I do acknowledge the disparity in the standard of football but it's so refreshing to watch a winger in a City shirt who's willing to actually back himself to beat a defender. Who knew? I'd forgotten what that looked like. Jack and Riyad; please take note.

We have a couple in the academy,if they do get to the first team im sure management can beat it out of them.

I hadn’t realised he was so young until reading the first page.

Hope he continues to flourish as the times I’ve seen him I have been impressed. He rarely gets knocked over or off the ball and more often than not makes 30 yards running with the ball.

He looks a very good player. He looks to be very comfortable on either wing and very good with both feet, which I think as a winger is very important. I like Grealish..he's clearly got talent but often he's too predictable and the full back knows that he is desperate to come back on to his righht foot. Rarely does he go on the outside, whereas if you can use both feet it becomes more difficult for a full back to control the situation

I bow to the knowledsge of OPs who contribute to the EDS and Academy threads as I don't watch the youngsters in person and have limited knowledge of their abilities.

I know several poster regularly complain that the players don't get a chance in the senior teams due to Pep, which may or may not be valid , as I don't know. How realstic are these claims if the professional coaches are not selecting them is my dilemma really.

Within the players which player(s) do posters feel are the most likely to be / should be in line for progression into the senior team set up either immediately or soon ?

Thanks

Signed a new contract last summer

Presumably that’s just a two year scholarship though. He won’t be able to sign a pro contract until he’s 17 this summer.

Yea it's a scholarship, but that's all he can sign like you say

That makes it not worth much if Dortmund for instance come calling though. As an aside, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens scored a great goal for Dortmund yesterday.
