Anyone know young Callum Elder? He's on loan at Mansfield Town from Leicester, a youth product there. It gets better. He's a left back :D

Full matches last night also for Federici, James Meredith and Giannou. Alex Grant, on loan from Stoke, also played a full game and scored, as did Irvine who got an assist.
Bozanic and Halloran played in friendlies until half time and the 57th minute respectively, and Weslowski was stretchered off after just 17 minutes in his League Two match.
Panos Armenakas, still only sixteen, is getting game time in Udinese's Primavera (U20's) now, coming on at the 55th minute in the first match of the new year. He also came off the bench in the 80th and 83rd minute in the last two games before the Christmas break. Very promising.

Unsure whether to post here, the NPLV thread or make it's own, but here you go: Geelong Addy wrote:[size=6]North Geelong Warrior Stjepan Trbuhovic trialling for Croatian soccer powerhouse Hajduk Split[/size]NICK WADE GEELONG ADVERTISER JANUARY 17, 2015 12:00AM  North Geelong’s Stjepan Trbuhovic on the burst. Picture: LEANNE KELLYNORTH Geelong Warriors young gun Stjepan Trbuhovic’s breakthrough opportunity has arrived after being asked to trial for Croatian soccer powerhouse Hajduk Split. The 18-year-old midfielder left Australia last week and will spend the next month training with the famous club in a bid to earn a contract. Geelong’s own Josip Skoko started his overseas career at the Croatian club before taking his talents across to England. Trbuhovic has gone with the blessing of Warriors coach Micky Colina, who said the youngster would get invaluable experience even if he didn’t make the final cut. “From what he’s told me, the senior players have gone to Italy for a week in their winter break, so he’s training with the fringe players and their youth team, so to speak” Colina said. “They return next week and he’ll join them. “Hopefully in a couple of weeks’ time he will have a better understanding of where he stands and if it does work out to be successful he will remain there for their season, which finishes around May. “And if everything works out to plan, I’m guessing he will stay there through their summer break in the midyear.” Trbuhovic’s immediate absence has created a balancing act with the Warriors’ roster, with lodgement deadlines looming. But under any scenario, the newly promoted NPV club is confident Trbuhovic will be able to play for the Warriors this season if the Croatian experience does not go to plan. “Even if things don’t work out for whatever reason, even if he finds out a bit later, he will still come back and participate in our season this year,” Colina said. “Obviously I’m supportive of this kind of thing and the opportunities it creates to get to the next level. “It will be a good opportunity for him. We wish him all the best. “As I say, it’s an experience you can put in your pocket and no one can ever take it away from you.”

Hopefully follows in the footsteps of Spiranovic.

Apparently Empoli are delaying a loan agreement for Brillante for some unknown reason, which is starting to piss Grella off. They are also looking at options in Serie B as well as interested clubs in the EPL and Bundesliga.

Brillante will get more game time at Empoli but really how much ? Have a feeling it wont be enough better of going Serie B can't recall any players going from the A league straight into the starting XI of one of the big 4 leagues.

In regards to a loan for Brillante, I think Serie B is more likely. Empoli just brought back Riccardo Saponara from AC Milan who is more of a CAM, but they have alot of versatile midfielders with attributes similar to Brillante. They also play with a 3 man midfield. Empoli might also be waiting on the sale of their best midfielder, Valdifiori, so that that could explain the prolonged status of the move. I think La Spezia are still interested in him and have been for a long time, so that could be where Brilla ends up.

A bottom table championship team the only other realistic option would be slightly better but if their are no offers which I'm assuming is the case he is better of at this lowly ranked team getting 90 mins a game than sitting on the pine.

Think a lot of teams send youngsters to Scotland to toughen them up. For a defender it's hardly a bad move, he will be better for the experience. Good was playing the same level at 20, this guy is 18?

As a whole Scotland are developing alot of promising youngsters at the moment, I have seen very few coming through for Australia (I'm talking about coming from the A-League).

The last match i went to was absolutely awful, I would have been better going to watch a sunday league game at my local club. As a whole Scotland are developing alot of promising youngsters at the moment, I have seen very few coming through for Australia (I'm talking about coming from the A-League). I don't think Ross County problem is their Slow start to the year good to hear your unbiased , In forum views..I look forward to watching all theses young Scottish players at next World cup Well getting to the World cup can be hard when you have a such a competitive qualification section, Something Australia does not have. Although i do believe that we will make both the Euro's & Russia 18. I was merely suggesting that Ross County have a new manager with new idea's who has brought in new players.. cannot be judged by their poor start.
