Good news. Hopefully get a run of games!!
Good to see.
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.
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.
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?
Good news, great that the club are continuing to back younger players
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 🤔
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.
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.
Logic indicates you want to compare one of your youngsters lack of first team experience compared to others yet want to ignore Keiffer Moore, a classic example of a late developer - the point being players develop at different rates.
Logic would also indicate both Ralls and Ledley had managers willing to play young players; something Colwill would not have had around age 17-18 until McCarthy arrived.
Logic would also indicate it's a bit silly to expect an inexperienced player, with no loan stints under his belt to come in and "tear it up".
He has shown progress in a team being rebuilt and is around the stage of his development you'd expect.
He was a handful against Bristol . Good close control and a real willing to push forward.
It was only one game , lets hope there are many many more.
Colwill added a bit more class, strength and guile to our midfield when he came on against Bristol. Unusually for us in that area of the pitch he seemed to know what he was doing. Time for a few starts for him I reckon.
