I liked the look of Donacien at the back. He seemed to have a lot of maturity for his age. Maybe someone to include on the bench towards the end of the season if we're safe.

Not this season but there are two or three who may be knocking on the door next season - the future looks good if this crop can continue to develop- of last nights team Carruthers is perhaps already knocking on the door but donacien, Robinson and grealish look great prospects .

Burke and Drennan will be ahead of Robinson but no doubt Robinson is a real prospect. He's impressed me every time i've seen him.

Remember, these are the U19s and there's a few in the U21 group that are knocking on the first team door too. Like Johnson, Siegrist, Williams etc. And there's some that weren't playing last night like Jordan Graham, who are very promising.

If given went would you have faith in siegrist as a number 2 maz or do you think he needs a bit longer?

I'd rather we had one experienced keeper on the books as a safety valve if/when Given goes, then loan Siegrist out or have him compete directly with this experienced keeper.

Technically I have no doubts Siegrist could cope but its tough for young keepers to recover after making mistakes. And mistakes are inevitable.

I don't see any harm in including one or two in the matchday squad if and when we're safe. Carruthers and Burke have been on the bench a few times already, Burke has even got on the pitch. Besides, it'll give them the incentive to push on once they've tasted it.

Fair point clamps, I must admit i was impressed with the cameo from Carruthers last season and he looked confident and prepared to take players on - surprised he hasn't been given a chance so far, as he seems to provide width and pace too.
