Everton Youth Teams Thread

He's with the first team in Austria.
Which is fantastic but surely the club wouldn't stop him from going away for the U/19 Euro's just so he can go to a training camp.
Iirc they did the same with Ledson who had also been captain, perhaps to give them a bit of a break to avoid burnout and give others a tryout?
Which could make sense, he's only just turned 18 two weeks ago so he'd be bottom age but this is the U/19 European Championship, I would presume the manager picked who he thought was the best squad.
 

Looked great whenever I saw him, and thought he'd break through to our first team. But alas, like so many others, he's sold before been given a proper chance. Good for him though.

Well we released Baines and Jagilelka as lads, and bought them back, so maybe John makes it back by working his way up through the league?
 
Anyone know why Davies isn't with the England U/19's? Or was he simply just not selected.
Davies was never in that age group alongside Ledson/Kenny/Connolly, a few months ago he was playing for the U17s. He's probably just not been considered because he's too young.
 
Yeah saw that pic with Walsh on my phone, a bit disappointed for him but plenty of time yet. Banigime, Feeney, Evans from u18 but no Lavery (boo !) . Also no Brewster in that picture either and a few seem to have been left behind, all will be clear soon enough.

....I wouldn't have been surprised had Walsh been with the first team, he looks the part. Glad to see Banagime make the step up, very impressed with him last season. So difficult for forwards like Brewster, I think he might have to prove himself at a higher level than Stockport.
 
The reasons for Davies not in u19s are covered above, the surprise for me is that Dowell wasn't included. It's a tight England bunch who have largely grown up together in the past few years so difficult to break into, but his u21 form and PL debut warranted consideration. A chance for him though to be fresh for pre season and make his mark.
 
As nice as it is for the club to have players in the England set-up with the timing of this tournament I'd rather none of them were there and were all around the first team to be given a chance to impress Koeman some more.
 

Read that as Kenny RB and Connolly at LB; something has definitely gone on with Ledson since start of last season with Rossiter starting ahead of him. I'm going to be cheeky and stream this game so will let you know how the lads get on.
Yeah, given Ledson used to be captain of this side there has been a definite recent shift although didn't Rossiter used to be captain himself?

Would appreciate the uodate on how they get on, it is on Eurosport if you have that channel.
