beloved_aunt Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Having some kids in the team is great, though I can see why Jos doesn't want to play more than 2-3 at a time as youngsters need some experienced heads around them and its unfair to chuck them all in at the deep end together. The mystery is Penny, apparently one of the brighter prospects and a natural at a position (LWB) where we don't have any other naturals. Must get his chance soon surely?

Like to see Penney get a game at LM v Sunderland to see if he can make the step up.. Think it's reasonable to play a few more too, we have a difficult game v Brentford less than 72 hrs after and two winnable games at home to round off next week, which would start to define our season if we can pick up points, or fail to pick up a win. Expect Palmer, Jones, Boyd, Nuhiu and Matias to start, possibly Lees as captain, so we have a spine of experienced players. Along with Penney, would like to see Preston start in a front 3 and J.Lee, Hunt get some minutes from the bench, as they've been featuring in the matchday squad so obviously in Jos' plans and would be a useful test against good opposition.

Sheff44 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Deluded, we won't do anything this season, with this squad, especially if we get injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is how the clubs are doing it today. Burnley. Brentford. Dem Blades. Barnsley. Bournmouth. Out of interest, I wonder who would qualify as the last such star or hero to come out of our youth system? It's been quite a while I think..

Owl Be Back Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I'm worried they won't, because previous behaviour says so, but I really hope all the fans give the young lads the time they need and support them all the way. We need to understand the sh*t situation we are in and it's only the players at the club that can save us and the youngsters will play a critical role as more and more senior players are sold off to satisfy FFP.
