..I think this is more about aiding a youngsters development. Zat was probably suggesting Lookman would be adequate cover in that position. Not so sure myself.

Hes already playing for the U19s.
Oh you minx.
Apparently had scouts at the Villa game last night for 19-year old Keinan Davis; never seen him play personally.

A bit tongue in cheek I admit and not very conventional. But it was a response in a thread to how we resolve our width ptoblem. Zat suggested trying him as a LWB in the U23s which is a bit left field but not deserving of the abuse he got. Just saying.!

Why can't he play tomorrow? I know it's very unlikely he would get picked anyway.
Wasn't included in the squad list. Think it's different to PL where we have to name everyone and not just sub kids in.
He can be picked, if hes added to the B list.
As for List B, this is exclusively for younger players — 21 or younger on Jan. 1 2018 — with clubs allowed to submit as many names as they like. In addition, players can be added or removed at any stage of the season, as long as it is before 11 pm GMT on the day before any game.

Was being a bit tongue n cheek mate. Zat proposed trying him as a LWB in front of a back 3 as a pitential solution to our lack of width. God knows Baines cant so it anymore. Didnt think trying it in the U23s carried much risk tbh. Who'd have thought Moses could pull it off.
Moses is a pure athlete though whereas Lookman isn't. Didn't surprise me at all he was decent there; same with a player like Antonio.

Well we need to start doing sonething different soon as doing the same thing certainly isnt working. Trying things out in the U23s first isnt the worst idea in the world as there aint any gimmies in the first team fixture list.

Like Antonio by the way. But another whose alleged price tag was a bit silly in the summer.
I was impressed by Lookman's ability to track back at the U20s World Cup, he was clearly instructed to do so , but he put a high amount of energy into it. If you want a defensive wing back then he'd struggle a bit in that department and he'd need some training and discipline, but as an attacking wing back I think he'd be fine . But this kid has got so much natural attacking ability we'd be better concentrating on developing his attacking discipline further, when to pass , when to shoot , not dribble into blind alleys etc .
It's interesting to read about Feeney, normally I wouldn't want him anywhere near a first team match day squad until he'd
developed a bit more physical strength, but if Jags and Keane are out he's next in line as a pure centre half, but Besic is the more likely. Be good to see him on the bench though
