Well done that lad, he is certainly progressing at a good rate

[Ted Hughes]

Doing very well indeed at Brum, pretty much starring by all accounts. Hope he gets a game for Wales. Makes the whole thing more interesting.

Imo, pretty much any kid from City who is potentilly good enough to make it for our first team, should be outstanding when they get a chance in the lower leagues.

You can allow a bit for the physical aspect being too much too soon, or for nerves, but if they are to make it at City, in most instances, they are going to look pretty fucking good at that level. Rusnack should be making an impact too. George Evans is doing it at Crewe.

Most of the ones we have sent out in recent years have been 'ok' or not so good. None of them have come back looking like potential first teamers from what I can remember. It;s a decent barometer of their chances.

That's one more reason I'm not optimistic about Rekik. Did ok playing as a fullback at Portsmouth, but Blackburn fans thought he was absolute dogshit. We learned about Boyata in similar circumstances. The Dutch league is not an accurate indication of a player, as has been proven beyond doubt. We have to see them here.

Huws is doing what a City academy graduate should. Well done to him, encouraging.

Agree with all that Ted, which also says it all regarding Guidetti. The lad has missed the train.

He might still turn out to be a decent mid level footballer, but he will never make it at the top.

Good luck to the lad and well done on the call up - keep building on what he's done so far hopefully!

Off topic but in response to Noolies post, i used our friend Google to see how many games he'd played for Stoke (4 subs i think) and noticed this:

Seems the lads hitting out a touch and frustrated at not playing, sounds like they're handling him with kid gloves to make sure his injury is sorted. Not the right way to go about it though, not done enough at this level to be billy big bollox.

He stood out in preseason when he was filling in, him and Facey. I hope he comes back determined to get in the squad.

Facey imo should be playing proper football now but isn't someone you could just throw in for a Prem game. It's a catch 22. Due to circumstances, & the pressure on Pellegrini to win 'a' trophy, we haven't had the opportunity to step up some of these lads.

Have to start looking at that next season.

I hope that we can hoover up the League Cup next week, & then next season we can use that competition to blood several young players each time. Not 11 at a time, just 2 or 3 in with the 1st team players, then maybe a couple on the bench.

Playing for your country would be great for the lad. Fair play to him. Another loan until Xmas to give him game time then assess whether he's good enough to be a squad player this time next year. Time will tell, but good luck to him

Son of a doctor as far as I'm aware. According to NQDP, he won't have the desire to make it.

In all seriousness, good luck to him. Passed me by that he'd signed for Birmingham on loan. Will keep an eye out for their match reports.

Lee clarke has been praising him like he is a god. He said he had an indifferent game last week and he was 7/10 he provided an assist and they won 2-1 away at blackpool. He said he normally performs at 8 or 9/10

His dad's got ready access to a 'scrip pad. That makes him middle-class in South Wales.

Absolutely not. They should grow up to be Doctors not fannying around playing football. No wonder the nhs is in such a fucking mess.

The NHS is in a mess because they regionalise the services then send out appointments for Saturdays, let the outpatients book NHS transport from them for it and wait half a day while it doesn't turn up, then turn round and tell them they don't do transport on weekends when they miss their appointment through no fault of their own. So that's a consultant surgeon's time wasted from a missed appointment, plus a GP's time wasted having to chase it up and rebook a new appointment - all because of one fuckwit. I fucking hate Leeds General Infirmary.
