Expect them to climb the rankings a bit at the end of the year though. With Scanlon assisting the attack Gibraltar should expect some big wins against Liechtenstein and San Marino in the Nations League - they have decent strikers in Tjay De Barr...

Hopefully a decent run in the UEFA Youth League next season now they have a bit more experience.

Actually he's Gambian

That's something that the first team lack at the moment. Even on an off day, you can generally rely on at least one player to step up and make the difference for the U18s (yesterday was Scanlon) in 90% of games this season. The first team don't...

Some more info: Position: attacking midfielder (can play out wide) Joined United: 2021, from Derby County U18 apps/goals 23/24: 11 apps, 8 goals U21 apps/goals 23/24: 5 apps, 0 goals International career: Gibraltar U17: 4 caps, 3 goals (2022)...

Been ridiculous since the international break, feels like he's found another level.

Scanlon will get a massive boost to the physical side by playing for Gibraltar in a much more physical environment. His positioning and movement is pretty good, and I have him down to be a top half Championship player at minimum.

Don't U18 PL winners qualify through the Domestic Champions Path? Italy had 5 Youth League teams because Lecce qualified that way this year.

I'd say there's a good chance the majority will be at least Championship level players in a few years, with several going off to the top flights of Europe, some staying in the Prem at other clubs, and a couple who'll break through at United.

Didn't know Jones was part of the U18 coaching setup now. He's always been said to have a good football brain even though his body very much let him down in the latter years of his career, so he could probably go far as a coach.

They have a couple of very decent players around the first team like Jones and Bradley but they're in their 20s now - they were the stars of an older youth team, and the standard appears to have dropped since. Whereas United are seemingly...

I think Scanlon benefitted a bit from his senior international experience last week. Taste of what senior football is like and how physical it can get (Lithuania kicked lumps out of Gibraltar's players in both legs) probably gave him some idea of...

I wonder if the international break has given Scanlon a boost in confidence. Now he's got a few headlines and generated a bit of hype, first game back and he scores twice with two pretty good goals.

6-1 now, bloodbath. Wheatley hat-trick, brace from Scanlon.
