Not a single one of the wide forwards on our books last season aged between 18 & 21 in Jack Harrison's position will play at the same level Jack Harrison has

Welcome 🙂, that took me by surprise as I wrote that in December 2023, since then we’ve being able to see a lot more of young Harvey, he looked to be a key player in our u18s midfield last season developing nicely in the 6 /8 roles . Good luck to...

Yes Harvey’s dad is Manchester City full back John Foster, Harvey is 6’3 so he’s tall. I know this as I’m his mum 👍🏼

People make the argument about young players not getting a chance from managers as if the manager had a vendetta against them. Young players are not picked because they are not good enough yet ..most never will be The best young players will...

I’m taking it as positive , we need to nurture this kid and another who needs to be shown there’s a pathway for him . We do appear to be doing that with his appearance in the stadium test game, starting at u18s , trip to Abu Dhabi with the...

That Everton academy account has had to do more work in the last couple of weeks than they've done since it was started. Let's hope they still remember it exists when the season starts

Dixon? You meaning Armstrong? I know Dixon started a match but for me that was really down to injuries, he never showed enough really in pre season or afterwards to force himself into contention for me .

Depends if you're including those returning from loans in your count. The likes of Okoronkwo, Welch Armstrong and Metcalfe are never likely to play a 21s game again. Currently it's too many but that's obviously not going to be the case once they...

I would be looking at fast tracking Olayiwola into the u21s by Christmas, he’ll need a bit of time to adapt to full time training , although he’s looked pretty fit and not lacking in endurance last season. To attract and keep star youngsters we...

Agree with all of that. I should have clarified and said that’s “opening day” as opposed to the long term starting 11s. It will also be interesting to see who of the scholar class can step up, which may push some of the U21/U18 fringe players up...

Nsangou will surely be making the U18 side this year.

Was being reported he was going to Strasbourg for 8Mil the other day… hope we had a sell-on clause in there.

Think I read earlier he's getting sold to Strasbourg for more money shenanigans at Chelsea.

Won’t argue about OSS there, just get the feeling he will get picked over Finney for at least the first few months. I don’t know about experience though. There is no one on that squad who has more than a year of U21 under their belt. I know we...

Not having Armstrong available definitely made a difference in the back half of the cup run
