England U-17 Discussions Thread #3 (2007 born)

Lars Ricken said nothing of the kind. He defended him if anything. Have to be more careful with such

 

I don’t get on with the geezer at all, but he’s allowed to speculate. It’s not a courtroom.

 

What are you on about?

 

What are you on about ‘Have to be more careful with such...’

Are you the player’s Dad or something?

Nobody really knows what’s going on, so we’re allowed to speculate.

 

Yeah, that was just my mistake.

It was Timo Preus, not Lars Ricken.

 

Lol speak for yourself. It was nothing a quick google search couldn’t hep with, to help you or others know what was going on. You can go ahead and speculate on that, if you want

 

Fair enough. I suppose it's a bit easy to misread someone's tone online. Apologies.

 

Livramento also in from Chelsea, so that's three (Simeu and Bate confirmed).

 

Looks like it is a case of

Talley for Moulden
Simeu for Mengi
Walcott for Harwood-Bellis
Bate for Hodge
Madueke for Weir

Just need to confirm Haydon Roberts, Armstrong Okoflex & Joe Gelhardt's inclusion or replacement.

 

Hodge has been starting for City u18's 1 year early, looks good, can break up the play well but also can drive forward with the ball and has good eye for a pass.

 

Jensen Weir is with them.

 

Looks like bigger squads with Germany (22) & Eire (21)

 

Hopefully for us too.

Weir at right-back rather ? Saw him in the #2 shirt in training.

 

Just out of interest, how many of the Irish team are English by birth? Just thinking about the English based players and apart from Hodge, any good prospects?

 

Just had a quick look and it only seems like Hodge & Everitt.

Sobowale, Ebosele & Carty all born in Eire.

 

2-1 up

Went 2-0 up through Elliott and Mighten

Cirkin seen 2 yellow cards and is off.

 

Looks feisty

Noticed in the comments some are going on about us poaching a player?

 

Cirkin was born in Ireland.

I can't find any match highlights but Elliott got a goal and assist.
