Interesting bit of info - the goals by Abbott and Kyerematen have Williams as the assist in each case!

Knew he got the assist for Abbott, but flashscores hadn't updated the assist for Kyerematen. Fair to say Williams will get MOTM.

FT 7-0 win.

Williams x 5 (McKnight, Owen)
Abbott (Williams)
Kyerematen (Williams)

No double hattrick for Williams unfortunately, but involved in all seven goals, which is just crazy.

The good thing about Williams is he looks like he can play in a modern day front 3 as the wider player or the main striker. A bit Rashford like but I think he’ll be more muscular.

Wow 5G and 2A for Jaden Williams. Certainly not a bad day at the office for him. This takes him up to 10G and 3A in 15 U18PL appearances at age 17.

He looks to be a real prospect. This is a kid who, correct me if wrong, doesn’t have an England youth cap to his name? Goes to show you some do slip through the cracks in the England setup as he's been phenomenal this season.

What a disastrous loan for Nile John. Not played a single minute for a lower half league 1 team. This is a player who was in and around our senior squad and actually started in the Confrence league. Very bizarre situation, but not a first with a Spurs loan.

After being released earlier this season it seems that Axel Piesold is with Luton in some capacity. He's been turning out for their U18s shadow side, whatever that is.

Conte name checked Scarlett post match. Saying he will be a very important player for Spurs future. All I can say is he must be an unbelievable trainer. Mourinho said it now Conte.

I wonder if it's potentially attitude and/or injury related as he's been featuring for their U23 side.

For all the talent he clearly has I was not impressed at all with his attitude when he featured in the Conference League play-offs. I distinctly remember him playing some poor passes and touches and pouting each time rather than attempting to win back the ball. Not exactly the best way to break into senior football.

I think someone (their manager?) Said they had too many players

So no idea why either wanted this loan to go ahead... But another of their loans was at least, in the same position

Yup manager said he’s been “ unlucky “ not to get minutes. Doesn’t make much sense. Not like they are even fighting for anything.
