picicata Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 We have some youth players with cracking names. Good luck young fella 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I think it’s good that we’re looking to recruit young players from abroad as it will promote our name over there. The players that we do recruit from abroad very rarely go on to play for our first team unless they are exceptional. I have no knowledge of this player whatsoever but will watch his progress with interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Another terrific name added to the youth set up. Sil Swinkels. Top stuff! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Hope we don’t adapt the Lukaku chant to Swinkels, he’s got a massive winkle. good to see the club stocking up the academy as they’ve stated they would do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 I imagine he and the Irish defender from St Partick's that we're signing will compete for a place in the U18s and a few of last seasons' U18 defenders, possibly Myles Sohna, will be moved up to U23 level and Dominic Revan and Bridge will hopefully get loan moves.
