Everton Youth Teams Thread

Wouldn't say it was that young really, it's first and second year scholars, there's 14 first years so the average age of the U18s will lean more towards the 16 year olds than the 17/18 year olds

I like Jones, should be a centre mid really but is often played on the wing.

What about the Duffus Bros. they came at the same time as someone else didnt they.

Courtney is a 2nd year, Tyrone is a 1st year

u18s beat them 2-1 (Ryan Ledson, Joe Williams)
u16s beat them 8-0

Russell Griffiths, Gethin Jones, Curtis Langton (C), James Graham, Jordan Thorniley
Joe Williams, Harry Charsley, Ryan Ledson, Oliver Shannon
Courtney Duffus, Calum Dyson

Liverpool up next at Kirkby!

How good do you think this Ryan Ledson could be, I keep hearing good things about him. 1st teamer?

Possibly in the future, a lot of youth followers from other clubs like the look of him and he seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Does a bit of everything but above all else he's very composed and aware on the pitch and can play with both feet like our Boss Rarkley

We'll see how he plays under pressure in the mini-derby next weekend, he's played in England games before but they're hardly passionate affairs. Should be a cracker!

West Ham missed penalty.

Half-time: It's still 0-0 at the break, although the Hammers really should be in the lead having been given that chance from 12 yards two minutes before the interval. Everton started well, but the Hammers gradually became the better team and a 1-0 lead would have been just about fair. However, Moncur wasn't quite on target with his spot kick, firing it against the bar and an interesting second period awaits. Join us again in 15 minutes for the rest of the action.

43 mins The Hammers have a penalty as referee Anthony Tankard points to the spot after Pennington raised a hand to block Lletget's header back across goal following a Driver cross. It was a clear handball, but the Hammers cannot take advantage as Moncur smashes the spot kick against the bar with keeper Taudel diving the other way.

Says something when 16 year old Kenny is getting in ahead of 18 year old McLaughlin

Duffus' second game in 3 days

Latest score: Everton U21s 1-1 West Ham U21s

74 mins Goal! The lead is a shortlived one however, as Everton's Luke Garbutt takes aim from range and rockets a shot into the top right hand corner of the Hammers net. 1-1.

73 mins That Everton crossbar has seen plenty of action and it denies the Hammers for a third time as Elliot Lee arcs a right footed effort from 20 yards over Yaudul's dive but also against the top of the bar.

68 mins GOAL! There it is. West Ham finally have the goal they crave, albeit one in unconventional circumstances. Callum Driver picked up the ball on the right wing and fired the ball over towards the box. Whether he meant it as a cross or a shot only he will know, but either way it doesn't matter as the ball sails over keeper Taudel and ends up in the net. 1-0 Hammers!

GOAL. #EFCU21 1-2 West Ham. The impressive Lletget gets on the end of a probing move to finish low past Taudul with minutes to go.

Latest score: Everton U21s 1-2 West Ham U21

90 mins Three minutes of stoppage time to be played.

89 mins GOAL! Surely that settles it. Taudul's weak goal kick falls invitingly for Lletget inside the Everton half and he runs strongly at the heart of the Everton defence before poking out to Turgott on the right. He passes it straight back to Lletget, who sweeps the ball beyond Taudul and into the bottom right hand corner from 15 yards. West Ham lead again and it's 2-1.

Have to say the technical abilities of both sets of players has been woeful that first half.
