https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/video/u21-highlights-saints-5-2-fulham Dom and J-Rob linking up well. Ballard's third is the pick.
Yeah, he seems to have leapfrogged Ballard in the pecking order for first team chances. He does look very good TBF.
If he was any good he would’ve left like all the other youngsters recently. Hopefully he is a bit more of a late developer
Really hope we get Robinson & Ballard firing as the heart of our team next season. Would honestly rather see us finish 10th with our talented youngsters and build on that for a promotion the season or 2 after and have players we are proud of like we had in Lallana, Shaw, Chambers & Ward Prowse etc etc when we did it all those years ago!!
Southampton’s Under-21s will travel to face Crystal Palace in the Premier League 2 play-off semi-finals. After beating Leicester in a thrilling round of 16 tie, Saints' youngsters then dispatched second place finishers Fulham 5-2 at the quarter-final stage. Dom Ballard hit a hat-trick on his return from loan, with further goals from Joachim Kayi Sanda and Princewill Ehibhatiomhan to book the place in the final four of the play-offs. Calum McFarlane's side will travel to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace, who finished 6th in the regular season and advanced to the semi-final with a dominant 6-0 win over Chelsea. The fixture will take place on Monday 12th May, with a 7pm kick-off.
Aston Villa U18's beat Leicester City U18's 1 - 0. Knocked our U18's off the top of the table in to 2nd.
They all look pretty good. Robinson is a class above. Merry looked very good coming back from injury - until he got injured. Abu just scored a cracker! Oh, but I cannot see Larios ever making it in senior football. Too small.
