Title: Most promising of our youngsters
Post by: DonnyOsmond on January 09, 2017, 12:30:03 pm
Included all the main lads Under 21 in the poll. Left out Donaldson because we've not seen anything of him.

Great having quality youngsters after our recent history.

We've only really seen enough of Lund, Wright and Middleton to be able to make a judgement aside from Liam really.

Mandeville is walking it for obvious reasons, maybe you should re-run it without him to drum up more of a discussion?

I voted for Lund on the re-run, I think he's looked a talented player since day one in the first team and if he gets over this injury with no hiccups he could be a long-term solution at full back for us.

Honourable mentions for Wright and Longbottom too who both have big potential.

Wright will play at least championship football.

Why is our young goalkeeper Louis Jones not on that list. The lad has been on the first team bench a few times now.  ;)

I'd say wright, beestin and fielding are the ones with the most potential on that list

In the pre game shot ins Jones looks very good.
His handling is better than Etheridges.

Unlike our past youth policy, I would like to think that most, if not all that list, would make a career in  football at league level.
   Whether they are a better standard than in the past,or are at the club when the management will give them a chance is another argument.
