We had so many of the youngsters take part this season, anyone have thoughts on who will make a serious claim when we eventually get back started.
At the back I wonder if Dylan Crowe or Corrie Ndaba will finally find their way through, or if Barry Cotter will push on. I'm doubtful to be honest, they would all probably have benefited from a League Two loan last year.
Dobra must be the most likely further up the pitch, hopefully El Mizouni too (it's a shame his Cambridge loan was cut short with injury, he was doing well there by all accounts), and it would be great to see Simpson burst onto the scene, Wickham style.
I can't work out whether we are blessed with a new generation of talented youngsters or not! |  |

McGavin, Dobra and Lankester are the three I am hoping make an impact this season |  |

I think and hope we will see a lot more of Tyreece Simpson next season. |  | | |

Lankester is the one Alan Lee was most excited about a couple of years ago. It is a shame he got injured. Without the injuries I would have had high hopes of him, Bishop and Dozzell.
The other issue is how they are brought through. A team needs to playing a formation that suits the players and that has been lacking too often too. |  |

I would say Lankester is an established first team player. He already proved himself in the champ, and had his break through season. We are just awaiting his comeback from injury. [Post edited 12 Jun 2020 21:05]

Don’t forget Nydam....not as young as those you mention, but a talent halted by injury last season. He could solve our left back problem. |  |

Hardly. He made an initial impact - but didn't play many games. I am really looking forward to seeing him again though. |  |

He's a nailed on first teamer. Was one of the first names on the team sheet when he got injured.
Proved he could handle the champ.
He's had his breakthrough season. | |

I remember Klug saying once to my old man that you don’t really know if an Academy player is going to “make it” until he’s started at least 100 games.
Plenty have come into the team hot only to fizzle away unceremoniously.
Lankester could be in the Ambrose tier, or he could be in the Carson tier - he still has it all to prove. [Post edited 14 Jun 2020 13:43]

Exactly this. He has only played 11 times, and to follow that with being out for a season and a half, means he is a prospect right now and could still go either way.
Fingers crossed he can come back and give us some better attacking options. |  |

He's in the Ambrose tier, for sure.
Carson never looked that good. | |

He's proved he is good enough. Injury is the only issue with that lad, his talent is not in doubt. | |

Fact is we don’t know yet, people would have been saying the same about Bishop but look at the state of his career.
Carson burst into the scene and did something silly like four goals in seven games, or similar. He looked quite the prospect when he burst in to the scene but he didn’t live a very professional existence and as his body developed he lost his little burst of pace.
There are a myriad of factors which go into if a player does or doesn’t “make it” some of which have nothing to do with the player himself.
There are players who weren’t expected to make the grade who have and there are those tipped for stardom who never come close to hitting the heights. You can’t tell, which Jack will be after 11 games, all you can say is that he’s a great prospect with great natural ability.
His driving instructor tells me he was a lovely lad too. | | | |

Bishops talent is undoubted, his career is blighted by injuries.
Carson was purely over rated.
I agree that injuries put a question mark on Lanckester, but his talent is beyond doubt. He has had his breakthrough season in that respect. | |

11 games is not really 'established', it's in the 'encouraging' bracket.

It’s beyond injuries, as I say there’s a myriad of factors that go into if a player does or doesn’t “make it” and some of those are out of the players control.
It’s not as binary and simple as you make out, nothing is certain. | | | |

Massive but. His injury record is a huge concern.
11 games is also nothing. Just look at the likes of Bowditch and Billy Clarke both of whom started like a whirlwind and then vanished. | |

El Mizouni for me, he went to L2 and first taste of men's football and took to it straight away.
That is the intangible that is hardest to work out, and we've had a glimpse of it |  |

How was Carson purely overrated?
He was a star for the youth team, massively sought after and a huge coup to get him, made a flying start to career, international debut etc. All this happened whilst he was still a teenager.
That's not being over rated, that is making a massive impact as a kid. | |

But he also only lasted a few games before getting crocked. A bit harsh may be but why do so many of our youngsters appear to be made of glass? | |
