It seemed like you picked up a lot of players from lower division academies around the country and, y’know, they’re kids. Apart from adapting to new coaching and teammates, they’re adapting to new houses, new areas etc etc. Let them bed in. I don’t know all that much about your current youth facilities and staff but my impression is that you had quite a lot of work to do on that as well. Then you factor in the quirks between age groups. Our U21s were incredible last year but they’re all on loan or in the first team squad now and the new batch are significantly younger. They’ve lost a ton of games. That’s just what happens. In a couple of years time, if all your age groups are underperforming then I’d be asking questions. Until then you just have to be patient, unless there are people who know behind-the-scenes stuff and have concerns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Michael Mills with the winner in a 2-1 win. 15 years old, he’s been really impressive in the last month, scored a couple against the mackems Under 18s in November. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught the first half - really enjoyed it. Some very good performances but the best was Mills who is absolutely rapid (and very skillful). Was amazed to find out later that he's only 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any sign of any of our other Irish wunderkids breaking through (Heffernan, Murphy)? Also what happened to the winger linked from Milan - Kevin somoneorother?

Also what happened to the winger linked from Milan - Kevin somoneorother? Kevin Zefi went to Roma in the end, was talk of him switching allegiance to Albania a while back but he was in the Ireland U21 squad last month so assume he's sticking with Ireland for now at least. Not sure where Alex Murphy is at in the pecking order currently, seems to be on the fringe of first team squad but could be out on loan at some stage - not sure if we plan to use him as a LB or CB long term. Rory Finneran probably the most likely to really be top class but he's still a few years off yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
