GrahamC Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 Young midfielder not 18 until next month, come on as sub for the 23s a couple of times of late. Anyone seen him play? Can give me an idea of his strengths? Type of player he is? Cheers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted September 16, 2023 Report Share Posted September 16, 2023 I don't think any of us are seeing much of these kids lately, it makes me wonder if it's a deliberate attempt to take them away from outside pressures. Because we seem to be happy to blood the youngsters maybe the club are worried that the fans start clamouring for the next kid based on a few highlights. As Yeboah has shown, it takes more than what you do on the pitch to get you involved at the top table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nige used the word "terrorise" in terms of what he'd do to a left back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted September 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2023 Pretty sure that Lloyd Kelly, Bobby Reid, Jojo Wollacott & Owura Edwards all went to City Academy in Lawrence Hill, Ephraim Yeboah did too. What I don’t know is how many of the first 4 were ever in the same squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
