We are a bit sparse at under 19 level.
Alfie Whiteman was in previous squad, shame he's missed out this time around.
Kazaiah Sterling also could have been called up.

So what was the score vs Costa Rica?

Toulon game where Tanganga starts for England on right of a back 3. Currently 4-1. I thought it started at 7:30 so watching from beginning. You can do the same or watch live here
I was hoping you were going to say Xabi Alonso! Haha...
Got it! Gerrard towards the end of his career when he was playing deeper and taking the ball off the defenders and popping it about. Much more mobile than Carrick who tends to play from a much more restricted zone and less of a dribbler than Barkley who, even when he's playing the playmaker role, can't help himself but barging forward and creating confusion.

Good thing we won't have unrealistic expectations of the young lad then.When his play was described as 'elegant' , I was thinking of Socrates (ex-Brazil capt)
Here are most of em signing. Definitely remember seeing Lyons-Foster but must have been a vid.
Is his potential seen to be in the Carrick-Gerrard tier? Have you seen much of him?Got it!

Sterling, KWP & Tsaroulla too.The only one I can so for sure is a Gooner is Ogilvie, Eyoma's family are gooners I think but I can't say for sure that he is.

Did anyone else hear what Jenas had to say (on 5-live football daily - the one with Rose) about Sherwood's relationship with AVB. Pretty much bang on what many of us had assumed. Jenas said he was constantly in AVB's office getting angry and telling him who he should be putting in his squad on match days.
Rarely can you guess what goes down in football clubs so accurately as I'd have guessed (and have speculated on here many times) exactly how this went down. It's great that an academy director is pushing for the kids to be integrated, but there's doing things the right way then there's doing things the Sherwood way which, you can just imagine, just has the completely reverse effect and alienates those who you want to influence.
And he's a hypocrite as well, because once he'd introduced Bentaleb and he was playing well, as soon as his job started depending on it, he dropped him for no real reason despite his "I can trust him" bullshit.
Bayliss sounds quite similar in playing style to Tashan Oakley-Boothe, one of our outstanding young prospects.
Who do the Academy watchers think is better at this point in time, and who has the most potential?
Bayliss is somewhere between the more dynamic TOB and the more defensive Oliver Skipp.
Thanks. Both TOB and Skipp are great prospects, so we can only assume that Poch and McDermott believe in competition.
I note that the Josh Onomah we've seen in the U20 World Cup has shown clear signs of Poch coaching, playing as a much more disciplined deep-lying CM with improved defensive positioning.
If that means Onomah and Winks will both be in the mix for CM positions next season, rather than the wide AM position where Poch played Josh last season, then we're getting some serious depth in central midfield.
Do you remember roughly how far into the programme it was?
I keep hearing Skipps name mentioned and yet I know nothing about the young lad, would someone mind giving me the info on what type of player he is, thanks!
Also, regarding Jack Roles, with the stats posted the other day when he signed his new deal, why isn't he talked about in the same way as the likes of Edwards, TOB etc
