aaid Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 1 minute ago, Squirrelhumper said: I understand that but he's playing (and starting) for Chelsea 23s already. He's already ahead of what somebody his age would normally be at Chelsea and I've no doubt when he fills out (which he already has started to) then he'll continue that trajectory. I know it's a bold prediction but I think he'll have a full cap before he turns 19. At Chelsea he's only a year ahead of his development, normally this would be his last season in the U18s. That's encouraging but its not that out of the ordinary. There's nowhere else to go after the U18s, there's only the U23s or out of the door. He won't get a full cap until he plays first team football somewhere. I don't see him doing that until season 2020/21 at which point he'll be 19.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes to Rangers for the whole of next season, depending on his physical development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised at that either but I still think he'll be in the development squad for another season then go on loan to a decent championship or lower premiership side.

BremnerLorimerGray Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 If he were to go out on loan, I'd like to see him go to a decent level in Europe. The link up with Vitesse and PSV may see him go to the Eredivisie which could well boost his development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of me was actually really shocked that Bates is still eligible for the U21's, as I had it in mind that he was a lot older for some reason.

PASTA Mick Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 Updated squad - Ryan Fulton - Hamilton Academical Robby McCrorie - Rangers Ross Doohan - Ayr United (on loan from Celtic) David Bates - Hamburg Ross McCrorie - Rangers Tom McIntyre - Reading Ryan Porteous - Hibernian Liam Smith - Ayr United Daniel Harvie - Ayr United Ryan Williamson - Dunfermline Athletic Chris Cadden - Motherwell Allan Campbell - Motherwell Lewis Ferguson - Aberdeen Billy Gilmour - Chelsea Michael Johnston - Celtic Kyle Magennis - St. Mirren Stevie Mallan - Hibernian Iain Wilson - Kilmarnock Fraser Hornby - Everton Frank Ross - Aberdeen Oli Shaw - Hibernian Hopefully we will be Andorra but I'm not sure it's a strong enough squad to beat the Dutch again.

bazmidd Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 What the hells wrong with Burke? He was fine last week playing for West Bromwich second string in the cup. He hasn't started a league game all season you would think a Scotland U21 game might actually benefit him. Better be a legitimate reason or really starting to worry his attitude is the reason he won't make full use of his talent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazmidd Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Yeah I read it, he has a sore knee so he's sent back as a precaution. So no actual injury then just a sore knee.... Wonder if it was a West Bromwich game this weekend if he would be in the squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replaced by Daniel Harvie, fresh off the back of his 2nd successive sending off in the league, this time for throwing the ball at an opponent in a 5-0 defeat! To be fair he has been excellent since coming in, other than those two games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASTA Mick Posted September 6, 2018 Author Share Posted September 6, 2018 We've looked poor at this level for a while. We really struggle to break teams down and that's the story so far tonight. Only positive is that Taylor, Souttar, McKenna, Morgan, Burke, McBurnie and a good few others could all still play in this side was it not for injury and being called up to the first team.
