Our U18s lost 2-1 at home to Fulham today. Our goal was scored by a sub Clark.

Starting XI

Spurs U18s (v @FulhamFC): De Bie, Tainio, Hinds, Bowden, Okedina, Lyons-Foster, Patterson, P Maghoma, Richards, Reynolds, Griffiths.

Spurs U18s subs (v @FulhamFC): Pochettino, Statham, Mukendi, Clarke, Freeman (GK).

Good to see Rayan Clarke get on the score sheet after his injury problems.

just turned 17. haven't really seen him use his left much so it's difficult to say, like winks he'll typically try and keep it on his right.
For those of you old enough to have seen him, he reminds me of Terry Naylor. Something about his body shape and movement. Should be a much better player than Naylor though.

Great news that Clarke is finally back and he picked himself up a goal. Hopefully, he stays fit and is the same player.

Haven't posted for years, but just watched that video of Skipp and his playing style is identical to Matic. Maybe even a touch more pace and agility, but difficult to say from one highlight video. Looks a very good player.

Nketiah scores 4, Embleton & Breteton 1 each.

Sancho enjoyed his promotion with 3 assists

Nketiah currently the 2nd highest goalscorer for Eng u19s and has only played about 3 games. The kid is prolific.

Ironically the best midfielders of this age group when they were u16s/17s have all suffered injuries if they can reach their previous ability it will be stacked all over. I will have to watch the game back,
