Sad really. Decent lad, true Evertonian, just isn't quite good enough for the EPL. Meanwhile we have 30 odd players with the inverse attributes.

Kieran. He's probably not good enough for the EPL - just like the shower who represented us yesterday which featured the slowest moving midfield pairing (trio when Delph came on) in all of Christendom.

Good luck to him but why do we have so many players in their early 20s, and with no real chance of the first team squad, still hanging about?

So that Unsie can win the prestigious EPL2 by playing men against 16 and 17 year olds.

Good luck to the lad. I hope the highlight of his career is not the World Cup win and he can do something at senior level.

He's been on loan for the last two seasons so he's not been in the u23s at all. Harry Charsley is the one Unsworth keeps selecting even though his contract supposedly expired and he's almost an overage player now.

Charsley keeps playing so that he can find a club, apparently. Everton are nothing if not loyal to their players, even if they're ex-players. Think of Jose Baxter. The main aim of the U23s is to get all players to a league club and not get them ready for the first team. Therein lies the problem with our set-up. Aim low Everton... pfffff

Rumour was we offered them their pick of Schnieds, Siggy and Walcott. After they had stopped laughing they said they preferred Connolly. Not daft the people at Fleetwood.

Sounds like a good name for a band ''Connolly goes to Fleetwood''

Good luck to the lad, I hope he does well.
