    Also youngster Joshua Kayode came on for the last few minutes of Rotherham's senior team's clash with Man City's U-21s - as he was born in Lagos, can anybody confirm that he spent enough time in Ireland, before moving to The Millers, to qualify for us?

    Three Irish goalscorers in tonight's Professional Development League game between Birmingham and Coventry: Ronan Hale got off the mark for the season and Corey O'Keeffe got the other goal for the Blues, but they were well beaten as the Sky Blues notched up five, with Reece Ford among their scorers

    In U23 news from tonight, Daniel Mandroiu scored for Brighton in a 4-2 victory over Fulham; 17-year old Tyreke Wilson started for Man City against Arsenal, set up a goal but then got sent off after getting involved into a fracas with Jack Wilshere; Jonathan Afolabi was joined in Southampton's U23 squad by Will Smallbone and Thomas O'Connor, however they went down to a 3-0 defeat to Anthony Breslin's Wolves.

    Breslin and rainey who also played seem to have been at wolves for years but don't seem to be involved much for us at 21 level. Hard to see them making the breakthrough at wolves with all the money they spent. Kavanagh got an og last night really hope he can get a move somewhere it all looked so promising for him a few years ago

    Some U23 league news: Ryan Manning seems to have been demoted from QPR's first team but did, at least, score a stunning winner, apparently: https://www.qpr.co.uk/fixtures/under...barnsley-u23s/

    Josh Barrett scored for Reading against Brighton, who had Dessie Hutchinson and Daniel Mandroiu as starters, with Aaron Connolly coming on as sub: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...hton-v-reading

    Jonathan Afolabi, Thomas O'Connor and Will Smallbone all featured for Southampton as they last 1-0 to Blackburn: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...on-v-blackburn

    And one more bit of underage news - Bournemouth keeper Mark Travers, who has been included in our U-19 squad for an upcoming friendly against the Czech Republic, recently made his debut for Weymouth FC, where he is on loan. You wouldn't have thought this would have been a particularly noteworthy event, a young goalkeeper starting a loan spell at a non-league club...and then he did this:

    The reaction of the players of the conceding team is worth a watch......

    How will that go down with the goalkeeping Union......

    It was a great strike of a ball.....

    It was also unique to watch the whole attacking team turn around and race toward their own goal in celebration

    Quick Checkatrade update from tonight:

    Aaron Connolly got another game against senior opposition, playing 70 minutes as Brighton lost to MK Dons. Dessie Hutchinson, Daniel Mandroiu and Rian O'Sullivan also played: https://www.mkdons.com/matches/fixtu...-on-29-aug-17/

    Read that Leicester side coughed up 21 efforts on their goal last night while managing none on their opponents, real man & boys mismatch.

    I'm sure somebody mentioned something about this already somewhere but it's just been posted on RTE's website: Conor Masterson has been named in Liverpool's squad for the Champions League: https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2017...lsea-cl-squad/. Now they refer to the squad as a 25-man squad but on the UEFA site, 32 players are listed: http://www.uefa.com/uefachampionslea...889/index.html

    He's in the B-list, players under 23 that can be called into the main squad. But he should play in the UEFA Youth League

    Ah, thanks for clearing that up - RTE made it sound like he was only a daring decision by Klopp or a minor injury crisis away from a place on the bench vs Maribor. Well hopefully he can do well in the Youth League and continue his progress

    Speedster Khius Metz seemed to have dropped off the radar somewhat a little while back, having been sent to Altrincham on "work experience loan" last season. He's back with Burnley U23s now and scored his second in two games as they lost to Watford. Also, Nottingham Forest U23s put five past Colchester and Gerry McDonagh got two making it five in four games for him: https://twitter.com/GerryMcDonagh64/...54907417321478

    Interesting that McDonagh hasn't gone out on a loan yet, unless they have designs for the first team for him. He only got the one league goal in 13 games for Cambridge in the second half of last season.

    Hopefully they do - if he keeps up his current form for the U-23s over the next few months, surely Forest will have a look at him. Wouldn't worry about the stats for Cambridge as he probably took time to settle in late in the season - between that and his longer stint at Wrexham at least he got pretty much an entire season of first-team football under his belt, knocking in half-a-dozen goals
