Binks for me, Casey is doing well at RB

We did not deserve to lose this match a draw would have been a fair result.

West ham second goal was a peach of a free-kick.

Whittaker also impressed me but he is too one footed and held the ball too long.

He has played a lot better in the other matches, shame Pedder went off at half time hope he is not injured again.

Our Under-16s beat QPR 5-0 at Hotspur Way this morning. Dane Scarlett scored 4 and Renaldo Torraj scored the other. Dante Cassanova assisted 2, Roshaun Mathurin assisted one and Torraj assisted another.

We’re also hosting an Under-15 international tournament at Hotspur Way today.

Ive just heard on extra inch podcast that apparently sam Sashaoua was kicking up quite a stink and was sold for behaviourial issues? This is the first I'd heard of this. Can someone provide some confirmation either way?

Did Windy say it?

Abraham has scored goals against the teams he scored against last season. Let’s see how he gets on against the rest. England centre forward? Really!
Will a hat trick away at Wolves change your mind at all?

The third was a superb goal.

He definitely has a lot of great physical tools to excel. Even though it's for Chelsea which is upsetting, it's good to see a youth player start to blossom and he is clearly full of confidence right now.

Would Scarlett and Mathurin been in next years intake ? Or 2 years away ? Both sound very exciting.

Ok, ye it is. Even I was surprised to hear about Shashoua but its not the first time I've heard about some academy players acting up, but then they are kids or young adults. This will happen, even the players fans don't expect it from or players that the fans love, they will all have their moments but obviously some more disruptive than ever. I've heard plenty of stories, some I may have alluded to in the past, but the majority I won't mention as 1) I'd rather not speak about something I can't guarantee I know the full story on, 2) these academy players have it hard enough coming through without the fanbase already getting onto them before they have a chance and 3) if I hear something about one person and say it I feel I'd have to say what I hear about all of them otherwise I'm painting an unfair picture about one.

I always find it funny seeing fans pass comment about a players character when they don't know them and seemingly believing one players shows the right mentality or traits while others don't off hearsay or just watching them play.

Good luck to Sam either way. The link up between him and Mount at u17 level was always great, hopefully he really settles in Spain and shows us what he can do, and England can end up with another top option

That'd be good to see them get game. Realistically the only u16s size and ability wise that would be able to step-up. Forson is already playing for United's u18s as well, so he will also be in that competition.

this summer was probably the worst thing that could've happened for tanganga, now he's missed out on a loan where he may have actually played. same thing happens pretty much every pre-season where poch plays a few kids and people build up his rep of giving youth a chance but then the season starts and they all sink without a trace, just look at skipp who was arguably our best performer over the entire pre-season and now he's lost his place to wanyama who we've been trying to shift all summer. complete waste of time.

When we were looking at Wilmot it was clear in my eyes who was the better player, but he due to circumstanes ended up on tour and showed everyone how good he was despite being behind Dinzeyi and Eyoma apparently, and essentially stagnating last year. Everyone was raving about him, but now he will disappear again and the whole preseason will be meaningless.

I don't even know what the plan is for him, did he resign a new contract. He like Hinds is one that should try their luck away from the club.

As I'm on Hinds and also been speaking on Chelsea, if we could between us actually bring through at least 2 of these 4, KWP, Hinds, Lamptey and James England would have the best RB options in the world hands down. Two will have to leave though I reckon, but both clubs have done well for producing RBs, that's even forgetting to mention Aina and Sterling at Chelsea.

Yeah that is pretty ridiculous Wanyama was on bench over Skipp against Palace.

Poch does make some daft decisions...

Pointless with Wanyama as surely must know he’s knackered.

I heard today that Michael Craig is out for 3 months and I believe J’Neil Bennett is out for another 6 months.
