The schedule can be found at https://www.uefa.com/under17/ . I also use livesoccertv.com a lot because they are generally up-to-date and sync it to my timezone. Hope that helps
Just to confirm: The Squad Goalkeepers: Nathan Broome (Stoke City)*, Louie Moulden (Manchester City), James Trafford (Manchester City) Defenders: Matthew Bondswell (RB Leipzig), Taylor Harwood-Bellis (Manchester City), Malachi Fagan-Walcott (Tottenham Hotspur), Teden Mengi (Manchester United), Haydon Roberts (Brighton & Hove Albion), Samson Robinson (Manchester City) Midfielders: Miguel Azeez (Arsenal), Lewis Bate (Chelsea), Teddy Jenks (Brighton & Hove Albion), Nonso Madueke (PSV Eindhoven), Yunus Musah (Arsenal), Cole Palmer (Manchester City), Jensen Weir (Wigan Athletic), Jeremy Sarmiento (Benfica) Forwards: Joseph Gelhardt (Wigan Athletic), Sam Greenwood (Arsenal), Benjamin Knight (Manchester City), Morgan Rogers (West Bromwich Albion)
I think Malachi Walcott is the only name that wasn’t mentioned in the previously expected Squad? Livramento is not in the Squad though?
And Robinson. Can't touch Livramento. So from qualifying. Robinson for Livramento (got to assume injury) Walcott for Wood-Gordon (First team) Jenks for Peart-Harris Sarmiento for Mighten (injury) Palmer for Elliott (First team)
Pity about Livramento. It's the position with most depth for the senior team but he seemed to be the stand out option for this year group. Disappointed but not surprised Pulis blocked Wood-Gordon from going to maybe sit on the bench for one game... Uefa have the squad numbers by the way. 1 Moulden, 2 Walcott, 3 Roberts, 4 Azeez, 5 Harwood-Bellis, 6 Mengi, 7 Madueke, 8 Weir, 9 Greenwood, 10 Musah, 11 Rogers.
Im not liking this missing out so the player can sit on the bench nonsense. I think training with the first team is huge but a tournament like this can be transformative to thier careers. The u17, u19 and u20 lads have spoken quite clearly about how the wins put them on the map and changed thier lives.
Yep, a waste of time in reality - these players likely won't get a minute of a league football. We've seen it so many times before.
Yep, still remember the Reece Oxford withdrawal a few years ago because West Ham really needed him for First team duties. I’m guessing they meant washing the senior players boots as he didn’t see one minute of action whilst missing out on playing for a World Cup for your Country. Complete miss management of the player.
Moulden - Musah, THB, Mengi, Roberts - Azeez, Weir - Madueke, Knight, Greenwood, Rogers. That's the team i'm expecting.
I know Greenwood is our star player and perhaps the best U18 player in Europe. I've heard good things about Bate, Mushah, and Gelhardt, while Madueke showed brilliance against Denmark to send us to the finals. Pretty confident on paper this is a better squad than last year while I'm aware 2017 was a very special group that is pretty much now the top standard to reach. I don't follow the youngsters as much as I used to so I'm a bit late as far as who to look out for on a grand scale. Any other information on some stand outs would be great!
Pulis has previous form for pulling players out these tournaments so no surprises there. He's a peculiar man, loath to use youth players, loath to let them be used. There's abolutely zero chance Wood-Gordon will play a single second or even make the squad in their final game or play offs. Elliott will probably get a few minutes off the bench you'd think in perhaps the last game, although I doubt he'll meaningful minutes seeing as Parker is very much in the running for the Fulham job. It's a shame we're being weakened by clubs even at under 17 level. We had the same issue last year with Greenwood and Jones. Fair enough if they're genuine first team options like Ryan Sessegnon the other year, but most the time these players are prevented from going they never do anything anyway. Mason Greenwood has still done almost nothing in an England shirt.
Sam Greenwood is actually a special player in his own right. Great striker of a ball and worth keeping an eye on. Harvey Elliott is my pick of the group but he’s with Fulham. Is Cirkin injured?
I might be wrong but I fear a lack of creativity in the final third. What happened to Ben Elliot ? Haven't read anything about him lately.
Injuries. Broke his ankle last season, had a knee problem this year, only back in training a few weeks ago.
Enjoyable morning read. An interview with noni. I hope he plays am for us and not on the wing. PSV have been putting him out there and its not his best position https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...lowed-Jadon-Sancho-example-moving-abroad.html
Other game in our group is going on right now between Sweden and The Netherlands. 7 Ajax players starting + ex-Ajax Ki-Jana Hoever. England eligible Anthony Elanga starts for Sweden.
England XI vs France: Moulden; Robinson, Harwood-Bellis (c), Walcott, Roberts; Azeez, Weir; Palmer, Madueke, Rogers, Greenwood Interesting that the two new boys in Palmer and Robinson are thrown straight in. Also, Musah and Sarmiento don't even make the bench. Registration issues again?
