I am not sure if it is a weird competition but it certainly isn't the norm for teams that come over to participate in it. The value for the Super Group teams is that they get to play against teams from all over the world which makes them have to cope with different styles of football.
Your squad this year was not nearly as talented as the one you brought to last years tournament. You didn't have anyone at the level of Ledson, Davies and some others. However, your lot didn't waiver from how they wanted to play and put out some great team performances.
It is hard not to be impressed with Brewster, but his game is all about pace, strength and service. I'm not completely convinced he will make it at the highest level but he is miles ahead of those in this age group.
For me, your #5, Alex Denny, has the biggest upside of anyone on the squad you brought here. He has size, pace and sees the game well beyond his 15 years. However, he has bunches of competition within the club in the middle of the park. Could see him becoming a great center half down the road if he doesn't make it as a midfielder.
Your boys have done Everton proud and were no doubt the class of the tournament. It is not easy to play that many games in such a short period of time - but no doubt the best team is taking home the trophy.
Well done - I know all of the local folks enjoyed seeing this side play and hope to have Everton back in the years to come.
