Good to see.

Re: Colwill signs new contract

Agreed. I think he needs to start. I think Bacuna is limited in the role he is expected to play and we need more flair up top.

Good stuff.

The senior Wales set up clearly see something there too.

Re: Colwill signs new contract

I haven't seen much of him and from the little I have seen, I don't understand what all the fuss is about

But then I did think Ryan Wintle would be our best midfielder this season so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about.

I definitely don't know what I'm talking about.

I'm all for giving our youngsters a chance though.

Re: Colwill signs new contract

Good news. Didn't think he was great against Millwall, but he looked the part against the wurzels when he came on - it'll be interesting to see how he does for Wales (I can see him starting against Finland).

You don't know what the fuss is about a kid who looks composted on the ball and isn't scared to be in the mix making runs with the ball etc? When comparing that to the older heads who treat the ball like its going to transform into a death ball with killer spikes unless they get rid of it quick enough?

Re: Colwill signs new contract

Good news, great that the club are continuing to back younger players

[Sunnysideup]

Re: Colwill signs new contract

I think it’s more a case of the club protecting their assets
Giving the stand out youngsters longer deals will ensure bigger fees when clubs are sniffing transfer deals 🤔

He’s 19. The way people talk you’d think he was 16.

At 18 Ralls was playing regularly in the Championship. Ledley was doing the same at 17.

Obviously hope he goes in to tear it up but he needs to start now.

Joe Ralls had 5 starts and 5 appearances off the bench in Championship at age of 18. He wasn't playing regularly until aged 20/21 and wasn't doing it for City until aged 21/22.

Think you're right about Ledley who had 20 starts in 2004–05.

But players develop at different ages. All about what their peak is and how long they can sustain it rather than who reaches it first...our understanding is going to be so warped by England producing genuine superstars.

Logic would indicate that based upon your view, you feel Keiffer Moore should have given up years ago as he'd not broken through at age 19?

Re: Colwill signs new contract

The lad needs to gain experience to supplement what we have seen of him so far,
critically that means fans and manager excepting up and down in his performances.

Unless I’m mistaken we’re talking about Colwill becoming a really top player. With full respect to Kieffer, I’m not sure he fits into that bracket.
