Commentators said it was O'Driscoll. Watched the first half on livestream on YouTube. Was too late here to watch the second half - enjoyed it more than Sunday's game!

Agree with you on him being a prospect.

Klarer - O’Driscoll

I always get players confused from a distance, especially if their position and short hand descriptions are similar.
Steve Davis & JWP was a common one.

ps - not suggesting you’re confused Romsey, by replying to you. Just two names have been suggested for Loadings...earlier question.

Has klarer had a stroke.
 
Thought Alfie Jones & Tom O’Conner we’re both very good. Dan N’Lundulu has some nice runs & touches going forward. Very good all round performance & got the job done but as previously posted, “very Saints” in last 10mins! Great celebrations. Very pleased for all of them; and hopefully us.

Who from our youth teams looks closest to being called in as youth support by Ralph it his plans to backfill squad spaces with young players go ahead (although shifting everyone needed to make that happen probably takes more than one summer)

Young central defenders always seem a gamble
Ramsay was used last year but is he really ready to potentially cover a long absence at right back? Similar question on Vokins

I get the feeling some on here watch the academy games so might have more of an idea ...

And for those that do were the elevations of Valery, Slattery and Obafemi expected? The first two are names I had heard before and expected for a while but not the last

Ramsay and Vokins need more senior experience on loan somewhere IMO.

Both have impressed me but are still very raw and all the noises are that we will sign an experienced RB to challenge Valery and that Matty will stay and challenge Bertie.

Obafemi pretty much leap frogged the u23s Which is why he might of snuck under the radar a bit.

Klarer is a popular choice on this board, but as you said in your post, it’s difficult for centre backs to make that step up

Will Ferry(academy player of the year) looks the most likely. He’s hardly played in the u23s yet, but looks superb technically, physically he’s not going to have an issue like Hesketh & Sims have suffered either.
If he gets off to a decent start in the u23s then he may well be getting a chance in the FA Cup.
