    Lesta V Chavs should be a decent game later. Fat frank’s expensively assembled team have been stuttering, reckon they should play their yoot tonight.

    Reckon their youngsters are better than Lesta’s.

    The only problem is we're going to get relegated and they will buy man united

    Hard to disagree, Barnes is doing well for Leicester but Mount is equally as good, probably better.

    Reece James also starting to look the real deal.

    Mount is a class act. Would put him above any of the young Lesta players tbh.

    Yeah he’s up there with the best youngsters. Saka, Mount, Foden, Greenwood, Lamptey.

    England have a bright future.

    At last, some appreciation of Mason Mount. He is a fine player. Anyone who thinks he's favoured is an absolute ****tard.

    Might be able to add Smith Rowe to that list soon. Lad has got bags of talent.

    Harvey Barnes is decent enough for Lesta. But there’s a crop of English youngsters who I think are better than him.

    Foden's the real standout of England's youngsters I think.

    Guy oozes way too much technique, skill and vision for someone only 20 years old. Think he's got the minerals to become a world class player.

    Dunno mate. Were not a very confident team atm, so I'd take a draw tbh. We need a win really though.

    Same goes for Reece James imo. A real talent.

    Yeah I’d agree with that as well, he’s a stunning player and seems to have the right attitude as well.

    Yeah I said to @BobbyD the other day on our board I think he's class.

    Clubs finally seem to be putting emphasis on youth development again after so many years of just buying in young talent and I think it'll pay dividends in time to come. Exciting time for English football.

    It’s about time you lot started getting some good youngsters through as well, at one point it seemed like you just ignored youth altogether.

    I suspect that Lampard gets flashbacks to this quite regularly:

    Yeah he’s a quality player, I still don’t think he’s a fullback though, albeit he can defo player there, for me he’s a midfield player, based on what I saw of him at Wigan where he was virtually a one man team at times.

    Ben Godfrey looks a great young buy for us, been playing out of position at LB, when he’s a CB, but the lad has got some engine on him and is extremely quick for a 6ft CB.

    Didn't realise there was PL games tonight. At least none of you lot will watch us lose to Shrewsbury.
