I know mate. Some of our fans footballing knowledge of their own players is appalling.

I'll make a quick prediction here that Slav won't have any of these so called talented youngsters any closer that the subs bench or Cup duty. Burke, Rice, Cullen, Martinez will all go the same way as Sameulson and all of the others down the years that everyone bangs on about. Slav does not give a shit what happens 2 years down the line, even two months, as he may not be here. So expect at least 2/3 more signings of squad players who will help him get the results he needs to stay in the job.

Do you mean Rice Burke or Rice Oxford?
You're getting a bit confused there mate.
We have REECE Burke and REECE Oxford. We also have Declan RICE.
I guess you don't follow the team too much.

Very impressive in the PSFs. I do love a defender who is confident enough to bring the ball out.

I'm sure Rice played at DM in the recent games, not CB.

After last season Billic's job is on the line (yes, even before a ball is kicked), he will not risk blooding them in this season unless we get off to an absolute flyer or be in a position where the R word is not discussed going into the Xmas period.

Oh and if Oxord can hold down a spot in that BMG team then he's clearly our best young centre back.

West Ham owner & "fan" David Gold says he never saw a 20 year old Rio Ferdinand play.
Supporting someone else that year or just has no interest in football teams that aren't making him money?

I really hope that these youngsters aren't sent out on loan this year and given a chance in the first team squad.
Other clubs have succeeded in bringing on their youngsters and it would be great to have a core of the team going forward that has come through the youth set up.
Just imagine a core of Burke, Oxford, Rice, Holland, Cullen and Martinez in the next 2-3 years, gradually introduced from this season.
From what I've seen and heard they all have the potential to make it to PL level and I would like to think that is the clubs aim.

If we are going to get rid of a CB it has to be Fonte

Rice is playing himself into contention as a decent DM. Burke has also looked solid enough at CB, I'd be happy for Collins to move on this summer so to allow Burke, and maybe Rice, to get some game time.

Burke has outshone Collins in the games so far.

I'm a bit tired of the continued Calleri over Fletcher whining. Calleri was terrible but still a country miles better than the clueless flabby Fletcher. Absolutely streets ahead. Can't believe someone paid actual money for him.

These players have developed well in the u-23s under Westley, but unfortunately Mr Bilic has up to recently shown very little inclination of how to encourage or coach young players in the ways of the first team squad.
Look at what happened last season when Calleri kept Fletcher out of the team week after week.
I hope I'm wrong, but these players are all likely to go out on loan so players like Fonte, and Snodgrass have little competition.
