Re: Everton Academy, U21s etc...
I’d love to see him get a few minutes here and there, probably not physically up to much more than that, but he bloody knows how to finish.
Re: Everton Academy, U21s etc...
Yea, still looks very much a kid to me. Looks a great talent, don't get me wrong, but I'm not sure he's bothering a hairy arsed 6 foot plus seasoned CB... yet.

Think thats a massive problem for us. We are rarely comfortable enough in games to give some of our youngsters minutesblueforyou wrote: ↑Fri Feb 13, 2026 8:20 am When we are 4-0 up...

Don’t think many teams are often 4-0 up bringing on under developed teenagers
Re: Everton Academy, U21s etc...
I think people massively underestimate the gap in physicality between the youth cup and the premier league.
He wouldn’t get a touch.

The club don’t even think he’s physical enough to go to league 2 which is where they send lads who obviously will never play prem football, so there is absolutely no chance this guy is playing any first team football any time soon.
I’d be delighted to see him on loan next year.
What position do you play in the modern game if you are a small centre forward with a wicked finish? Every cf in the league is a monster.

Yeah. Unless he’s a roadrunner he’s not gonna do anything in men’s leagues just yet.

Not against him having the odd training session with the first team though to give him an idea of what it’s about and let him understand what he’s aiming for.

Re: Everton Academy, U21s etc...
18 I think. He's too small and slight to play in the prem up front. There are other positions he can play and do well in though. Apparently he's been playing out wide and cutting in and scoring a bag load
