Anyone know how he's been doing? Is the promotion due to ability/impressing or maybe injuries at U23 level?
Maybe he impressed in training against the u-23 lads?Anyone know how he's been doing? Is the promotion due to ability/impressing or maybe injuries at U23 level?

Alan Hansen would have a field day with that defending. Is it true he has been injured as I was hoping to see him in the U19 Euros, was he missign though injury or just didnt make the squad as he is highly rated isnt he? Seen nothing of him bar youtubeTweet

Its a training session making it not even that impressive of a goal. He runs about 50 yards unopposed and then some clearly half assed attempts at tackles. He'd have been hit hard 30 yards earlier in a proper game.Alan Hansen would have a field day with that defending.

Cheers, well were some good players in and omitted from that sideIts a training session making it not even that impressive of a goal. He runs about 50 yards unopposed and then some clearly half assed attempts at tackles. He'd have been hit hard 30 yards earlier in a proper game.
He was injured for most of last season. As for the u19s, he is 2 years younger than most of them and half of them have Ligue 1 experience. He isn't even close to being in the conversation for making that team.
He's been one of our best players IMO. Had some absolutely brilliant performances. My biggest criticism of him though is that he can start some games slowly, where he's fairly quiet in the first half but then becomes unstoppable in the second.
Tidy performance, this.
How has he done so far this season?
He's added a lot of end product to his game this season with 4 goals & 7 assists in 15 starts 7 & 2 sub appearances
Tidy performance, this. His set up for Greenwoods goal was perfect.

Maybe more like Dembele. He has the feet of Pogba and his role is similar, but Pogba was a great passer, great creator, and had a rocket of a shot at that level. I mean, that's not really a criticism as almost any midfielder loses out on that comparison. I quite like Traore for what he is.He is a interesting player. Can't quite figure out what's his best role in midfield though. Bit like Pogba.
I am not sure. There are many players who impress me more than Traore. A good player of course, but he has not shown enough to convince me that he could go all the way.He will develop into a very interesting player
12 mins as a sub against Derby in Feb, match finished 1-1, though he did feature in the U23s pre-season friendly games (Northampton, Stoke, SV Ried). It is possible he may be involved in the 2nd half of this season; that is if Hamilton goes out on loan.He's huge for a lad of his age and thats got to be taken into consideration, has he played for the u23's yet? Would be interested to see how he does there before talking him up too much.

Looks so much like Pogba in everything he does on that.Tweet

Some of his season highlights so far. He's been one of the standouts for the u18s this season, looks a good player in the making. I think he has a lot of promise, if he keeps this sort of form in the u23s I'd wager we'll be seeing a lot more of him in and around the first team next season.
I think so too.He's massively overrated.
It’s a shame really, I think he has a lot of ability he just doesn’t know what the feck to do with it. He used to frustrate me because he took too long to get involved in the match, now he just seems to hide from his responsibility on the pitch.He's massively overrated.
