Lupinthe5th Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 2 hours ago, Straggler said: He has a wonderful left foot on him. Takes all the set pieces including this free kick from last night.... (4mins in roughly). It was his assist at 2.43 from the corner too. His striking of the ball really does stand out. Almost forgot that he scored the last goal from the spot too, another clean and powerful hit. Some small thoughts on the game: - Simpson was influential. Not so long ago turned 16. Aston Villa's Pedri! Deserved more than a 7/10 from the Meaning Evil - What a free kick from Finley Munroe! A defender that score pens and free kicks. He's underrated on here. Sure he isn't Brazilian? - Wilson looks no quicker or slower than Haaland at youth level. - Hope our goalkeeper is alright he must of been freezing to death - His Dad and His Uncle won the FA youth cup for Villa so would be a great story if Kobei Moore can achive the same feat - I know I know its only Brentford U18's and have got totally carried away here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 As well as drawing them in the next round of the FA Youth Cup, we've also drawn Southampton in the quarter-finals of the U18 Premier League Cup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeney , Smith Kobei Moore Pierre Munroe all 17 And then Kellyman Sinpson Kaden Wilson Patterson Rowe ( and hopefully Brannigan ) aged 16 And Broggio and Luka Lynch 15 . 10 of them playing regularly at international level . We have some serious talent. And 9 eligible for the Youth Cup next season as well. I think we will start seeing a conveyor belt now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Feeney at Concord Rangers in the Championship Kerr Smith at Stoke in the Championship Kobei Moore at Ebbsfleet in the Vanarama National League Kyrie Pierre at Arnett Gardens in Jamaica Finley Munroe at Maidstone in the Vanarama National League Omari Kellyman at Bradford City in League Two Ewan Simpson still at Aston Villa in the Premier League! (He's made 1 appearance and is currently Transfer Listed) Rory Wilson at Wrexham in League One (10 in 15, they're top because of him) Travis Patterson is a Free Agent (was released, went to Millwall, released again) Even Aaron Ramsey was released (now at Reading, Premier League), as was Philogene-Bidace (Crewe, League One). There's just no future here for any of them I'm afraid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a good bunch in the early 2000s when we won the FA youth cup and older fans may talk about the Mercer Minors, but no I don't think we have. That is the result of the millions of investment the owners have put into the academy. Once we have the inner city academy up and running our net will be even wider for potential talent in the city. Which is one of the youngest in Europe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that the team from 2 years ago was a fluke in many ways. So many locals all with big talent that we suplemented with the 2 Dutch at the back. And developed before NSWE really got their claws into the academy. This year we can see a different type of prospect. Drawn from all around the country but suplemented with the best of the local talent. Kellyman Simpson Wilson Rowe Young and Patterson are 6 of the most highly rated u17s i guess and only half have come through the system . Feeney Smith and Barber the same at u18s All of them key players at international level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 We had 7 current youth internationals in the fa youthcup squad of 2 years ago If Burchall was fit we would have 12 this season with 6 of them representing England between u16 and u18 levels. The academy is working very well indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
