Irankunda scores 

On circati, he and volpato are the first players since the gg to follow their trajectories at club level. Really, really impressive. Im hoping i can say that about robertson and bos soo too

How many keepers on the bench?

Yeah does anyone know if he is

Such a long season and he is so young. If he breaks through by the 09/10 season he is still a coinflip to make the epl!

Grella and chipperfield seemed to be on their last legs. We seemed to be amazing in bpo tho, very hsrd to score against! I rewatched the german game and the red card as well as schwarzers mistakes and some issues keeping the back line straight, a lot fell apart quickly, amazing that it was fixed by the next game tho

I don't think Australia had a good game between qualification for 2010 ending until the Ghana game. Denmark friendly was alright. Really scrappy against USA. The Dutch friendly ended goalless. To think The Netherlands came all that way for a kickabout.

No Bennie for QPR. Hope he's getting reserve games.

4th tier league match against Würzburg. Another chance at a full game and this means he won't be featuring in the first team squad tomorrow. A bit disappointing but a full game just before the international break can't hurt.

guessing if he starts he won't play for the seniors tomorrow (no shock mind you! Even if he follows davies path he won't get a lot of time in his first season!)

yeah don't remember a bad match karacic. Miller's dribbling can be an assett. Wins a lot of duels and plenty of time to grow and develop

This video is still up.

Some of these touches are mistakes under pressure against world class opponent. Others....I don't know what I'm even meant to be looking at haha. He got his revenge though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nu5bwRPicGo

Only 19 but it appears he hasn't featured for the Brighton reserves yet this season. EPL is an U21 competition but copying AMB and going out to the 6th/7th tier at this age wouldn't be the worst thing for a season.

Irankunda starting for Bayern Campus. Apparently a big game too. 

Streamed here soon https://fcbayern.com/en/AmateureLivest

thanks!

thanks!
I didn't include yengi because if he breaks through this season i think he will be u26 which puts him in the late bloomer territory, O'niell just misses out too as he broke through last year. Irankunda I didn't include because I wanted to compare two generations of roughly the same span in ages, and those born 2003 and 2002 could still grow

Sorry under 23s I misread 

Hall is on the bench for Brighton 

Irvine has extended with St Pauli. I'll be sorting my DAZN for tomorrow. Won't be around for the Parma game but that's on DAZN too. 

Great writing. Cheers. 

I'm trying to work out where Karacic was particularly poor. He started Japan away and against Tunisia and he wasn't rounded either time and was a very sturdy, well positioned player.

The Oman penalty was dumb but their diving didn't help to milk it. An assist in the other Oman game.

You look at his national team games and he's rarely been involved to say he's had a bad performance. Maybe underwhelming given his lack of attacks but a good short passer and defender. 

Miller is basically a UFC fighter and can pass 5 metres. He should never be new the national team against just like concrete boot Stensness. This is especially due to the other options we have. 

Very interesting. Thanks for putting it together. It's been a lot of fun following the players signing overseas. I think weight of numbers will prove important. There will be attrition and surprises but the more that get a chance he more that should make it imo. 

There were a couple players not mentioned in the article which are the most exciting. Irankunda, Yengi ...  and O'Neill will be important too I think. 

Yeah agree. I think Miller can be an athletic and tough defender, but he needs to play within his limitations. He needs to be more canny less naive. He'll never be the greatest technician, but if he does the rest well thats okay. Not everyone on the team needs to be, particularly in an area of weakness.

I think its also because its Serie A and not EPL. There's less interest the league. It's massive for us. 

Holman is still maligned. I feel like he gets judged very harshly as he was on the shoulder of the GG. Amongst the most underrated Roos imo. 

I think Karacic's early Roos performances looked really promising but dipped badly. I'm not against giving him another go if his club form is good. 

own goal on debut and was hated by fans for a bit

holman also needed to win fans over

What did Davidson do? 

Miller should be forgiven by fans. Davidson bounced back and was a key player in the 2015 wc

Been very underwhelmed with his Socceroo performances so far.

If Strain's out he might be the best option.

thanks!
