at that level.

He has been on trials with Southampton and Cov recently, would be interested to find out if it was us or him that chose not to extend, he looked decent in the few u23 games I saw him play in

Abdulai only joined a few months ago from Celtic, obviously weren't impressed. 

[lcfc sheff]

Jesus we plan on keeping Sam Hughes in the u23s for all his career? 

[An Away Move]

I’ve seen some clips of Will Alves playing as I know his dad and it would not surprise me in the least to see him make it to the first team. Very exciting, skilful player. I also asked his dad if the name is Al-ves or Alves (as we used to call his dad). Apparently it is the latter, not that it stops all the coaches calling him Al-ves! It does have a touch more flair which matches his game!
