Spurs under 21, under 18 Leagues and other youth news

[rabbikeane]

Apparently Steffan Freund and Paul Brush have taking over the U21's now

Cool, hope Freund is happy with that position.
Think he has a lot to give us and our youth development.

They were in charge for the last game on Tuesday too !

Freund was involved with a lot of the German youth teams so a good pedigree if this is his long term post, Brush has been with Spurs youth set up for a year or two now, but before that AM at Lincoln etc so not sure how deep his pedigree really is (although a top talent at West Ham in his youth but fell out of favour a couple of years later)

Tottenham Hotspur ‏@SpursOfficial Our U18 game away to Chelsea tomorrow has been postponed. We'll keep you updated on the rearranged date.

I assume another waterlogged pitch - but that's not confirmed

Stoke 2 - 0 Spurs.

Bollocks!

Goal to Stoke. Breakaway as we pushed forward, Joel Taylor carried the ball 30 yards before curling home from the edge of the box. 0-2, 90m.

Game over now I think

Edit : Confirmed FT 0-2

Too weak line up today

It looks like only McEvoy and Velkjovic survive from last season's great team, and the replacements are last season's U-21 squad players?

I'd probably add Miles to that list (full line ups http://www.myfootballfacts.com/TottenhamHotspurReservesAcademy2012-13.html ) , and add that a number of them were not considered for the u21's and played for the u19's with a few more (like Ward) playing neither u19 or u21 football last season. A lot of 18 year olds involved in the Spurs side too.

Very different from last season's side that was based around the great 1991/1992 born players intake

Stewart played quite a lot for the U21's last year didn't he ? Or am I thinking of the younger group (I know a couple of years ago he was in the Next Gen U19 group).

Must admit that was my first thoughts, but if you look at the lineups on the link I posted, he played maybe half a dozen times in the u21 league - mostly the u21 defence was Fredericks Hall Veljkovic, Fryers.

 

[Mouse!]

Fredericks straight into the team for Millwall's game against Ipswich.

Obika on the bench for Brighton.

Carroll starts for QPR.

Pritchard, Hall and Mason start for Swindon.

Well his League 1 goal scoring record is outstanding so far. A goal every 5 minutes.
