Is a nice mention in The Guardian enough to warrant starting a thread on a talented under 19?
He sounds very promising.

Kaelan feels like a variation of the Irish name Caolán too. However: "An Academy of Football player since he was five-years-old, Casey cites Declan Rice as his footballing inspiration for the manner in which he graduated from Chadwell Heath, and admits to hoping to replicate his journey."

Maybe a surprise that he's not in the Under 19 squad if he's that highly rated? There are plenty of other of other 2004 born players in there. Or maybe he's hedging is bets a bit by just playing Under 18s which is non-competitive and doesn't commit him to us in any way.

He probably just wasn’t selected, plenty of talented MFs in the u19 group where at u18 he only has to compete with 2004 born players.

They're only friendlies as well, could be taking a look at the other players in the squad. The qualifiers are in November

Yeah this is just a training camp similar to the ones he's already been involved with. Finn Benoa, Oisin Gallagher, and Harry Vaughan are all midfielders and are 3 of the 9 guys making their first appearance with the U19s.

Vaughan and Benoa have first team experience and Gallagher is in match day squads for Lincoln. Along with McCormack whose got first team experience with Pats it's good to see lads making squads who are in or around the first team at their clubs.

Really no point getting excited in young English born talent at this stage of their career. We've been here too many times before.

Hope the lad does well and sticks with us though.
