In a couple of pictures, one of them on the official sites "Tuesday Training Gallery" picture 8/10 (yes I am crap at adding pictures...) I see a face that might be Zeki Fryers? If so he seems to be the only "youngster" that was not part of the official Squad for the cup that has travelled with the first team? Could be that he actually has impressed during pre-season, and that he could have a future here?

I saw AVB picked him out in the last game as being really impressive

Nope he has been written off already.

Fryers is with them, Smith is not....sth wrong there isn't it?

Not necessarily. Smith is doing well at what he has been doing. I'm sure there is a "plan" for him. Zeki (if rumours are to be believed) has not impressed. Maybe this is a case of throwing him in the deep end and seeing if it can spur him on.

Yeah and he played center back in that game too so I don't know if they're trying to change his position or if it was a one off.

He might not, but you dont think the reason why he is the only player outside the first team Squad that has been brought to Hong Kong is because AVB sees something in him he likes?

No, I think he is a young player we have made a financial investment in who is therefore guaranteed his chance simply because of that. (A philosophy I despise I might add)

He certainly wasn't our star performer in the U21's last year, so he isn't there over others on merit.

Anyway, his 35 minutes yesterday left didn't leave me questioning my original thoughts on the player... he is nowhere near good enough to make an impression on our first team.
