Everton Youth Teams Thread

Didnt Markelo say in an interview that he would be with the 1st team in preseason as per a conversation he had with Brands?

But havent seen him named anywhere...
 

Can anyone who watches the U23's regularly tell us a bit about the team as some of these youth players we are putting in look to be a bit crap.
 
Think some of the defenders look ok stepping up but we have nothing From an attacking sense coming through which sums up unsworths side, could do with changing the set up to more to mirror the style of our first team so it's a more natural step up
 

Gibson was assured today but wasn't under much pressure.
Broadhead had good moments. I don't think he's ready for the first team and should probably go on loan but if we end up selling Lookman, Henry can't play and we can't sign another winger I guess he's 4th choice.
Adeniran isn't ready.
Hornby looked off the pace.
Connolly is fine but I still don't think he's a Premier League player.
Williams probably sealed another loan with his moment of madness. You just can't do that in preseason.
Overall I wouldn't say anyone who wasn't already in contention to play made any progress toward the first team.

With the exception of Williams, I've seen most of these play a few times. And the ones I made judgments about the future of I've definitely seen a few times or in Williams case I'm just guessing that getting yanked off immediately after putting in a tackle that might have been red in a competitive match isn't a good sign. I want them all the succeed but with the exception of Gibson and Broadhead none really looked the part today. Guys like Gylfi, Gomes, Digne and Keane all looked like they were a higher caliber of player than the rest of what was going on out there. I can't say any of the youngsters fit into that category.
