The Academy, NextGen, U18 & U21 Premier League and On-Loan Thread

Oh and keep an ear out for Kevin Stewart. Ball playing defender in the U-18s. Hasn't signed a professional contract yet but was on the bench for one of the Europa league games. Caulker and him could potentially be our future center backs.

I'd be interested to hear more as I don't have the luxury of seeing these kids play or get many reports on them other than from the guys over a Spurs Odyssey and from WindyCOYS. Which games have you seen him in? What makes you say he may not make it?
 
tbf ive only seen him about 3-4 times and wasnt anywhere near the best player. ive seen him in about 3 academy games and 1 nextgen. not a bad player and was good on the ball, quite strong but seemed to get 'done' too easily at times. like i say its still early and i think he's only 18
 
Not the first time he's played for the U-21s either. Well at least we know he's not injured.

JORDAN ARCHER (Bishop's Stortford) 13.03.2012 vs Halifax Town (A) Conference North (Round 32)
Another clean sheet for the young keeper as Stortford won 1-0.

Tom Baker tested the Bishops net many times from range, but Jordan Archer was more than a match with a string of acrobatic stops.

Archer palmed the ball uncomfortably into the air, but Dean couldn't react in time to beat the keeper to it.

Baker striking another long range effort, but Archer was an equal match as he tipped acrobatically over the bar.

Archer looked suspect when put under pressure, and another long range strike from Baker troubled him.

Archer proving a worthy match once more as he palmed strongly away from goal.

OSCAR JANSSON (Shamrock Rovers) 12.03.2012 vs Bohemians (H) Leinster Senior Cup (4th Round)
Saved two penalties as Shamrock won the shoot-out 5-4 after playing a 1-1 draw.

The visitors hit back and Jansson was troubled by O'Connor's cross on 50 minutes and then had to dive full-length to tip away Dave Mahons volley from 25 yards.

In the 68th minute Graham Gartland was on hand to block Stewarts effort after he chipped the ball over Jansson.

Rovers had a miraculous escape in the last minute of the period when Jansson couldn't hold a low free-kick from 25 yards out and the ball fell for Dave Mahon in front of goal but he shot over the bar with the goal at his mercy.

Harney saw Jansson dive to his right to save Bohs third penalty.

Dave Mulcahy saw his kick saved once again by Jansson to secure the win.

He was really brick tonight,he is going to lose us points SOON.

So far he looks more like a sweeper than a keeper.

He's not great in the air so far, but no goal has been his fault with uncontested flick-ons for all three goals so far.

That keeper isnt too fond of catching the ball now is he, good for the peno saves thought, so he can be a 5 minute hero at least.

Oscar is a liability.has no interest in catching a ball.

Jansson makes me very nervous anytime the ball is near him but hopefully the peno saves will help his confidence.

Jansson would have your heart cross ways but No goal has been his fault this season.

STEVEN PIENAAR (Everton) 13.03.2012 vs Liverpool (A) Premier League (Round 28)
Played the whole game of the derby, picking up a booking for a foul, as Everton lost 3-0. He played in his usual left midfield position, in a 5 man midfield and cut inside often.

Steven Pienaar wasted a good opportunity when he fired over after Leighton Baines' run had taken him past Martin Kelly and Henderson and into the penalty area.

Baines goes on a superb run, nutmegs a defender in the box and lays it off for Pienaar - who fires miles over. That was a chance.

Kelly's marauding runs from right-back were keeping Pienaar and Baines occupied.

Everton break and have four on three with Pienaar, he must pick out a team-mate with Anichebe free on the left. He tries to find Stracqualurasi in the centre - and passes straight to Skrtel.

Pienaar has been poor.

ANDROS TOWNSEND (Birmingham City) 13.03.2012 vs Leicester City (A) Championship (Round 35)
Had a quiet game, other than providing the cross which led to Birmingham's penalty, as Leicester won 3-1.

It was awarded when Nikola Zigic tumbled inside the area under presure from Sol Bamba and Tom Kennedy as he rose to meet Andros Townsend’s cross.

THOMAS CARROLL (Derby County) 13.03.2012 vs Nottingham Forest (H) Championship (Round 36)
After playing 8 games in a row and a series of poor performances, he was dropped to the bench and didn't play as Derby won the derby 1-0.

Buxton, probably Derby's best player against Watford, dropped to the bench, as did on-loan midfielder Tom Carroll.

Tyson comes in for on-loan midfielder Tom Carroll and is expected to line up on the right wing.

As much I don't rate Tyson, it bring some kind of balance to the team, rather then Bryson playing wide to accommodate Carroll.

Pleased to see him take Carroll out, far too lightweight for a game like this.

Glad Carroll is on the bench, maybe he could come on in the last 10 minutes to run at them towards the end.

YAGO FALQUE (Southampton) 13.03.2012 vs Crystal Palace XI (H) U-21s (Friendly)
Falque got a game, albeit for the U-21s, as he played 75 minutes in a 6-0 rout for the Saints, getting on the scoresheet and providing an assist. Hopefully this performance will see him in the Saints first team. This was also his first game since another U-21s match against Brighton on 14 Feb 2012.

The running from Yago Falqu?® made him a handful for the Palace backline, and the Spaniard made the telling pass for Saints' second goal of the game as he put Lloyd ISGROVE through into the area, where the winger delivered a tidy finish across Lewis Price into the bottom corner.

Some neat interplay from Ward-Prowse and Barnard, who released FALQUE into the area on the right hand side, where the midfielder finished low at the near post for 3-0.

The senior players come into this team for a purpose whether it's for fitness or lack of match practice but they'll come in and do a job professionally, and the kids learn from them so to a man they did that today.

It's great when you've got senior professionals who will come in and play the game properly.

DEAN PARRETT (Yeovil) 13.03.2012 vs S****horpe United (H) League One (Round 36)
Available after his one match ban but was left out of the squad as the game ended 2-2.

The Yeovil Town manager had Tottenham Hotspur loanee Dean Parrett available after a one game ban but chose not to change what he hopes is a winning formula.

Johnson kept faith with the match day squad that beat Oldham Athletic on Saturday, with Tottenham Hotspur loanee Dean Parrett missing out despite being available again after a one match ban.

JONATHAN OBIKA (Yeovil) 13.03.2012 vs S****horpe United (H) League One (Round 36)
Played 64 minutes as Yeovil conceded a late goal to draw 2-2.

Jon Obika should have given the hosts the lead, clipping the post with a header from an Ed Upson corner having being given the freedom of the six-yard box.

Dont know why Gary took Williams and Obika off?

hope Falque has done enough, cant be easy playing for u21s. must be hard to not take it personally! on the other hand, perhaps being in a championship topping squad is teaching him some useful bits and bobs.

Good! Bindippers Academy boss was on the radio this afternoon and never mentioned the fact that the only reason they were still in the tournament is because we gonadsed up our selection against them.

He was happy to go on and on and on about how brilliant his lads were. taco.

3 of the goals scored by danish player Victor Fischer.

One of the biggest talents around; he will be a big player in a few years time.

Will get his debut for Ajax senior team soon - no doubt about that

Maybe the biggest danish talent since the Laudrup brothers

That game was on TV last night so caught around 15-odd minutes. Some very neat moves from the Dutch and constant iterchanging of positions in the middle - Pool looked outclassed and outplayed in the time I watched.

Blimey - should have been us in that semi.
