Re: U-21/U-19 Development Thread

Be interesting to see which senior players are involved tomorrow.

If Blackstock doesn't play the full 90, it may suggest that Fryatt is a 'couple of weeks' sort of injury and that he may be needed on the bench for Wednesday with Dutch lad getting a start.

Vaughan played, which is disappointing as it probably means he won't be involved on Wednesday.

Stuart Pearce would be outraged if he knew we aren't taking youth seriously.


Also does Osborne ever play for the U21s now? Or has he fully graduated up to the first team?

U21s are just glorified reserves now, so he will play for them.

Would be nice to have 2 Burke's on the pitch at once, with neither of them being the referee.

Re: U-21/U-19 Development Thread

Surprised Burke jokes haven't come out before this, disappointed really. Is Oliver Burke a winger or a striker (or both)?

Re: U-21/U-19 Development Thread

He's primarily a winger, who has the physicality and pace to also play as a striker.

I think with his pace, skill and ability to beat a man, he'll be a winger. I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if he makes the squad at some point this season.

Any update on Walker from those who watch? He any closer to stepping up?

Re: U-21/U-19 Development Thread

This is pure guesswork from observing the u21's, but he's been benched recently, although that's in part of Blackstock & Veldwijk getting a go at u21 level. So i'd say he's not ready yet, added to Eastick (think it was him) saying he's still got a bit to do yet before he's ready, and that the purpose of giving him an insight this summer was an incentive to him to push on and get more of it.
