He played for the u23s last time and I heard he's been training with them too.Finally some U18s! Is Gomes with the u18 or u23 now days?

Yeah, he is most likely done with the U18s. I think it was Kieran McKenna who said that Angel would play for the U18s untill christmas, and then would be pushed up to the U23s for good.He played for the u23s last time and I heard he's been training with them too.
Still suspended.Where is that Traore fella?
Thanks.. That explains it..Still suspended.
Do we have big hopes for any out of this bunch?Tweet

Greenwood, Chong, Puigmal, Galbraith, O'Connor and Baars, plus Traore who isn't playing. Talented bunch.Do we have big hopes for any out of this bunch?
Chong looks different class.Chong has looked good - going forward we look ok. Defensively we have been awful
Who's the biggest prospect in your opinion?Greenwood, Chong, Puigmal, Galbraith, O'Connor and Baars, plus Traore who isn't playing. Talented bunch.
I like O'Connor, he looks class.Who's the biggest prospect in your opinion?
He got a serious injury last season. I think he'd have already been in U21 if not for that.How old is Chong? Looks physically ahead of the rest, as well as technically.
Must be close to the U23s?
Ramazani has been great since he came on.The through ball was fantastic. Great first touch and finishing by Chong too.
Think Ethan Laird could be the best of the lot of them.Lovely goal by Chong and through ball by Ramazani. Chong is too good for this level.
Like the look of Laird and Puigmal too.
He turned 18 in December.How old is Chong? Looks physically ahead of the rest, as well as technically.

Agreed - very versatile and matureI like O'Connor, he looks class.
Can't wait for his debut. Hope he stays injury free.He turned 18 in December.
Cheers, must have been the injury then. Does look like he needs stepping up.He turned 18 in December.
Couple of great tackles he's just made.Think Ethan Laird could be the best of the lot of them.
Yeah he’s just a proper footballer, can see him becoming a top-class right back.Agreed - very versatile and mature
I really rate O'Connor too. I don't understand why he is playing so much football at centre back though. Unless he has a McTominay like growth spurt he has zero chance of having a top class career in that position.Yeah he’s just a proper footballer, can see him becoming a top-class right back.
Where was Aidan Barlow?
Really? He ain't super tall and I also think he's best at RB, but he's hardly short and he's still a good defender. There've been plenty of good centre halves over the years who weren't the tallest. Aggression and ability are just as important. For example, I was always a huge fan of Ayala and he was only 5'10 (first thing in the morning!). Think Baresi and Cannavaro were even shorter.I really rate O'Connor too. I don't understand why he is playing so much football at centre back though.

As a right back he has great potential yet hardly ever plays there. Hopefully he will move up to the u23s and get a run of games there.
Ayala, Baresi and Cannavaro (Mascherano too) were outliers. They were exceptional defensive talents. Importantly, how many examples have there been in England? Jose couldn't get Blind out of centre back fast enough and Gary Neville was always seen as a centre back but in the end wasn't tall enough.Really?
