    Dyche wasn’t happy about his kicking, wants him to use his right foot more , perfect opportunity to practice.

    The idea of the new “ Premier League 2” format of amalgamating the old two divisions and no relegation is that clubs would be able to play their most talented Academy players without fear. We’re currently 4th from bottom with no chance of getting into the playoffs , top 16 , or next season’s PL...

    Without wishing to open up the “ young goalkeeper “ discussion too much , it seems 21 year old Zan-Luk Leban played a huge part in keeping the team he has been loaned to , Farsely Celtic , from being relegated . You just never know with young gk s , he looked rubbish when he first appeared ...

    1st year Scholars featuring at u21 has been disappointing too, only Armstrong has started regularly, Catesby and Morgan before his injury, have also featured off the bench , Pickford on the bench but I don’t think he’s played . We seem to have lost that momentum we had when Whitaker, Price...

    In the paper it says “ “ replaced by Sean McAllister , the Everton loanee, who is just back from treatment back at the Toffees.” No other mention in the match. I guess our facilities are superior to Caley’s, nice they’ve got him back so quickly , they’ll need McAllister they’ve got two vital...

    Yeah Ferguson is in the paper today confirming he’s returned with a thigh injury . With three games left for Caley Thistle I guess he won’t be returning.

    Lukjanciks is 16 so he would likely have been offered a Scholarship by now and been able to sign it . I’m not too clear, but I believe he’ll be on some kind of u16 contract until end of June so couldn’t sign for another club until then with out a transfer fee being agreed. After June he becomes...

    Well not all . From above : “ the Blues boss was asked whether he had seen any youngsters he believed were currently good enough to help a squad that has gone winless in 10 league games.” He gave an honest answer and moved on . I wasn’t stunned by his answer, it was true , I personally think...

    Absolutely. I suspect very few regulars on this thread would disagree with the context of his statement that he didn’t have any youngsters good enough to put straight into the first team at that time. Taken as a straight forward statement it’s true. My disappointment is that nobody then asked “...

    2-2 , Kouyate , assist from Metcalfe with a neat chip through , he continues to look the pick of this bunch, Metcalfe that is.. Ooops . 2-3 , Great goal for Blackburn but poor defensive header from Welch lobbing it to the middle of the box

    Dunno, I’ve always seen defensive mid as his best position, although his assist for that goal proves me wrong a bit. I don’t have a lot of faith that we have the coaches who can convert him to a CB with position -specific coaching though, Hopefully something will come of it and it’s not just a...

    I thought the “ Onyango at CB” was a most interesting move for the Palace game, 6 ft 3in , young, needs to fill out a bit , but if we provide him with specific coaching and development it may just pay off.
