Why do the u21s have a month off?
Whoever drew up the fixture schedule needs fired

Man City u18s hit post after 12minutes, a few saves from our keeper,
Catesby, Beaumont-Clark and amstrong had shots for us

Given the performances of our U21's I'm quite okay with this.

Full Time

Everton u18s 0 Man City u18s 0


City dont win their 1st game of the season
This is Everton's 1st time of not scoring in an u18s game since doing so at home v Man City in May 2021,
Its also Man Citys 1st 0-0 in 3 years and only their 4th in over 12years

I’m thinking it was two seasons ago as our u16 keeper Doug Lukjanciks played in both those those finals so he was u14 at the time, so end of 21/22 season I’d guess. On that basis the then u15s are our new first year Scholars playing at u18 and the u14s are now Schoolboy u16s.

It’s always difficult to tell who is promising as we see so little at these ages so you make judgement calls . This can be based things like are they playing in their International age Group ? Lukjanciks was with England u17 recently , a first year attacker George Morgan was with Wales, there may be others I’ve missed , but nobody is standing out . Another useful judgement is are they playing up for Everton u18s when they were Schoolboys. Last season there were surprisingly few and again nobody stands out . This season, the then u14s should be making a mark at u18s as Schoolboys if they are showing promise, so I guess “ watch this space”.

I saw that, was going to ask who he is

 

[blueloon]

I’m puzzled by Dobbin’s call up as he’s now too old for the England u20s , who now seem to have changed their name.
“ Our newly-titled England Men's Elite League Squad (formerly MU20) begin their campaign against Romania and Portugal this month “ Neither Dobbin nor Okowronkwo were in the original squad announced last week, maybe they’re late call ups .

Dobbin is eligible because its an 02-04 squad. I think it's more likely the site has got this wrong than them actually being late call ups. Neither have even mentioned it on socials and neither have England.

You suggesting Everton site has it got it wrong , I’m shocked ! This was last weeks announcement

Yes the keeper. Lukjanciks

What a name.

All the keepers have banger names though tbf

Lukjanciks is a Latvian name assuming Transfermarkt is accurate.

They probably have got it wrong but it's also possible these lads were not named in the squad but have been involved in training.
