Quist Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 U/23s have some good players but struggling defensively. They were looking for defenders pre season and we may have come up short. Only based on John's comments but sounds woeful defending cost us. Also think Thompson required back in charge of these lads to help them progress.

Jim Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 It’s always difficult to know for certain how good the current batch of young players we have are or could eventually be. This current first team squad needs an overhaul at some stage and it looks to me that any number between 5 and 10 of the current under-18 and under-23 team could be become a part of this overhaul. That said who the manager is long term will probably dictate this? I would say it’s a certainty if it’s Bullen but as I’ve said in other posts I have my doubts about whether Bullen has the credentials or not to be the main man at S6.

I think major strides have been made over the past 2-3 seasons regarding the quality of youngsters coming through the system There are fewer trialists coming in and more players advancing through the ranks As for breaking into the senior squad? I'm a believer that if they catch the eye of our coaching staff then they'll get their chance But it's hard for them with a squad like ours - strong in numbers and packed with experience Just as a realistic promotion push would be hard with a squad that relies on youngsters to fill the gaps Loaning these players out to gain experience (when they're ready) still seems like the best option And I'm guessing those decisions have more to do with Steve Haslam & co than whoever happens to be in charge of the 1st team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
