Everton Youth Teams Thread

[Billy Dean]

You can not put Tait in the same box as Unsworth his style of football is totally different, he is a progressive possession based coach did you not watch the youth team at Goodison this season?
Full of under 16/17 players playing with an aggressive press out of possession and an expansive attacking style in possession.
Do not get confused with our u23 low block [Poor language removed]!!
Listen to Anthony Gordon speak glowingly about Paul Tait and how he helped him progress through from u15/16/17/18 and he is not the only player, Halid Djanpata on the official site saying how the coach cares about the person not just the player also the new striker from Sunderland waxing lyrical about Tait. These are the traits of a modern progressive coach not Unsworth screaming about second balls!!

Fair enough mate, as I said I haven't really watched the games. I can just remember those comments from Tait from a while back.

I wonder if any of the u15s will make sub appearances at u18 this season. From memory Ebere and Lawrence made at least one appearance as u15s last season . The one trend established by Brands was playing youngsters up earlier, hopefully Thelwell will be looking to continue that direction.

I think the most likely to is George Morgan, like Ebere & Lawrence another forward. Pretty sure he’s been on the bench already earlier this season.

Best of luck with that kid, tough one to suffer, especially at your young age.

Feel for the lad but Christ I hope we send these kids to school for their grammar.

A big big shame for him , hope he makes a speedy recovery, he’s looked the most promising of our 1st year Scholars .

One benefit of a possible relegation is it means, or should mean, the kids see more action.

Great to see Lewis transferring all the things he showed at u23 level to senior football - tenacity, vision, skill - and even a goal!

Honestly might be miles away from a premier league footballer but would not have done any worse than current first team midfielders over last few months

9th placed Everton u18s after 3 straight league defeats are back in action today at the strange time on a Friday of 4pm home v Middlesbrough who are in 6th place, Everton u18s have won the last 10 home games v Boro and are just the 1 point behind them, a win will put Everon 5th

----
While the Everton u23s are away to 5th placed Man Utd u23s with a 7pm ko,- The game is NOT on MUFC as said last week due to Wolves playing Leeds in the prem league

Yes , I believe so . I haven’t seen a team sheet but noticed he had an arm band on.

Samuels-Smith now playing a year up with England U17. Usually a sign that a player is particularly rated.
