Actually, he had a very good game. He and Malik were the bright spots today. [I suspect it's going to remain that way, by how little service Boyd is getting.]
Named to Championship Team of the Week or maybe the Stoke City starting lineup. Hard to tell. 🌟 @AndyTCarroll has a place in the @WhoScored Championship Team of the week #readingfc pic.twitter.com/5Iw6Vbr7lw— Talk Reading (@TalkReading) April 3, 2023
When is Trusty going to get his own unique name thread title? You can Trusty, Auston at Birmingham City gets my vote.
This TOTW is slightly different, but seems to be from the same source: 📋 The EFL Team of the Week!📈 Based on @WhoScored ratings.#EFL | @CazooUK pic.twitter.com/qSd6y6W9WK— EFL (@EFL) April 3, 2023
Seems there was Leeds interest last year: Leeds United was interested in acquiring Trusty prior to his transfer to Arsenal in January 2022, the 24-year-old said in an interview on current Blues teammate Troy Deeney’s podcast “Deeney Talks”. Trusty was signed by Arsenal in 2022 before spending the next six months on loan with the Colorado Rapids before officially making the move to London last August. https://sbisoccer.com/2023/04/auston-trusty-reveals-leeds-united-interest-prior-to-arsenal-move
Wouldn’t mind seeing Trusty at Leeds next season relegation or not. Either to step into the premier league or move up club wise in the championship.
I mean he's a sixers fan from Delco. It would be a bad miss for me if I did not suggest the obvious. Trusty the Process.

Wow. Birmingham started a 14 year old! (I kid--the fella in the gameday roster picture looks like a ballboy)
Many people say he's going to be as successful as Jude. A few say he could be a bit better. In which case, wow!
Nope. My friends there say his father is a FN nightmare. Making threats to management because he isn‘t played enough, and a public irritant in general. No one I know there thinks he is gonna be anywhere close to Jude. At this age (17) Jude was already bossing the midfield at times against men. Passing, touch and speed of thought were already evident. The two times I saw the kid play he showed that he is simply a kid. Lightweight, trying to keep up. Has skill but not transcendent. A prospect, with a famous brother, who could turn into a decent player or fall off the face of the earth. I have heard way to many, his brother can be better lines in my lifetime when it comes to siblings of older famous players, and they rarely pan out. He ain‘t no Jude, but he could become a good player………………or not. Fans have of course been generally very happy with Austin. They have him pegged as an upper half Chip side regular. Outside of promotion or depth most don‘t see an EPL player.
You know I initially thought Trusty would never get a serious look for Arsenal, and to he clear he would not be a first choice starter, but seeing the drop off from William Saliba to Rob Holding I wonder if Trusty will get a serious look as a backup this summer.
