    Its very impressive that hes at the top of the scoring list but keep in mind this league is only for the north of Germany. You notice there is no Schalke, Dortmund, Leverkusen, Munich, or BMG

    Why is it a big deal? They're both incredible talents. Theyre both going to play on the same team in the future. No need for petty arguments

    I'm not suggesting an argument. I'm suggesting that it'd be ironic if a guy who has been balling for the senior NT doesn't get his debut in the same league as Soto, who no one is considering at all for the NT. I agree they're both great players.

    Pretty amazing that we appear to have two of the best youth prospects in Germany and one in Spain. Is that an exaggeration? Who cares, I'm buzzed.

    So are we allowed to tear down Bobby Wood to make reason for Soto to play with the first team?

    If the 96-squad due to injuries - as it is currently the case - or even international travel decimated, it is not uncommon that during training with junior players "refilled" is. So also on this Tuesday morning, when our U19 players Sebastian Soto and Julian Klar with "Waldi" and Co. let the ball roll - for the two 18-year-olds the premiere of our professionals.

    The two run since this summer in the jersey of our red on, Soto goes in the storm on goal hunting, Klar is variable defensive man. And now both got the chance to sniff "profile air" once.

    "Motivation for young boys"
    "Above all else, it's just a form of motivation for young guys to be at the top, to know where they can go", explains Breitenreiter about the unit. And adds: "That certainly helps to give them even more motivation and to become even more diligent, which is also the philosophy we drive." And precisely because of this philosophy, the two were of course no strangers to Breitenreiter and his coaching team, who are always busy with our junior teams and look closely everywhere. But nevertheless, it is "of course something else, if you have them sometimes in training," says the 96-head coach.

    "We live this way"
    Overall, summarizes Breitenreiter again: "There are just young talents that we lead, we live this way athletic and implement the same way - and then be happy if it is one or the other young players then also manages to actually play on top and even score goals and get noticed. " This is how Linton Maina has done well: The 19-year-old has been training with our pros since January, made his debut in the Bundesliga in March and came to regular stakes this season until his injury. Soto and Klar are still a long way from that, but maybe they will go the same way!

    Was that kid from their U23s that’s scoring a lot there?

    I'm not seeing anything indicating he was there. Searched his name around the internet and came up empty apart from commentary about a Hannover II game he played last week.

    Hope Hannover continues their poor performance offensively. It would be nice to see Wood get back into form, but we know his finishing is sub par for the Bundesliga and likely won’t become the striker star we hoped for 3 years ago.

    It’s been done over and over again on Sargent’s thread, anyone have an idea where Soto stands on the depth chart to the first team?

    At this point, I believe Soto and Sargent have an equal chance of starting for Bremen this calendar year. :(

    19 year old right winger Linton Maina just scored his first Bundesliga goal for Hannover. That's a good sign as it shows they really do trust their academy. Maina scored 11 goals and had 6 assists in 47 matches for Hannover's u19 team. All in all, things looks very good for Soto to eventually get his chance, potentially before the season is over.

    Between the classes of '95 to '99, there have been 9 academy players for Hannover make league appearences. He's in a good spot if he keeps up his form.

    "The U19 players are not going to be an issue for this weekend, they all did a really good job - it was really a very fresh performance by all four guys and I wish it was Another motivation is to continue to work and to be diligent, so that they can move here in the future in the cabin, "our head coach said. "They also have the quality and the bite to become a professional.

    He was in the RSL academy, correct? Did RSL ever give him a contract offer? What type of offer was it? Anyone have any idea about how it likely compared to the Hannover contract?
