Ah that's a shame. I liked what I saw of him. Best of luck, lad.

Shame he seemed to be a prospect and scored some goals in the dev squad.

Never knowingly right.

the type of player who we would have kept for 5 years previously. If we are making early decisions thats a good thing.

Same! I can only presume we have better players as he was very good from what I saw (albeit a few games).

Good luck to him. Don't think he really looked close enough to the level and with Hassan being a couple of years younger and a couple of other youngsters waiting to step into the Dev squad, its right for him and the club now rather than us wasting more years of his career.

Watched him in the final against Brentford and he worked really hard.

Good luck to him.

This is spot on. It’s better for the club and the players to move them on when we don’t think they’ll quite reach the level.

I wish him well. I thought he did pretty well when I saw him play without really standing out and maybe you need to really stand out to make it at the next level?

Yeah good luck to him.

Whenever I saw him play I thought he looked useful - could have done a job for a L2 or L1 club? So I'm surprised he's gone to Ireland unless for family/personal reasons.

How many players from that Brentford conquering team remain at the club now?

Winning pots and pans at that level is nice to have, but not much use if it doesn't produce first team players.

If you look at the team that started the game we still have:

Kieran Morgan - big season ahead re: his future
Daniel Bennie - still a fan
Emerson Sutton - hype has died down a fair bit
Matteo Salamon - don't know enough

Are Putman and Wilkie still around? Both are 20 though so time will be up soon if not left already.

The team that started vs Dulwich Hamlet looks a little more promising in terms of potential first team players.

I like Pearlman and Alemayehu , and Scarlett looks to have the raw ingredients. Club has put out pieces about pro deals for Sanyaolu and Adjetey-Brew but not convinced.

Only Sutton and Salamon are truly home grown of the players above and on the fringes.

Just goes to show the player fallout is astronomical. Is it really worth it I wonder, years & years of dedication to be one of the 99.9999999% that doesn't make it through. It's brutal.

"Are Putman and Wilkie still around? Both are 20 though so time will be up soon if not left already."

They're both still at the club. The DS purge happened earlier in preseason and they survived it. I'd imagine they'll go out on loan again this season.

Salamon, Pearman, and Smith are also 20 so it will be interesting to see what happens to them this season.

Wilkie I thought I looks a decent prospect at CB but of course it's a whole other matter stepping up to the Championship.

Still at the club:

Salamon
Putman
Wilkie
Morgan
Bennie
O'Brien
Sutton
+
Esquerdinha (not sure if he is still there really, though he was in Devs this week)

So, that's 8 from 15 who appeared that night. More than two.

Tuck and Esquerdinha were the best players in that cohort (putting Morgan aside because he was basically a first teamer). One is gone and the other almost certainly on his way. The jump is huge.

*Sutton has potential, is very good with the ball at his feet, but goes missing when he doesn't have possession.

If the club is winning pots and pans, it must help attract better youngsters into the club. Surely, that must be a good thing?

Only if they some/any of them end up in the first team.

That, going Cat 1 and number of first team appearances are the selling points. It's still a difficult sell when competing with the 'bribery cheque books' of the Prem.

Looking fort 1 or 2 to come through each year. Isak looking most likely this season. Like to see Smith & Pearman go out on loan to develop further.
