Such a dream job. Sit and watch U18 games once a week and just say what we all see.We have been unlucky. He could have mentioned that we were playing in red.

The commentary is about as incisive as a pass from Fred.
David Jones' a pretty good analyst.Such a dream job. Sit and watch U18 games once a week and just say what we all see.
Seems decent, I was speaking about the expert commentator. Don't really see the point more than two blokes likes to chat with each other as they seem to fill the same role. Both just say what we all see. I have never heard him talk about formations, patterns, or something like that. Think he has misunderstood his job.David Jones' a pretty good analyst.
That's Arthur Albiston in case anyone doesn't know.Seems decent, I was speaking about the expert commentator.

Not exactly related to U18's but does anyone know who played left back for Scotland and the late 70s and early 80s ? I know Scotland had a good team in this period, but I still think it's strange that Albiston got so few chances for the national team.That's Arthur Albiston in case anyone doesn't know.
Played left back for Utd 1974-88

Maurice Malpas comes to mind.Not exactly related to U18's but does anyone know who played left back for Scotland and the late 70s and early 80s ? I know Scotland had a good team in this period, but I still think it's strange that Albiston got so few chances for the national team.
Frank Gray made 32 appearances 1976-83
Ah, then Maurice Malpas replaced him - 55 caps from 1984-92. And he was first choice LB at the 1986 World Cup with Albiston understudy.Frank Gray made 32 appearances 1976-83
There is a big difference in McNeil and Wilson. The former's a poacher and plays within the pen box mainly. Wilson was a bit of a speed merchant. You can see McNeil adding more to his style of play already as the season progressed. Wilson never really added much variance to his play.McNeil seems to have added some pace....or were the Leeds defence really slow. This kid could make the grade. Just hope he trains on,doesnt get his head turned. But there are so many wunderkids that just did not make the jump from Youth football to Senior.I remember James Wilson scoring goals for fun years ago.
he is certainly adding assists to his goal scoring now. Looks like he is learning and working in training. Apparently he has scored more goals at this age level than Mason Greenwood, so if he continues in that vain, I'll be happy. Could they play together?There is a big difference in McNeil and Wilson.

A Cole/Yorkie combo? Would be interesting if they could learn to play together -- but as of now, they may run into each other's spaces based on their current trajectory.he is certainly adding assists to his goal scoring now.
