Everton Youth Teams Thread

[TonyT65]

Well we could field a 2 -11 team of current, I.e this season, England internationals in 16-21 age range, which is not bad:
Kenny, Galloway, Holgate, Connolly; Davies, Alex Denny; Lookman , Dowell, Evans; Calvert-Lewin. Spot the missing current non-England player who we all rate.

And its even more surprising considering how well he did at Yeovil

It says on the OS that Osman is watching the game alongside Unsworth and Ebbrell - I wonder if he is planning to join the youth coaching staff?

Hibbert and osman were there,and supposedly if right,left just before the 90 mins ended [and not to get a drink]

9 mins left before pens

Everton and the youth cup. Is like the 1st team v Liverpool. Never ends well.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

I would expect them to be able to beat rubbish like Preston. I guess the whole point though is to find and develop 1st teamers like Davies.

Yep, and this time last year ish they got beaten 1-0 at home to Aston Villa. ... Davies, Connolly and Dowell played that night and subsequently made their PL debuts months later so who knows. Disappointing though however you look at it, they've beaten far better teams than Preston this season.

Bloody hell we are plop at penalty shoot outs aren't we

Bloody hell we are plop at penalty shoot outs aren't we

why the negativity?

We rock at losing to teams we should easily beat at all levels

 

[boris]

I went to watch that last night.

We were bad, if any of them are playing premiership football this time next year it will be a miracle.

...that is a huge disappointment. I'm a big believer that this competition is a benchmark to the quality we have in any particular year.

 

[marchy]

I dunno, we've performed poorly the last few years but our record of bringing players through to the first team or of them having proffessional careers at a lower level is very good.

...increasingly the players who are making an impact on the first team are youngsters we are bringing in. More specifically, Stones, Holgate, Calvert-Lewin and Galloway. Davies obviously is an exception but as @blueloon says, he played in last years defeat to Aston Villa.

Despite the cup exit there's a few U18's that I'm very confident will make it with us. The U18 squad is undoubtedly not as strong as the age above.
