Wolves Academy Thread

Another U21s defeat.. No wonder Jackett is thinking of completely over hauling it next season..
 
Does sounds like there will be quite a few released. And a chance for the u18s to push on

We are essentially using the U21 games to play the U18's though at the moment. 7 of them in the squad today.
 
I think we are slowly introducing them aren't we? So likes of Ronan, Bright (can't spell his last name), Upton have been involved mre often now. Wilson and Simpson went straight into 21s anyway really too.

We seem to putting a lot of players above their age group. Certainly since the turn of the year
 
Good thing really, as long as they can cope. (not won many games but equally not lost a lot either) In the long run should benefit those players and we may see a couple of decent players come through into the first team.

Haven't heard much about Torras, or Ortega for that matter? Neither seem to play very often
 
I don't think either of the Spanish kids of come close to matching their hype.
 
A bit like the two Brazilians we had then.
 
Ortega came on for the second half yesterday but yeah doesn't look like they'll cut it
 
U21's v Villa at Molineux tongith

Wonder if that is Zeli behind the forward?

We lost 1-0.
 
Seems like we lost 3-1 against Burnley in a behind closed doors friendly. Anyone have a Wolves-bias link/report?

Burnley clicky
 
U21s for Blackburn:

SQUAD: Flatt, Simpson, O’Hanlon, Evans, Hayden, Upton, Ismail, Kellermann, Wilson, Hunte, Graham, Matinyadze, Bills, Weeks, Bancessi, Ennis

Interesting how the official site considers Flatt to be a senior player -> Link

Who is Bills, never seen him mentioned before?
 
Rhys Bills
Goalkeeper

Rhys is a local boy from Cannock, who was first spotted whilst playing for Cannock and District Schoolboys, in a game v Wolverhampton.
He successfully completed a trial with us whilst an Under 16 and was soon offered a scholarship at the club.
Through working closely with Paul Clements we hope that he will develop into a successful senior goalkeeper at Wolves.
