Ronnie mcgrath got a similiar contract also but seems to have been injured alot this season

**tetsujin1979** · 19/02/2023, 9:26 AM

McGrath started yesterday for their U21 side

**tetsujin1979** · 25/02/2023, 6:20 PM

Ali Reghba tried to get his release from Belouizdad a few weeks ago, but all they'd offer him was a loan deal

Brighton continue to be the PDL team to watch for Irish supporters - on Monday, they lost 3-2 to West Ham, with Mark O'Mahony nabbing his first goal for them, along with an assist. Leigh Kavanagh, Matt Everitt and Jamie Mullins all played also, while Killian Cahill was an unused sub. Armstron Okoflex played the second half for the Hammers: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...1-v-albion-u21

Was wondering how Deji Sotona we getting on for Burnley since the transfer in January.
He was named as a sub against Wigan two weeks ago

Came on the second half, got booked on 65 minutes, and sent off for a second booking 20 minutes later

**Eirambler** · 04/03/2023, 10:02 AM

He seemed to make no impact at all at Kilmarnock which, with the best will in the world, isn't exactly a great sign for his prospects.

Is David Odomusu still eligible for under-21 level? Wouldn't exactly fill you with confidence either, but another option for a spot in the squad which is surprisingly lacking in quality.

No, too old now (born 2001). For the upcoming 21s campaign you have to have been born on or after 1 January 2002 to be eligable

Franco Umeh scored on his debut for Palace's U21 side against Blackburn earlier. Fionn Mooney also scored, assisted by Tayo Adaramola, for Palace, and Zak Gilsenan started for Blackburn
Umeh has also trained with the Palace senior team this week

**tetsujin1979** · 12/04/2023, 1:39 PM

Fair play to him he seemed to be struggling to make an impact up to this Easton, I actually thought he had been released at the end of last season. He has seen very little action for us underage and this season was his last under 19s

**tetsujin1979** · 16/04/2023, 10:39 AM

Jack Henry Francis came off the bench for Arsenal's U21s yesterday, that's his first appearance since getting injured in January.
Got an assist, and was booked in a 3-3 draw

21s are short of potential midfielders so hopefully he can push on. I wonder when his contract expires at arsenal. Will be 20 early next season so important summer for him

**JR89** · 16/04/2023, 1:36 PM

Signed his first pro contract in October 2021 so would assume it's up next summer.

**samhaydenjr** · 20/04/2023, 2:08 AM

Couple of goalscorers over the weekend:

Armstrong Oko-Flex scored West Ham's third in a 3-3 draw with Crystal Palace on Monday - Tayo Adamarola played the full 90 for the Eagles, Sean Grehan was a half-time sub and Franco Umeh-Chibueze came on in injury time: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...ham-united-u21

Jamie Mullins opened the scoring for Brighton against Arsenal, a game that also ended in a 3-3 draw. As noted earlier Jack Henry-Francis came on in the second half for the Gunners, while Leigh Kavanagh and Matt Everitt were unused subs for the Seagulls. Also, one of Brighton's second-half subs (and a goalscorer for them in recent weeks) was a lad called Joshua Duffus - could he be related to Irish underage internationals Courtney and Tyrone? If so, is he eligible and are the FAI keeping an eye on his progress? https://www.premierleague.com/match/...1-v-albion-u21

**Eirambler** · 20/04/2023, 6:13 AM

Surprised that Matt Everitt is still at Brighton. His career seems to have completely stalled after a promising start. It looks like his contract is up this summer, so he'll probably be moving on at that point.

**tetsujin1979** · 28/04/2023, 11:13 PM

Killian Cahill, Leigh Kavanagh, and Andrew Moran started for Brighton against Chelsea in the PL2 earlier, with Jamie Mullins and Mark O'Mahony named as substitutes
Moran scored twice, and O'Mahony came off the bench to score, in a 4-1 win for Brighton
Game is on YouTube
Moran's goals are at 57:37 and 1:23:15 - the second goal in particular is worth watching - and O'Mahony's is at 1:45:35

That's 12 for the season in all comps for Moran... from midfield - really looking promising. And O'Mahony isn't doing too bad - four goals in nine appearances since he transferred

Also, Zak GIlsenan was credited with an assist for Blackburn against Palace: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...urn-rovers-u21

**Eirambler** · 02/05/2023, 6:18 AM

Moran has been linked to a few Championship clubs recently for a potential loan next season - Blackburn, Stoke and Swansea were the teams mentioned. Swansea might suit him best of those in terms of playing style and they don't run a particularly big squad so he should get game time. Lack of physicality is probably his main issue so the Championship could be the making of him, but could also have the opposite effect especially with the rate of manager turnover in that division.

**tetsujin1979** · 05/05/2023, 10:14 AM

Sean Grehan, Fionn Mooney, and Tayo Adaramola all started for Crystal Palace's U21s as they beat Valencia on penalties in the semi finals of the Premier League International Cup. Franco Umeh came on for Mooney, and scored in the shoot out. Palace will face Ajax in the final
