    Donal McDermott

    Man City's Irish winger, on loan at Chesterfield earlier in the season, linked with another loan move to Scunthorpe: http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news...cle219531.html

    He played well at the Spireites, and at 20 he needs experience at a higher level. While he's been away, fellow academy graduate Vladimir Weiss has made the step up to the senior squad, and McDermott will probably compete with him for a spot on the bench by the end of the season.

    Saw him play a few times for the U19s, can play out wide on the left, or through the middle. Very slight build, but lots of pace and has a fierce shot on him.

    Weiss is already a first pick on the Slovakian senior team and a world star in the making so I'd say its more likely he moves onto the Man city team than gets replaced on the bench.

    McDermott is left sided, and Weiss is right sided AFAIK
    They both played in the same academy side, so it could come down to what player in what position gets injured to see which of the two of them progress to the seniors.

    All the more amazing then that he's been ignored by Goon Givens.

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
