He’s training with 1st, he’s actually the picture after Brandon Cover on this weeks training pics…why he don’t make a squad I guess is because we have Daka & then looks like Silko has put his name in the frame for RW 2nd half replacement now McAteer has gone

He's not even playing u21s though. Potentially close to a loan perhaps or injured?

Ironically just signed up to the same agents as Cifuentes 😂

Hopefully that means he's signing a deal with us.

Hopefully he gets a spot on the bench soon then.

Weird that Evans isn't in either squad tonight. Guessing he must be on the fringes of the first team? Can he go on loan now? Can't remember if 17 is old enough.

going off of FM I think it is once they have signed a pro contract, but I could be talking out of my arse

1-0 Braybrooke penalty

[studentofthegame]

2-0 Ryan Donnelly after coming on as a sub

[moore_94]

You absolutely love to see it

Evans was back up to anyone on the bench. He’ll get his chance

Was on the pitch after the senior game. Maybe there was an injury worry that meant he was close to making the bench?

was Evans on the pitch after the game with the likes of BDCR? wasn't sure if it was him or Alves

It was.

 

Really hope Evans gets his chance soon. Whether it’s because of contract issues or even just Marti felt Evans was a bit too raw in pre season. Proud of Monga and Page, Evans next up.

the fact he was there suggests he's very much in the thoughts, maybe Marti sees him as a striker option hence why Silko has gotten the second winger spot?

Shame that alves doesn’t appear to be in the managers plans.

Good starts to the season for the under 21s and under 18s

Biggest injustice is Hutchinson not yet in the U21s

[honeybradger]

What happened to Josh King? No longer with us or injured, i thought with a couple good loans he would have an outside chance of making it here.

Especially when we are playing guys like Opoku and Richards up front for them, need to be out on loan to give the chances to players like Hutchinson

Surely only a matter of time before he’s promoted? Not like the u21s are strong in that position
