Ghost of Clough Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 Harsh on Buchanan and Whittaker not to start when they're two of the few players to actually be playing first team football. GK, Hammond - Fulham U23s RB, Lawrence - Chelsea U23s CB, Harwood-Bellis - Man City U23s, 2 games in the League Cup CB, Elese - West Ham U23s, 1 game in the League Cup LB, Thomas - Leicester U23s, 1 game in the League Cup CM, Maghoma - Brentford B CM, Doyle - Man City U23s, 1 game in the League Cup CM, Ramsey - Villa, late sub in a PL game, 3 other games in the cup. RW, Gordon - Everton U23s, 2 games in the League Cup vs Salford and Fleetwood LW, Amaechi - Hamburger B, late sub in the cup for the first team CF, Balogun - Arsenal U23s Others in the squad to actually be playing professional football are John-Jules (Doncaster) and Garner (Watford).

I don't understand the logic With Lee Carsley being the head coach of the U20s he probably doesn't want to be seen favouring his old clubs' players. He'll add them in 1 at a time until we have nearly all the team from Derby County representing England. Ghost of Clough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) The U23 side has picked up two free-agents this week. Goalkeeper George Sykes-Kenworthy and Midfielder Louie Watson. GSK (21) was at Bradford while Watson (19) was at West Ham. Edited October 15, 2020 by SaintRam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalkeeper George to break 21 year old from Bradford City. Been on loan over the past couple of seasons to non-league. Strange that we've got another GK in with Ravas (out on loan) and Idem hovering between first team and U23s, as well as Yates, Foster and Halwax Just now, SaintRam said: and Midfielder Louie Watson. 19 year old attacking mid from West Ham, where he was on the fringes of their U23 squad.

I just didn't bother as they don't usually tend to get much traffic I may ask David when he returns to create a pinned thread in Transfers to track the comings and goings of academy players in one place.

Ghost of Clough Posted October 17, 2020 Author Share Posted October 17, 2020 A very young U18 side. I believe Gordon, Aideyan and Sebagabo are all still 16. RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuniverse Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I’m surprised Eiran Cashin hasn’t featured yet this season - he’s not even been on the bench for the U23s. Does anybody know if he’s injured, or is he just stuck behind Solomon, Wassall and Minkley in the pecking order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
