I don't know if it was @IGSpur or not but someone definitely said that goalkeeper Adam Green had joined Cardiff. I've looked through Cardiff's latest intake and their youth reports and he's never mentioned. I can't find any trace of him anywhere else either.

hopefully that's as a three rather than josh playing as a #10. i'm not really sure what to make of josh and amos playing but happy to see a strong side nonetheless.
Let's hope it means that Poch has decided that getting semi regular, semi competative football is better for youngsters development then minimal minutes from cup matches and straight training with the 1st team.

Picture of Troy Parrott on Getty from tonight. He looks about 23,he’s gonna be an absolute beast. With his touch and technique frightening what he could become.

Explain... I haven't had the pleasure of watching him play. Could you give more information on where he plays, his strengths and weaknesses? Thanks you!!

He’s a striker. As said I’m theory he has everything to be the perfect modern day striker. The only possible weakness maybe pace, I think he has decent pace without being electrifying. But I’m being fussy.

Whatching the u18 game apiarentley there’s an u18/20 game on other pitch Tanganga , Roles , Duncan , dinzeyi all playing . Winning 2 0 . Roles has scored both . Can’t understand why we don’t play him more , when he clearly scores goals . I’m also hearing shaushoa gone on loan

Was it a strong Chelsea team? On paper looks a fantastic result. Really liking the look of our u18s this season.

they were strong in terms of the team they'll be using in the league this season but just like with skipp and parrott they have a few who have moved up to the u23s early, think the only regular they were missing today was anjorin who looks a good player. annoyingly we actually dropped from 1st to 2nd today as arsenal thumped leicester 7-0 so went ahead of us on goal difference.

That's something I've been wondering. Generally in the past, those playing up a level have dropped down for the FA Youth Cup. We've a very strong team this year if Skipp and Parrott are involved.

Hasn't stopped Harry K.
Needs to watch HK to see how he compensates
for lack of 'electrifying' pace
by cutting across his pursuers
and using his strength and determination.
Although I think HK has speeded up
over the last season or two.
