Paskotsi has been called up to Estonia senior team
Looks like he's been called up train with the seniors, but will be likely featuring for the U21s per Estonian media.
"U-21 player Maksim Paskotš will also train with the national team initially."

Good for him. He looks a good signing. That Estonian age group is very strong and I imagine they'll want to fast track them into international national football as it may also encourage their clubs to use them

Tanganga with a very solid performance today. Glad to see him get minutes. He'll also have the opportunity to feature for the England U21's in the Euros. Chance for him to build up his fitness and form.

Would get rid of both Doherty and Aurier in the summer and have Tanganga and Foyth on his return from loan be the two options. I was very disappointed how Foyth got frozen out last season but he's demonstrated at Villareal his quality and has even been used in midfield which many of us thought he had the quality because of his ability with the ball.

The Man Utd player with the lion’s mane is Hannibal Mejbri.

Gotta admit that was fun to watch,he did'nt look 18 or 6ft though the manes a dead giveaway.I'm not as clued up as other's on our youth,do you know who our number 5 was? He had him particularly rattled gave his mane a tug,tbh probably saved him from our number 9 was about rip his head off.Liked how at the end their guy grabbed the ball rugby style ran and was rugby tackled again our number 5.

Number 5 was Marsh.

Had a feeling he was cm/cdm so looked him up as was a cb this game.
Don't want be that guy,but i'm certain he's mentioned often earlier in the thread.Is he still rated but unfortunate with injures or catching a break/decent loan.Only small clip but 1st line on website shows his character tallies with the vid,so was curious if he's just unlucky or not developed as quick like Skipp etc.Don't post to often so trying to grab what info I can,was nice to see the players all backing each other up. Love the passion easy to see why this the best thread imo.I'm familiar with the names just not matching to their faces as only see them when guy's like yourself share clips much appreciated kmk?

George Marsh is a tenacious, tough-tackling holding midfielder who joined League Two side Leyton Orient on loan in August, 2019.

Marsh is a decent player. When he was an u16 and first year under 18s he had a good touch and played a similar breaking up game. Bit of a hard man but he didn't really progress and started to play to the hard man stuff. He's never been one of the top talents and but I'd also say his game never really developed.

I would never consider him as one of the ones we missed out on due to the previous policy. In fact I think I remember him being taken on a preseason tour despite his ability purely because of his attitude and character which you recognise. He cant remember exactly what year it was but I could probably name at least 2 CMs or players in general that were more talented than him that should likely have gone on that tour. I think he made a first team appearance in a competitive match. Crazy to think how he and some other were prioritised over our top talent. To that end I'd say he was given more chances than I'd have expected or his ability deserved. As we essentially gave time ans opportunity to a player that would unlikely have made it with us and if he did would've been been squad player at best.

I think he could make it in L1 or L2 somewhere. Has enough versatile ability and a good attitude if he keeps his cool

Thank's and appreciate the informed response,could be wrong but was that the tour Georgio(sp?) a less fancied lb that i think we released recently think he's 23 now.He was quite tenacious in his brief cameo,I remember being upbeat not by him but that he was'nt highly rated yet showed that enthusiasm all fans enjoy and was very eager to see the rated youngsters.I believe it was that American tour when Balotelli mugged himself with that Fifa style skill and missed open goal with a backheel. Was immediately subbed following a lot of booing, the champions cup?.I'm sure it was the 1st of it's kind and we were invited thanks to our CL exploit's.

One question if I may,is there another Marsh? You nailed this one to a tee btw.Keep thinking who the youngster is that scored some crackers in league 1/2 but either his injuries or lack of filling his physique had doubt's he cut it with us,but same time well liked and hopeful of still making a career.Could still be with us 22/23 possibly only 2/3 years ago he was banging goal an am/cm.apologies in advance could google I suppose,but I rather get the opinion from a well informed fellow fan than some random internet search.Might even be amusing figuring out who i'm even rambling on about?

Sound like Jack Roles.
Had a really good loan at Cambridge (I think?) last season but has struggled for game time in his loans this season iirc.

Spurs twitter has just wished Dane Scarlett Happy Birthday. 17.

He can't have any cake until he has signed the pro contract that the club has given him as a present.

According to various social media we beat Arsneal u16s 4-2. Dorrington, Donley, Bloxham and Irow with goals and Irow with an assist also.

I've only mentioned Irow a couple of times before so For those interested he's a striker. Been here for a long time. Think he's really promising. Only seen a few clips of hj. A while ago and looked like a decent finisher (based off a variety of them), determined and fairly cool with people around him.

Not sure of his age group. I think he's born in 2006 based off the tournaments he's featured in. Which makes him an u15 but he could also be an u14 depending on when he is born. I know Scarlett played some u16 games as an u14 but he's also born in the middle of the year so wouldbe been a lot younger and the step up even bigger. Still it's good.

We have a quite a few decent strikers. Him, Donley (obvs), Obiero. I also think either Zak Brown or Zak Nelson are strikers. So doing alright in producing in that area atm
