Hopefully they will be given time to mature and not be saddled with the label of Next Golden Generation.

Media already at it I'm afraid

Lookman looks like a great player in the making,as long as he carries on taking players on and does not have it coached out of him.

I won't be able to see it then, I've only got terrestrial.

Sadly most of those players will not get a look in at their clubs because they buy in players from abroad

[drfchound]

BBC says that there have only been 72 PL appearances between the players in the team.

Not necessarily true - there's a few Everton players in there that already have and a couple of fringe players from other PL clubs have also featured. Notable that (I think) there is only one Man U player and no City player in the squad. It is vital they see first team football thats for sure, but some of them may have to be bold enough to go abroad rather than sit on a bench for tens of thousands of pounds a week but only a few minutes playing time.

That's not bad to say it's the under 20's, at that age you won't find many who's a regular in one of the big leagues in Europe.

looking at that it seems the way forward has to be double-barrelled surnames!

[DevilMayCry]

I saw the match against Italy, and England deserved to win. I hope England will win the final against Venezuela and become world champions

Are you ATS's agent?

having a double barrelled name really puts a lot of weight on the kids shoulders (must be a couple of grams with the extra lettering) but generates extra cash for their clubs in shirt sales

do we we really want to know the kids sire and dam 

if their parents actually got married or not got divorced then their would be no need for this ego crapp
in simple terms they are telling the world they might be B******s

[Alan Southstand]

Watched the match last night and we were impressive. Just what does happen with these excellent lads as they near the senior side, or, indeed, the U21's?

[DearneValleyRover]

U21's won the Toulon tournament last year not an easy thing to do

[Rovers91]

It's a shame all premiership managers aren't like Pochettino and give young English players a chance.

[Belle_Vue]

It is yes, and it's not done Spurs too much harm

[RoversDave]

Final is on BBC2 at 10.50 on Sunday morning.

Excellent!

And they've won it again today on pens!!

[godlike1]

They need to keep the players in these teams together as they progress through the age groups regardless of which clubs they play for.

The problem with England is you get too much swapping around and players who have never played together so there is no cohesion or understanding

[acko]

The future might look rosy after what the young lads have achieved at under 19 and 20 level and i expect the under 21s to shine at their euros,then we come down to earth as as been pointed out by Filo how many will be getting plenty of game time in the prem.Best most can hope for is Championship level which is a pity and untill the heads of FA realise this nothing will change

we're hamstrung with regard to EU nationals because of Bosman, but there should be a quota system for other nationalities - max number per squad and per team sheet for each match; take the power away from the agents - sick and tired of watching second rate foreign players littering the game while England-eligible sorts languish in reserve teams or ar farmed out on loan; we do more to further the international ambitions of Burkina Faso, Equatorial Guinea and the USA than our own national team...

[mushRTID]

Great use of technology there, didn't add any delays, correct decision given.

[ravenrover]

What would have been the decision if not a pen? Had the ball gone dead? Not seen it myself on hols

[glosterred]

Well done England World Cup winners
