Just watching the U-23's v Man. Utd repeated on LFCtv.
It's been a cracking game with some good performances on both sides. However, I've been particularily impressed with Rhian Brewster, Glen McAuley and Yan Dhanda going forward.
We've got a quality set-up at Academy and U-23 level and I can only see us getting better under the continued stewardship of Alex Inglethorpe and Co.

You're watching the u18s not 23s.

Yes, I realized after I'd pressed "send". the sentiment remains the same though.

What age do the youth teams go up to? Age 23? It's interesting because you never see a player who played with the youth team until age 23 come into the first team. Is it more intended for the players on the fringe of the first team or trying to regain fitness (Ings)?

Happy to hear 18s looked solid.

U23 is usually players 17-20 the younger they are the better they're doing to be playing for the u23 the u18 side will be mainly 15-18 year olds with again the younger being the better prospects and 18 year old playing there rather than u23 are late bloomers or not going to make it.

Dhanda in particular looks to have come on in leaps and bounds this year.
Did you notice the RB (Sharrif) for that game is only 15!
