Everton Youth Teams Thread

[Eggs]

Do you think he would benefit from a loan move next season?

...if any of these youngsters are considered top drawer they will be fast tracked in much the same way Davies has been. It’ll be interesting what happens with Hornby given he’s a bit younger than the other U23s and has already made his debut. Gordon is another who will be worth keeping an eye on.

...good player was Milligan. I think he’s only one of two in that group who’s still playing (Southport perhaps). Peter Clarke is the other who I think is at Oldham. I remember Clarke playing for England U21s at Goodison against Christians Ronaldo’s Portugal. Jeffers played in that game.

Keith Southern on the left who played lots for Blackpool, i’ve seen him at Goodison in recent times so he must follow the Blues. I think Carl Regan is on the right, I recall him going to Barnsley after leaving us. Poppleton and McDermott a few of the others.

I think Jamie Milligan was at Fleetwood a while back Eggs,I remember him playing in an end of season game v Boro,2001/2002ish?

..he was Dario, played a while for Fleetwood. He’s a Blackpool lad I think. My memory isn’t as good as yours but I think he got Sky MoM in the first leg of the FA Youth Cup Final.

I guess I should know this, but Gibson is left footed, yes?

Yes - can't tell you a whole lot more about him though.

Yeah Lewis Gibson is a left footer, played left back for England U17s at Euros sox months ago, played left back for our U23s too but has played most of his games as a left CB and forms a good centre back partnership with Morgan Feeney . He’s looked ok in the televised fixtures but defence was undone twice late on against Leicester recently, though he was playing centre of a three , with Foulds left , Feeney right. Still only 17, he seems to me to be the most physically well built of him, Feeney and Foulds but is not a beast compared to others of his age in the England team. At times he looks off the pace, then he does something sound defensively, so still learning and an outside bet to be the first one born in 2000 to play in the PL for us.

I came across this photo a few years ago , Davies, Dowell at the back , Connolly and Kenny in it with Walsh being dwarfed by the Cup. I posted it in the Kieran Dowell thread as someone asked how long he and Davies had played together. Milk Cup in N Ireland I believe, not sure which year. A few of those became Scholars but never made it with us.

this was our kit for 2009/10 season wasn't it? so at least as far back as then.

Echo saying we want to bring a blue home - Callum Wright, released by us at 13, 17 now at Blackburn.

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spor...s/everton-lining-up-january-transfer-14094837

Everton are eyeing a January transfer swoop for teenager Callum Wright.

The Blackburn Rovers star has emerged as one of the most in-demand young midfielders in the country and the Blues want to add him to their under-23s squad.
But Everton face stiff competition from a host of Premier League clubs who have been alerted to the 17-year-old’s talent.

It is understood that Leicester City, Spurs and Stoke have also registered their interest in the Liverpool-born player who was released by Everton at the age of 13.
Wright joined Rovers in 2015 and his performances at Ewood Park have brought him to the attention of a clutch of top flight sides.
Everton are hoping to bring him back to Goodison as part of a revamp of David Unsworth’s u-23s squad.

...tonight’s U23 game at Southport has been postponed.

Which one is davies?

 

[Billy Dean]

Which one is davies?

the one directly behind walsh i reckon

 

[blueloon]

the one directly behind walsh i reckon

I’m not sure who that is, I initially thought it was Kenny , you may be right , but I had Davies down as 3rd from left at back , with Dowell next to him , then ? , then Connolly , then James Graham who we let go .Either side of Walsh are Antonee Robinson and Joe Williams. They have mixed years there . You’d expect Kenny and Ryan Ledson to be in there but not I don’t think so.

Is that not ledson next to Walsh

I’m thinking it’s Joe Williams, sharper nose than Ledson. This is a young Joe, make your own mind up , all these haircuts really mess with things !
