Moran and O’Mahony both do well for the first goal with O’Mahony initially winning the ball and then getting a nice flick for the assist.

Killian Cahill doesn’t have his best game, with the injury to Tiernan Brooks - he’s probably second choice after Keeley for our 21s campaign starting next month.

Off the bench, Cian Coleman involved for Leeds and Jamie Mullins for Brighton

Kone Doherty with a goal and assist for Liverpool 18s today he will be in the 21s this season at Liverpool. Was injured basically all last season after the world Cup, went to the 17s qualifiers in March without playing for Liverpool for months and was injured ahain and only came back in preseason. Had a super first season at Liverpool until his injuries

Still 17, playing and scoring EPL2. O'Mahony scored for Brighton tonight too, still 18. Counted eleven of our players getting minutes, most starting across the nine PL2 games earlier. Callum Kavanagh got the last fifteen for Middlesbrough & Coventry played 90 for West Ham, Emmanuel Adegboyega played 90 again for Norwich after his recent move over, among the more notable mentions.

Kavanagh has shown he's already too good for U21 football. Boro should really look at a loan abroad rather than sending Kavanagh back to somewhere like League 2.

**Eirambler** · 19/08/2023, 8:00 AM

Kavanagh seems to be one player who is particularly struggling to make the jump from development football to the senior game. His stats at Under 18 and PL2 are excellent, then he's only at three goals in 31 games down in League 2. Just shows again how difficult it can be to make that jump. I wouldn't mind seeing him going to the SPL for a season, it's less physical than League 2. A good loan to a St Johnstone or Livingston type of club could really help him kick on.

Ryan Cassidy signed for Tolka Rovers this week. Just over 12 months after leaving Watford.

He was absolutely brutal at Bohs last season.

Crikey, missed that - I skipped over the Liverpool result because I thought we had nobody in their U21s, forgetting about Kone-Doherty. Fair play, only turned 17 over the summer and already scoring for the U21s - definitely one to watch over the next couple of years.
