The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

I didn’t see a great deal of it, because of a combination of a doctor’s appointment and the dodgy stream. His penalty was poor, but that happens to the best of players at times and in one of the bits I did manage to see in the second half, the commentator was talking about how he and Ryan Kavanagh were winning the midfield battle. We played some quite nice stuff in the first twenty minutes or so, but Bristol City had some experienced players in their side and seemed physically stronger than us.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

the Bristol site seemed to say that their keeper nhad a good game, and our keeper handed them 2 goals from mistakes, and we missed a penalty, so probably a better performance than the scoreline suggests

It’s being reported on Twitter that Jai Semenyo has signed a contract extension until 2024 with City, well done to all concerned - wouldn’t be surprised to see him play some Championship football before the end of the season if safety is confirmed in the next few weeks.

I think he's been one of the most impressive players in the u23s since he's come in so I am happy with his contract and also agree he will see some game-time soon.

Also, I wonder if he will eventually push up and play more of an attacking role / traditional wingers role.. he seems a bit wasted at times playing as a wing back.

You get the feeling he could play further forward, but, with Ng seemingly becoming seen as a central defender, there’s definitely a vacancy to be filled at right back/wing back next season.

u18s at Charlton today - 1.00 kick off.

Would be good to get back to winning ways (the first half of the season for u18s and u23s seems a long time ago) but tough fixture.

Semenyo signs a new deal

Cardiff City youngster Jai Semenyo has signed a long-term deal with the club.

The right-back, who joined the club last summer from non-League, made his debut for the Bluebirds in the final few minutes of the FA Cup game against Liverpool back in January.

He has been one of the standout talents in the under-23s this season and is a player who has been earmarked to have further involvement in the first team next season.

The 18-year-old, who is the brother of Bristol City attack Antoine Semenyo, has penned a contract with the Bluebirds until 2024.

103 minutes apparently. Great to see James Waite scoring, so pleased he’s getting his chance in league football.

More on James Waite - it was an excellent goal and I'd like to think he would have been given the first team chance at City he deserved if he had been a couple of years younger and in the current group;-

Patten came off the bench at Edgar Street yesterday. First time he's had a positive impact from what I've seen. He helped us get further up the field and we got a lateish equaliser against York City.

Yes, good goal. It's going to be interesting to see how it goes for him. Rowberry going to Newport looks to have been a big stroke of luck for James, now he's got 18 months to establish himself. Rowberry has said he isn't in any rush with him, yesterday was his first start, but the impact he made should ensure more pitch time.

Great shame he didn't make it here, I always enjoyed watching him play. Best of luck to him.
