    This seems to be a running theme when it comes to selections in our youth set up, seem to prioritise equal playing time amongst the squad rather than focus on always starting the best eleven even when it’s a must win game, sorry should say must win in the context of the game but it’s only youth football so results aren’t the sole focus.

    I thought Watson was the player that really caught the eye for England. Has a kind of authority. Hit a number of quarter back passes to feet on the right wing. Portugal played their usual contain and counter style and we struggled to really unlock their defence. We didn't get down the sides and cross enough. The pitch didn't help the game situation for us either.

    Curtis joined United not too long ago. I wouldn't be suprised if he became the 18s coach after Adam Lawrence's departure.

    I notice that CR7jr is getting some heat for his performances in this tournament. I have to agree that he doesn't really look up to the level.

    What are your thoughts on his overall showing at the tournament?

    Regardless of whether he's at the level or not, it's very weird that a couple of big accounts were calling him out at 14 and sharing comps of him struggling.

    I'm wondering if that might be the main reason why Kai Rooney and Jacey Carrick haven't been selected so far, trying to protect them from all that internet negativity/hate culture for now?

    Yeah, what a time to be alive with all this hate going around especially targeted at young kids just disgusts me to be honest. You can’t protect them forever from the cesspits but hopefully they are protected to an age they can best deal with it.

    Saw one from RisingStarXI saying coaches clearly never watched him before his call up and it was shameful he was included

    Quite surprised it came from this account as usually pretty good in this regard from what I’ve seen but here it is:

    JJ Gabriel has been tipped by Manchester United insiders to become their youngest ever player. (The Sun)

    Some of these accounts on X are pretty terrible, I noticed that particular one didn't post anything after he scored 2 in the final.

    To be fair he did unless you’re thinking of another account:

    Yeah he hasn’t revisited what he said from what I’ve seen, he probably needs to eat a good piece of humble pie……
