TRO Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 We all love to see the kids do well.....and their talent is always what we look for. but you have to learn to ride tackles and develop an ability to cope with the rigours of the "mans" game. The world cup is so illustrated of this point, despite all the talent on show....the physical side is there for all to see....its crucial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed again, I think that comes with experience, very few have the ability to do that straight away, I think these kids might Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its usually in the players nature and they fine tune it. Croatia displayed a masterclass in the finer elements of it.....didn't give us a minutes peace with their combatitive approach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) Just seen this on Facebook, don’t know how true it is ‘Tyreik Wright, 16, from County Cork has left Lakewood to sign a scholarship at Aston Villa’ Edit- done a bit of research and apparently he chose us over Birmingham City it’s in the Birmingham Mail too Edited July 13, 2018 by sir_gary_cahill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Well he's obviously intelligent then, that's a good start 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) He has good international pedigree too as he was part of the 2 good U17 teams that made the UEFA quarter finals in 2017 and 2018. He was listed as a Villa player in May though so obviously this deal has been done a while. A bit of footage here, he plays a part in all 3 goals: Edited July 14, 2018 by Kuwabatake Sanjuro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is good but I wouldn’t say he’s that similar to Grealish, Taylor is a quick, jinky winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have watched him a few times. He is basically Tony Daley. Gives you a heart attack the first time he runs you, but after a while you just let him go because his passing, decision making and final ball is awful.

Junxs Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Was impressed with many of the lads who played in the 2 games today. (yes im very sad I watched both games one after the other on youtube) With all this doom and gloom I'm kind of excited that many of the youngsters will hopefully be involved in the first team this season, at least its one thing to be positive about. Having said that it would annoy me if Bruce then decides to loan youngsters from other clubs and gives them preference over our own like he did last season. We won the Premier League Cup so these youngsters deserve their chance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unused Sub Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Went to Kiddy Saturday, saw a few of the young lads: Knibbs - switched between up front & right wing, looked more comfortable up top. Skinny looking chap. Could of have a couple more goals. Clarke - generally tidy. Like most of the midfield, took the game like a training exercise. Did the simple things without much fuss. Sulliman - bit of a worry. Not under to much pressure during the game, but got caught out a few times (doing a Ciaran Clark type turn). Ramsey? (the no 2) - came on as sub down the left wing. Looked very good, tried to get at the Kiddy back line. Walker? (the no 15) - came on as sub, liked the look of him at full back . Quite short & stocky.

Daweii Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Our Academy finally (hopefully) getting a shot is one hell of a silver lining after all the doom and gloom over the last month. I am very curious about the team we pick tomorrow against Walsall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
