The Premier League champions also had people in attendance to run the rule over the 17-year-old, who only made his league debut back in January.
But Oguntayo has now accepted an offer to train with Palace's Under-23s next week at their Copers Cope Road base.
The pacy teen, who has been likened to City ace Benjamin Mendy, can operate both at left-back and right-wing and has also attracted interest from Watford and Leeds United.

**Coming off of a significant injury, so playing time is probably being managed carefully.
I'd expect the seven non-injured players (if they are actually OK) to be involved tomorrow night, plus Barker and Morgan. I'd also guess that Gavin and Santos from the U18s will abe in the 18.

So can a team for Tuesday be built from these kids?

Wiredu was on the bench on Saturday, so I assume is fully fit now

So can a team for Tuesday be built from these kids?
Yes, of course. It's called the Charlton U23 Development team.

So can a team for Tuesday be built from these kids?
Pretty much. If you add Maynard-Brewer, a sub goalie and Maddison we're up to 14 players. All positions are covered.
I'm not sure how many senior players have to be involved or whether the club is willing to take a fine from the EFL, but it can be done.

If Maddison, AMB, Jennings and Morgan start we tick all the boxes.

To me it would make sense to also include players called up for international duty in our "defence" to the EFL. After all it's not our fault Levitt and Williams aren't playing tomorrow.

Will love it if he's involved tomorrow, be nice for both him and Wiredu after their injuries

I also did wonder about him .
He would be a useful third option to Aneke and Bogle if he is good enough .

I’m sure I the previous 142 pages this has been asked before, but is the Leaburn listed against Barnsley the son of Carl and Tracey? is he 8ft tall yet?

Interesting Maddison not included. Presumably this is good news and Bowyer thinks he's ready for full squad on Saturday. However as this is Charlton could mean he is injured again!
On a side issue I presume this sort of match has to be behind closed doors?

Maddison has had decent 1st team action so presumably doesn't need an U23 runout. By the sound of things Smyth will be available for Saturday as well

Good opportunity for the 23's plus Aneke and Maddison to have a proper run out.

0-0 from the start of the half lads.
They've got a game tomorrow night against Orient.

Yes and no

It is poor value if you also pay to watch games.
They used to make some matches available, FA youth cup possibly. I would be interested in watching both U23's and U18's.
