He did this in the semi final of copa Lib… in Brasil. Loool kid is arrogant.

He’s Ronaldinho lite with his flair. Even tried to score an Olympic goal. No idea how he was left off both Nt lists again. Might be due to the copa I’d have to check. But he could really start now. Also there’s no way I see him going back to LB for club. Too good to play there

Pass, we just won the U17s because of a kid named Paris. If there was ever a sign...

Speaking of Brunner the 17yo is up to 10 goals in 7 matches at the U19 level, scoring every 58 minutes. BVBII is in the third division, so I wonder if we'll see him promoted there once he's done with his schooling.

Ramsak is doing well in his first full season at the u19 level too. With the 16yo posting 3 goals and 2 assists after 7 matches. With those two, Mouki, Weiper, and Beier getting back on track, we should be able to fill the 9 in the coming years as long as thing solidify themselves deeper.

I initially didn’t notice it was one per club and Premiership clubs, otherwise there’s a somewhat glaring omission at the moment.

I picked up Shea Lacey in my keeper setup. Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly were both on my list, but our resident Gooner grabbed them and I didn’t have the room anyway.

Brunner put up great numbers last year too. Hopefully he’s the real deal as he’s in my keeper setup as well.

As always it's curious which players they pick and which ones they don't, but of the kids they picked that I've seen, I can't say any of them are bad noms.

- Not sure Lukic would've been my pick from the RBS system, but he's certainly an interesting midfield talent with good skill and size.

- Again Yotov wouldn't have been my pick from that Bayern U-19 team (Ramsak), but he's got talent and with his US-eligibility that probably gets him a little extra attention.

- Duranville looks dynamic as all hell when fit.

- WZE is just a monster; ditto Brunner & Endryck.

- I still think Darvich moves deeper from the 10...like Samardzic has...but he's in that Bischof, Wanner, etc. tier of kids only behind Musiala & Wirtz

- Kabar is a very exciting FB prospect with everything in his toolbox; great athlete, great skill level, strong but unrefined defensive instincts, and tremendous leaping ability...though I'd probably have gone with Ouedraogo as the third German; kid just has it all and is much more intriguing than Lukic.

- Hato looked like a left-footed Timber whenever I've gotten glimpses of him; great mobility and defensive instincts, with strong technical skills.

- Borys stood out in a good way whenever I watched Poland's u17s at the euros; leading them to the semis with his craftiness, combativeness, & creativity

Some glaring omissions and not just in L1.
As for the 3 french names, one is obvious and arguably the best 06 on the planet, the other should probably not be on the list compared to at least 2 other names and the 3rd one has no business being here.

I’m fairly familiar with almost a third of those guys. Definitely looks like they’re missing some guys, but I think some of the ones I’m thinking of are 2007 born.

I have Echeverri, Prestianni, Duranville, Luis Guilherme, Brunner and Pafundi on my keeper team and I got them all for the league minimum (Guilherme by trade though). I might have had Zaire-Emery were it not for Evilo…

Interesting they have that many Barca kids and one of the highest rated 06s isn’t there.

Anyway, this list always has some odd choices on it.

Interesting. I watch him and he’s good, but I’m not sure how good. Then you look at his numbers and it seems hard to argue. Maybe you’re just trying to throw folks off his scent. ;)

Like I said, the kids they pick and the kids they leave off are weird. But at least this time I don’t see any kids who I’ve watched that aren’t at least kinda exciting…even if there are better candidates from the same nation or academy.

After two gorgeous goals in the first half, we take the lead in the second half with a really soft goal at the end of a good movement and run from Mouki.

Mouki is too much fun at this level. Having him & Tel leading our attack in 2026 will be too sexy :sarcasm:
