Hoping Bernard is only a loan though if Benoît Badiashile comes in it may be better for him to move on.Tweet

He was outstanding pre U18 in the same team as Greenwood but has been regularly injured over the last few years and not progressed as most would have hoped. He's now a U19 so the 23s will be his natural age group now anyway. Hopefully he can make up for lost time and fulfil at least some of his early potential.Is Max Haygarth the player who was highly rated on here? Quite a young u23s which will be exciting to see how they develop.
Thanks for the insight, I thought I recognised his name being dropped in here a few years back. Shame about the injuries, hopefully he kicks on this season.He was outstanding pre U18 in the same team as Greenwood but has been regularly injured over the last few years and not progressed as most would have hoped.

They are. Devine was excellent last season, replacing Williams in the U23. Showed good mentality and was good against men in the EFL Cup as well. Fish is an England youth international, and also played a few U23 games despite his young age and was very good. He mostly played U18 football though. Very good in the air and good with the ball. Devine will definitely be a key player in our U23, and I expect that Fish will play a lot there too.Thanks for the insight, I thought I recognised his name being dropped in here a few years back.

Weren't Reece Devine and Will Fish highly rated also?
Thanks again for the insight, I've not kept up with u18s and u23s the past season, think I'll keep an eye on both teams this season to see how they all develop. We have some very exciting prospects coming through, hopefully some get game time in the League Cup early rounds this upcoming season.They are.

Yeah, the young guns have a greater chance than ever of getting some game time in the League Cup. However, the ones who are most ready will probably be out on loan. Players like Garner, Levitt, Kovar etc. Laird and Mengi aside, most of the lads in our youth setup are probably still a year from knocking on the door. I think Elanga and Devine could get some game time in the League Cup, but other than that I don't know. Maybe Galbraith if he's still here and not on loan.Thanks again for the insight, I've not kept up with u18s and u23s the past season, think I'll keep an eye on both teams this season to see how they all develop.

He is better going forward - but Williams is much more physical and has better leadership abilities.Devine is a better left back than Williams. He is very good and naturally left footed
I remember reading their fans' posts in twitter saying that they need to sign players or otherwise the game will be cancelled.The 23s friendly against Macclesfield Town due to be played a week today has been cancelled, no reason given.
I see Williams moving to the right eventually as an alternative to AWB who might even end up as a right sided CB in a CB 2 or CB 3.Devine is a better left back than Williams. He is very good and naturally left footed
Yeah I thought it would be that the second I hit 'send'I remember reading their fans' posts in twitter saying that they need to sign players or otherwise the game will be cancelled.
Yeah I thought he was a natural LB.Devine is a better left back than Williams. He is very good and naturally left footed
Yeah I agree, outside chance of Mejbri also. Exciting season for the youth groups upcoming, hopefully it's a good one for them all.Yeah, the young guns have a greater chance than ever of getting some game time in the League Cup.

Galbraith.So, who scored in 1-1 draw against Morecambe?
The tall lad from Sunderland?Galbraith.
It's interesting to me who is gonna play number 9 in U-23? Of all the players taking participation in these friendlies there is not a single striker.
Elanga at first I think. Then probably Hoogewerf eventually. Sadly, because Elanga should play on the left.Galbraith.

He's 16. He will play in U-18s. At least for some time.The tall lad from Sunderland?
Yeah, seems like so.Elanga at first I think. Then probably Hoogewerf eventually. Sadly, because Elanga should play on the left.
Haha yeah that's a good point I guess.He's 16. He will play in U-18s. At least for some time.
Yeah, seems like so.
Probably Haygarth.Galbraith.

Maybe a batter career move? From what I've heard, he's very ambitious.Saw that earlier, strange if true, can't be about money, maybe he just fancies living in London.
I could understand if he was going as a no.2 but it looks as though Eddie Niedzwiecki will get that gig, maybe Quinton will help John O'Shea putting out the cones!Maybe a batter career move? From what I've heard, he's very ambitious.
Maybe he's very ambitious with cones?I could understand if he was going as a no.2 but it looks as though Eddie Niedzwiecki will get that gig, maybe Quinton will help John O'Shea putting out the cones!
Maybe, I wish the lad well if he goes anyway. "Just one cornetto, give it to me ...."Maybe he's very ambitious with cones?
This is my friend’s son, and his dad and uncle are big United fans too. The family are so made up about this.Tweet

Nice. Getting a picture with sire Alex as a 13 year old must mean he's very highly regarded in his age group?This is my friend’s son, and his dad and uncle are big United fans too. The family are so made up about this.
Tbh, I just knew he plays for West Ham, didn’t know how good he was. I mean, at that age, a dad and uncle aren’t necessarily the most objective or reliable sources of how good their kid is!Nice. Getting a picture with sire Alex as a 13 year old must mean he's very highly regarded in his age group?
