JFC starts for the U-21s tonight

He played the whole 90 minutes, that is so cool, he's holding his own amongst EPL starters and Championship stars like Hughes and Butland, top effort, something for us all to be very proud of.

He is 20 years old FFS. Good on him! Loads of potential being realised and I have absolutely no doubt that he will be a better player in 2016 than he is now. Some people on this board need to grow up!

Yes, but not on this thread. Nothing but praise here, everyone is pleased for him.

I love JFC. He is the best young midfielder we have brought through for ages. In fact I am struggling to think of a better one that has come through our youth team.

He will make mistakes, but he will get much better. Plays a great role for England U21s

Definitely. If you can't feel a sense of pride from one of our own youth products being recognised among the best young players in the country (and looking very much at home), we might as well just all give up.

It's the sort of thing that would have seemed laughable just a few years ago. I know Harding and Hinshelwood made a couple of appearances for the u21s (mostly thanks to Peter Taylor), but JFC's a proper regular now with 8 caps, and is still only 20.

This with cow bells on, I wonder what odds to play in England first team no doubt with someone in the Premiership ( I hate EPL it sounds so..... American)

Bloody good player before anyone ask why !

QUITE a good player but a good international player?

He's not good enough at that level from what I have seen so far. Too one dimensional. No pace.

Shocks me how many think he's a bad player. Think he's decent now with the potential to be very good

Needs to learn to kick with his right foot. Then he might be quite good. How a pro player can get to that age and not kick well with both feet is beyond me.

Nonsensical post. He IS playing at 'that level', and clearly IS proving himself good enough to hold his own.

You only need average football knowledge to know JFC is a quality player!!

Agree completely.

If we don't want him plenty of clubs in our division would.

Worth fair bit of money

jimbob5 · Oct 12, 2014

Jimmy Case was very one footed.

England: Butland, Dier, Shaw, Hughes, Gibson, Moore, Berahino, Forster-Caskey, Kane, Carroll, Redmond. Subs: Garbutt, Bond, Lascelles, Ince, Woodrow, Pritchard, Baker.

As expected, Forster-Caskey retains his place for the second leg.

Kicks off at 5pm, and is live on BTSport1

Can only be beneficial to Jake himself and the clubs long term progression. Great stuff.

Value of a natural left-footer.

Comparable to Will Hughes.

Looks like they are playing at Withdean.

In that they're both left footed?
