Henry, DickPlumb, and anyone else who watches the yoot regularly, how would you rank the following:
Terrell Thomas Kenneth Yao Daniel Bowry Anfernee Dijksteel Anyone else I can't think of off the top of my head.
Dijksteel will be in the first team very soon. The only thing keeping him out is Aribo. I've not seen a lot of Terrell Thomas but he's playing regularly for Woking at a young age. Says a lot.
Bowry is decent too. Can't see him being anywhere near the first team for a few seasons bough. He's simply not big enough yet but he's quite composed under pressure. Has come on a hell of a lot in the last 12 months.
Yao is small but still young. Not seen Tom much of him but I see him more as a full back compared to a centre back (he's played both this season).
Lapslie is another one who could make a quick break through. Again, it's unfortunate for him that we are blessed with good young CMs. Can slot in nicely at full back. Very comfortable there. Solly-esque springs to mind.
Cheers for that lads. I suspect that if we were still in any of the cups, or if Slade had shown any interest in youth beyond Konsa, we'd have seen Lapslie and Anfernee on the pitch for the first team by now. Dijksteel has made the bench a couple times which indicates he's knocking on the door.
Saw the U23's yesterday and thought Lapsie, Dijksteel and Kennedy looked real prospects as well as a number of others that are maybe a year or so behind. Those three should certainly be featuring in our Cup teams next season. Yesterdays number 2 looked quite tasty too

Yesterday's number 2 looked quite tasty too. - that sounds just wrong ;0)
