BP1960 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Half time 2-0 All played well with the pick for me right back Hackett, left winger William's and striker McKinney. The tall quick number 9 Callum Parker of Nantwich is worth another look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The striker McKinney looks an outstanding prospect. Superb ball control and skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Latics number 6 looks lke. Tarkowski. terrific left foot. The Nantwich keeper must be 6ft 6ins..made some terrific saves. I'd definitely sign him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Probably the best set of quality youths I've seen in many years, ok it was lowly opposition, but Nantwich never gave up and their giant keeper was top notch.(must sign him). Hard to pick out any individuals out, but striker McKinney stood out for me with some mesmerising close skills. Will be interesting to see how they fare against higher opposition, I'm sure they will do well though. Usually only a couple come though youth set ups, but there's at least half a dozen here who could make the grade judging on individual ability. The coaching staff are to commended for producing so many exciting prospects, some of whom we have seen appear in the first team already on merit.

What was encouraging about this team is most are16 and under. The 15yo centre forward Emmerson is going to be a real handful, and for a big lad has a fair turn of pace. Goalkeeper..Big and strong. Full backs both quick and good on the ball. Centre backs both powerful Midfield both ran the show Wingers both quick and direct Strikers both great prospects, can see big money in for them.

BP1960 Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 It was also pleasing to see the 3 subs look good prospects too. The big striker who came on for about 15 minutes was very impressive. Looking at this my impression is all the boys are responding to the coaching management, who are doing a terrific job. I'm not getting carried away because it was only Nantwich as the individual ability in all our youths was plain to see. It didn't take Dino long to spot this. The first team is struggling now, but the future looks bright if we can bring these lads through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollandspies Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I can’t recall watching a more one sided game than tonight. As BP said, a 12-0 win wouldn’t have flattered us. ahh, the exuberant of youth with our finishing, some fantastic goalkeeping and just some sheer bad luck..... 11 Williams was my MOM amongst many strong performances all around him. DC impressed me. Passive, respectful but certainly ‘on it’. Our boys are in good hands, they worked hard for him from min 1-90. Credit must go to Nantwich for their resilience and attitude - both team and staff. £3 well spent tonight for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Very strong team that last night, expected 6 or 7-0 tbh. Not seen any of it but know a lot of the names via my son. Recently been very happy to see Emerson, McHale, McKinney etc all involved. Think of Stott and Hamer as established first teamers now!! Progress of Jack Williams seems to have slown down, but not concerned as he probably isn't even 17 yet!! Shoutout to Kielan Adams jus so you don't feel left out Some potentially very bright futures in the set up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that it’s rare if more than one or two make it to the first team. The drop out rate from most clubs’ Academy set ups has, sadly, always been high. There have been exceptions (class of ‘92j but they were properly schooled at Boundary Park juniors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for their superb goalkeeper (who have recommended we sign even though ours is very good) it would have been a cricket score Monty. I think Adam's is too old for the youth team, but would probably struggle to displace these two excellent strikers anyway. William's is an old fashioned left winger very quick and tricky, but like many wide men relies on the ball to his feet, if he gets the service he will deliver. Morais is the ideal person to take him under his wing (no pun intended). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what happens to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
