marsh challenged him for the ball and might've slightly caught him with his arm and lallana just flipped, got him in a headlock and tried to strangle him
roles scored but i missed it.

He is definitely one who didn't translate his u16 ability to the u18s. He wasn't Ledley but I definitely expected more from him in our u18s.
2 of our 'rejects' (not a big fan of that word) become the best players in the new clubs they join. 3 if you count Kirby.
It's what I keep saying, if our players were at other lower clubs they would be a lot further in their careers and likely highly rated. As it is they play for the u23s and we end up going for the likes of Wilmot*, or wanting to sign Hause, Iorfa or another average player who has just happened to get a chance at a weaker club**. And no one believes our players are actually any good. Suddenly the players who aren't even good enough for us leave and end up starting Championship matches and getting on PL benches. Also helps not being a loanee as the club are invested in playing you, and the players know that they haven't got another club to go back to.
It's why I think it is shame our most talented players are stuck here and think they should also go abroad. England are missing out on serious talent.
*though there have been good reports about Wilmot, I'm confident our best CBs would be a lot more attractive prospects were they given the chance
**I am not saying there is no talent in the lower leagues, the best players in EFL academies can be very good but often it is just one every now and then, and their best players are just as good as ours, but have just had chances. Most of the special talents are ofuond in the best academies, though there are rare exceptions
