England U-19 Discussion Thread #3 (2005 born) [R]

Played mostly left back in that time as well

 

So, he's decided he's not German then.

 

Think he really needed a loan move, just hope he see plenty of playing time.

Good luck at @bcfctweets, Jonathan!#WBAhttps://t.co/ObHlIXSowZ

To go with Nikola Vlasic, @Everton soon to complete deal for Dennis Adeniran from Fulham (England youth). Passed medical, agreed terms.

Are Everton preparing for Brexit or something? They really are targeting a lot of young English players.

 

I think they just have a smart youth recruitment staff who know what they're doing.

 

Also don't think Everton are expecting too many of their 18s to graduate to u23s and beyond. They just had a special local generation 2-4 years ago ie Kenny, Connolly, Williams, Davies, Walsh, Dowell

Bought Galloway, Garbutt, Stones, Holgate, Lookman, Calvert-Lewin with varied success & more recently Gibson, Adeniran, Coventry &QPR lads.

Official.

Sambou and Bowler? There's Foulds from Bury too.

 

I wonder if England games will be the only football Hirst gets this season?

 

He scored a hat-trick, so did Nketiah, Embleton got a goal and they won 7-1.

 

Niall Ennis will be sidelined for four to six months after picking up a serious knee injury.
Shame.

Did you mean to post the Germany line-up? Here's the England team:

Ended up 3-1 to Germany, from the little I heard from that sport radio station that broadcast it, I got the impression it was deserved for Germany from what the commentators suggested

 

This age group is a little bit weak defensively. Obviously Chalobah is a big loss but it feels like there's a bit of a random bunch in the squad with especially a lack of pure centre halves. I'm also less than convinced by Tymon so far.

Wouldn't shock me for an U18 to end up in there by next summer. Feels like it's an age group that'll be relying on some late developers. Maybe Tanganga is one who will mature quickly.

 

Was going to say Tanganga is very good. Don't know a Spurs youth watcher that doesn't rate him, often he is one of, if not, the most impressive or eye catching player on the field for us. I'd have him as one of the main CBs

 

Agree with that, always come away very impressed when watching him.

Nelson should have scored from seven yards out against Man U u21s tonight after just 20 seconds. But struck the near post. He is putting the goals away regularly this season, particularly. Wenger will be looking to give him game time soon.

 

Better cameras on Nelson's free-kick here. No comment on the angle/view.

 

I was thinking Nelson would be getting his first team chance tonight. Hopefully so - will make it more interesting.

 

I expect him to come on for Sanchez

 

Well he's on the bench, so he might.

Not relevant to this thread, but so are Wilshere and, surprisingly, Akpom. Maitland-Niles starts.
