Dunno how much you have seen of 'em SI but go for it-pick one to watch.
Jamie Donley - looks a very good striking prospect, right up there with Dane Scarlett for potential.
After that its probably Dorrington (CB) and Luke Gunter (GK) - both given a 3 year scholarship a year before most of them.
But kids can change quite quickly at that age - and of course this is the first season when they train full time which might advantage some but not others.
Peru beat Paraguay on penalties, taking them to the semi finals of Copa America so its unlikely their goalkeeper will be back to play for Orlando City either on Sunday or next Thuesday, meaning Brandon Austin has the chance of his 4th anf 5th ,match in goal for Orlando City - so far its 3 wins with Austin in goal.

Stuart Lewis confirmed as new U18 coach.
Good appointment as he's been a coach back at Spurs for a couple of years, and will know both the new Year 1 Academy group who he coached as u16's last season and will know 2nd year academy from coaching them the year before. Plus of course he came through Spurs academy a decade or so ago.
Hope we can contnue to find and train up good youth coaches - imo its essential for the club to bring through a few good players every year, ideally good enough for Spurs first team, but even those who fall short of that standard to go to EFL clubs (and some might return to PL clubs in due course) - and for thise who think we do not neeed to do this I'd point to ManU who have Rashford and Greenwood in their squad right now and that year of 1992 (Beckham, Scholes, Neville and co) to thank fir their renaisance, so why not Spurs ?
Did Jack Roles leave on a free?

"You're paid to train."
As a schoolboy, not paid
Is there a word in the English language to describe feeling really happy and absolutely gutted at the same time?
Oh f**k !
