The official EDS and academy thread 2012/13

[FantasyIreland]

My first post here so hope I don't get shouted down, but isn't Razak a youth player from the EDS? or is he too old for that group?

Also can see why he is put this squad out, he wants to finish second and needs to win.

I hope Suarez is patient, his time will come and if not at City then on loan somewhere.

At the moment at youth level overall from what I have seen, we are not strong enough, lately results have picked up but we need to get that right and an increase in competitive games.

We didn't do well again in the nextgen so lots to work on.

But def moving in the right direction.

Welcome mate.

Razak is too old for EDS.

I agree about the need tonight.Imagine had he played youth players and it backfired?? those clammering for their inclusion would have been amongst the first to slag Mancini.

Two games remaining,hopefully we'll be carefree to utilise one or two there.

Yeah, thanks for that.

Watching the game and I think I would play Razak instead of Garcia anyway!

15 mins into second half and we are penned in to our own half!

This win should mean a few youngsters getting a chance. You'd think.

Tie up the 3 points we need for second and we can play a number of youngsters then.

I too would think Suarez would benefit from a season on loan getting regular football somewhere. I really hope Mancini decides to bring Rekik more into the fold next year, he played a solid match against reading.

Sadly ,according to Blackburn fan I know, he didn't do very well with them but good experience nonetheless.

Sounded a very similar story to that of Boyata.

He was played out of position(left wing?) on his first appearance and didn't do well,he was then dropped/benched,probably lost confidence,and didn't hardly play again.

They played Rekik that far forward? I always felt Rekik should have been loaned to a league 1 team for the year and starting most of those games, since he's only about 18 right?

He was in and out and yes that first appearance was a bit of a crazy position for him.I know a couple of the games he played were at full back.One where Morrison was playing for Leeds and dominated him first half but he came out in the 2nd and did much better.

How is Razak too old for EDS - he still qualifies for the U21s next season as he is not 21 till November.
