nice play between tob and shashoua for the goal, they've probably been our two best players so far, shashoua especially. blf and eyoma solid at the back too, Ipswich have had the majority of the ball but we've had some good openings.

Ipswich much the better team in the second half and our back line did not handle the pressure that well.

Tom Bloxham, Owen Riley, and Luca Gunter were called up to one of the England u15 camps. Also apparently someone called Riley Cooper though I have not heard of him.

If there are more camps I imagine Dorrington and Piesold could also be in the reckoning

Jamie Donley was at an England camp in the last week or so as well (I assume the same one), despite representing Northern Ireland over the last couple of years.

I thought I had put Donley down as one of the ones I had expected to get a call up but clearly forgot. Thanks doesn't surprise me as I think he's one of the better players in that age group.

From what I’ve seen I’d have him as the best in the Under-15s, but that could be due to the size difference between him and most players his ago (I’d have him as about 6ft). Despite his physical advantages he is still one of the best technically in his age-group as well, definitely one to watch.

From what I've seen Bloxham, Donley and Piesold all look the part in that year group. Dorrington looked handy at CB too

Desperately want our line up in 5 years to be:

Casanova Parrott Piesold

Purely based on names. Piesold just makes me chuckle every time.

I haven’t actually seen much of Piesold, but Dorrington (another 6ft+ player) is considered the best in the age-group by teammates and coaches, although I think Donley just edges it. Bloxham is very much a ‘mini-messi’ (emphasis on mini), all great players to look out for. Others who look promising from that age-group are Brandon Bryan-Waugh, Shannon Brown, Luca Gunter (as you said), Jaden Williams and Max McKnight.
