scary seeing some of those names in the PL now
They were playing for the 21s last season while a lot of those lads were with the 18s.would have assumed Trey would be ahead of them so maybe they’re with the u18s doing whatever they’re doing
They were playing for the 21s last season while a lot of those lads were with the 18s.
I reckon they're LW and RW backups for the main team today which is great to see.
Trey seems to want to go so I think is with the rejects.
We have a young fullback called Jones, can't mind his 1st name - womder if he's maybe with the 1st team instead of pembeleYou must log in or register to see images
Pembele likely with the first team to play one half at full back because we’re obviously light on them
Hume, Huggins, pembele and one more
My thoughts exactly and even more so for Huggins who I really like.Yeah. At that time, we shelled out , what was seen as big money for him. Compared to other deals done etc. He has played little due to injury, but similar to Huggins, they rate him so much. If he is fit enough, and shows match fitness he will get a really good look I think. Obviously, if little injuries creep in due to inactive time, they may have to loan to build up match fitness etc. But as I said, I'd be surprised due to how how have highly he is rated.
Tremendous news, that's Neil and Rigg signing new deals for sure. Over the moon. Roll on ShieldsA bit on why we didn't sign Henderson

...Sunderland’s recruitment team were aware of Henderson’s likely availability at the start of the summer, and have been monitoring his situation throughout the last couple of months.
However, with Habib Diarra and Noah Sadiki already having been recruited to strengthen the central-midfield ranks, the Black Cats hierarchy decided against offering Henderson what would have been an emotional return to his hometown.
The presence of Dan Neil and Chris Rigg in Sunderland’s midfield mix was also a factor, with Sunderland officials not wanting to hamper the development of two of their most promising young players.
Sunderland's sporting director, Kristjaan Speakman, was aware of the emotional pull behind bringing Henderson back to the Stadium of Light, and the veteran midfielder's experience and leadership qualities would potentially have offered something in a squad that, on the whole, remains extremely young.
However, senior sources claim there was a determination to ensure 'heart did not rule head', with Speakman having been involved in the unsuccessful decision to offer Jermain Defoe a second spell as a Sunderland player.
In the end, it was decided that Sunderland should look to the future rather than the past, hence the move for alternative, much younger central-midfield targets.
Henderson was made aware of his boyhood club's decision, and having turned down a series of alternative offers including a firm approach from Porto, the North-Easterner has opted to join Brentford, who finished in tenth position in the Premier League next season....
Probably only 3 that will play any premier league football from here on. Five if we’re lucky.You must log in or register to see media

Or pembele isn't playing at all and close to a moveActually maybe Huggins isn't fit, 2 left backs missing from the reserve teams. So Jenson Jones and Bainbridge might play
Very good championship gk, I don't think he's good enough for the PL. Doesn't command his box at all, good shot stopper thoWonder what it would cost to get the Stoke keeper.. think he’s an excellent goalie
Or, Triantis steps forward?The sixth spot is always going to be tricky. It’s possible that the thinking is that Browne can fill that spot or that Jones can. A bit risky but there may have to be some compromises.
Neil's been away with Australia so might have an extended break. Just a guess like.Also... Geragusian and Marcus Neill with the main team?
Aye potentially, hoping one of them is at least.Neil's been away with Australia so might have an extended break. Just a guess like.
Probably refused to play, againOr pembele isn't playing at all and close to a move
Find out soon enough
Same as pattoVery good championship gk, I don't think he's good enough for the PL. Doesn't command his box at all, good shot stopper tho
That the rumour like? Would be bad newsMassive shame if ovunsuyi wants away, we’d give him a shot before Liverpool. Can’t keep them all though
