Youth / Reserve Team Thread... 2010 - 2013

He has played very well all game tbf, superb shot just a few minutes ago from him.

Jones hits the bar
 
That big lad Jones could have had a treble. Got on the end of virtually every corner we put in to their box. Sinclair is the closest thing to copper-fastened certainty of making the step up. Lots of good performances there today. I like Baio (despite contriving to tackle himself at one point), Lussey is a nice footballer too. Trickett-Smith is a really intelligent looking player who is a perfect foil for Sinclair at that level, regularly spotting his movement and delivering the right ball.
 
Wilson, Ibe, Lussey and Sinclair I have high hopes for, but the talent at the Acadamy is fantastic these days.
The future looks bright.

Did Dunn play? How did he do? When I first saw him, I thought that he was like the closest thing to Gerrard in the Academy / Reserve ranks. Is he improving or has he stagnated or been injured? As you didn't mention him, I was wondering whether his prospects/form have taken a dip.

He's had a few injuries in succession unfortunately. Hamstrings last time I think. He still looks like a brilliant prospect though.
 
I've just seen the lineup... it's not exactly the most exciting side in the world. Of the 11, Gulacsi, Sokolik, Wilson, Roddan, Ngoo, Adorjan and Pacheco all have more or less negligible chances of making it to the first team, and you wouldn't exactly call Sama, Coady, or Morgan the most scintillating of young talents either, even if they are a cut above the others.

Can't help but think some of the lads from the 18s (particularly Lussey and Baio) and Ibe should be starting, and some of these older, less promising, players loaned out.

Adorjan has a chance. He's excellent on the ball and can pick a pass, the others are bit meh!
 
Ngoo has this amazing skill whereby he slows down play as soon as he gets the ball, in fact time and space seem to come to a standstill when the ball is with him.
