Article in the Athletic about Julian Ward's promotion says that Liam Miller and Sep Van denBerg are expected to both go out on loan in January.

Seem to be a couple of new lads on the way in. Anyone have any details? Read we are aiming to sort before 31/12 due to rule changes post Brexit.

Makes sense, neither are in the first team picture so some real world experience will only be good for them

Blair has impressed me with his desire to run at defenders with the ball, attacking the open spaces between them. It's often  led to him being fouled or having a shot on goal.

Balagizi seems to have another level to his game.
How would you describe Mabaya's game as he's been on the perifery of the team and has started out of position at RB a couple of times due to injuries?

There's a fair few talented players at the u18 level and the last few games has had a number of 16s year olds mixed in as well and the results have remained positive in the whole.

Sorry for the late reply mate.
Mabaya is first and foremost a powerful athlete and very direct. Whereas Balagizi right now is slightly more refined and plays at different speeds, Mabaya loves to run at defenders with power and pace. He’s played in midfield, wide forward and right back so far for the u18s. I’d suspect his long term future is higher up the pitch.

So what has happened to Liam Coyle?  Promoted early to the U23s and just about permanently injured since?  Now 21, having signed a new contract in the summer, and still not playing.

Some random news.  A couple of lads I play senior football with are now salaried employees of Liverpool to identify and recruit young talent.  The more interesting part is that they live and run a kids' soccer school in south Derbyshire so not exactly nearby.

From how they described it this is a new focus from the club and they're two of many new recruits.  It sounds like a response to the ban on signing under 18s from the EU and an expectation that getting hold of the best English kids is going to be even more competitive.

Rhys probably wins that one. Layton Steward is for me the most exciting attacking player at the academy. Hopefully he at least makes the bench tonight.

Interesting that 16 year old Alphie Devine who scored on his debut for Spurs first team vs Marine this evening becomes their youngest ever player to make his debut for them. Also their youngest goalscorer but was released by Liverpool at 11.

Take him back in a few years hopefully if he turns out to be any good, much to the dismay of Mourinho (if he's still there)

It’s like watching the first team at the moment - playing all the football, but very wasteful, and no luck either. Everton team is huge by comparison and given Unsy is coaching them, not in the tradition of school of science.

It wouldn't be Everton if they weren't a side of up-and-at-em grocks.

Well you can add to my former post a thuggish straight red for an Everton player, and some very odd refereeing.

Got injured early in the season after just coming back from his last injury.  Same game I think that Joe Hardy got injured also after just coming back from a previous injury.

I am surprised there aren't any CB in youth teams who have a bit of pace (like VVD and Gomez) about them?.

Sepp Van der Berg has a very good recovery pace, but for some reason, he has completely disappeared from the picture. It's a shame, since he looked pretty talented ...

Didnt know that. He looked a bit lost in the few times ive seen him in action (like those of us who mainly watch the first team).maybe he is a bit more raw than the club thought when they brought him in?. FWIW he also looks more like a Philips type player...

Well, he is certainly faster and better with the ball than Phillips. I haven't watched the game, but the reports suggest he did really well against Everton for the U-23's the other night. I suppose that he will go out on loan, but I wouldn't mind him getting a chance with the 1st team, if we are not signing a central defender this month.

I had high hopes for him but every time he's been given a chance in the first team he hasn't impressed at all.  Been poor to average (at best).  There's a player in there somewhere and he might need a loan move to really develop, but at the moment I can see why he's not getting chances.
