Highlights of the U18 5-0 win over Crewe now on the web sight for those interested in catching glimpses of the new first year U18s cohort
Made for some fun viewing that! Stewart just too good for this level, but great to get a glimpse at some of those who will be major players for the new look 18s.
Balagizi is really looking like he could be a Yaya Touré type midfielder, what a unit he is. Very skilled and always plays with his head up as well. We’ve played him in a number of different roles, from out wide to #6 and everywhere in between, but he definitely looks like he could be an incredible 8 if he stays fit and continues to develop at this rate.
Harvey Blair will be one to watch this year. We oddly enough have very few wide forward types in our academy setup, even though they are obviously a major feature in our first team. He looks like he’s got the pace and skill set to play that role though, has grown as well.
The new boy Musialowski could have bagged a hat trick in his second half cameo. The way he rolled those two massive Crewe defenders for his goal was wild. Looks like we could have a good one on our hands.
