Aaron Drinan back on the scoring trail in Ipswich's 5-0 win over Millwall, Barry Cotter also featured - https://www.itfc.co.uk/news/2019/jan...llwall-report/
Olamide Shodipo made a welcome return from injury for QPR against Colchester: https://www.qpr.co.uk/fixtures/under...3s-v-qpr-u23s/
Brighton are streaming their Premier League International Cup game against Bayern on their youtube channel, kick off at 7pm: https://www.youtube.com/user/officialbhafc
Warren O'Hora starts, Connolly is still injured, and Molumby is presumably not match fit
anyone know anything about the club in Slovakia Ronan from wolves joined?
Simon Power off the mark for Dordrecht in his first start - and it's against Ajax too!
(Jong Ajax, but still)
Edit - hit the woodwork too, and had a great chance from a typical solo run. 3-3 now into the final stages.
Really good move by him. It might not be the best standard but it's definitely a strong technical standard for young players, pitting yourself against the Ajax academy etc. You would hope it has the first team manager's fingerprints on it too given that Farke is off the Germany and Dortmund manager conveyor belt.Quote:

Adam Idah on the scoresheet for Norwich. Unfortunately they shipped six goals against West Brom: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...ch-v-west-brom
Aaron Bolger has signed for Cardiff on loan until the end of the season from Shamrock Rovers. I'm assuming he's gone into their under 23 squad. He will link up with Caoimhin Fowler there.
Interesting. That rovers midfield was getting top heavy. I assume rovers will want a fee for him when he leaves for real?Quote:

Another welcome return from injury - this time Tyreke Wilson for Man City against a Liverpool team that contained Corey Whelan and Glen McAuley https://www.premierleague.com/match/...ool-v-man-city
Olamide Shodipo continues his comeback from injury - hit a cross that led to one of QPR's goals in a loss to Charlton: https://www.qpr.co.uk/fixtures/under...athletic-u23s/
Pretty sure this is a mistake about Norwich City forward Anthony Spyrou on premierleague.com: https://www.premierleague.com/news/984085#!
Spyrou is from Essex, and can't find any reference to him being Irish, or that he's declared for IrelandQuote:
Anthony Spyrou (Norwich City)
The 19-year-old Irish forward struck twice last month, including the winner in the Division 2 match against Aston Villa.
Probably mixing him up with Idah.
Just the one Irish scorer in the Premier league Cup, as Tyriek Wright scored Villa's goal in a 2-1 defeat to Derby - only turned 17 in September, so could be one to watch: https://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/2019/02/...-vs-u23-report
Is he growing much I wonder? I thought he looked a lovely player for our 17s but one that I felt needed that development. Playing beside Idah probably didn't help my impression of him in that regard though.
Wow. Big congrats to Ryan. Don't know who they have left out but there's enough recognisable names in there to assume not many.
Jayson Molumby's return, mentioned on his own thread, is very good news
Meanwhile Jonathan Afolabi scored again for Southampton's U23s against Fulham - that's his fourth in five games, which is close to the type of scoring form that propelled Michael Obafemi into the first team earlier in the season. Will Smallbone got Southampton's other goal while Will Ferry got the assist for Afolabi's goal. In total six(!) Irish players featured: Afolabi, Smallbone, Ferry, Aaron O'Driscoll, Thomas O'Connor and a late cameo from Kameron Ledwidge: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...mpton-v-fulham
Elsewhere Rowan Roache came on as a late sub for Derby U23s: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...cester-v-derby
The highlights from the Southampton - Fulham game are in the Saint's YouTube channel
Two cracking finishes, although the second one is lucky
The full game is also available if you really want to watch it: https://youtu.be/uxMU9USZ9ts
Simon Power given his own banner now by Dordrecht fans, so fair to say he's made a good impression there already.

They lost 4-1 to Sparta Rotterdam last night - ex Real Madrid player Royston Drenthe was among the scorers. He quit playing three years ago to concentrate on rap, but came out of retirement this season.
