[Albion] Should any of the under 23's get into the squad for the last 3 matches ?

The Under 23's are on fire , 18 goals in the last 4 games with stand out performances from Bjordal , Gyokeres and Connolly to name but three . Whats the point of having this squad if we don't blood them . Frankly we are a bit predicatble up front and the first team have scored 2 goals in the last 4 games . Lets blood these guys before someone else buys them - at least get them on the bench .

They've got a play off final and Sussex Senior Cup final first.

No chance all the time we're not mathematically safe. Even then, there's away games at Man City & Liverpool; let's blood them in gently

Because, impressive as they've been, they've been turning over fellow inexperienced 20 year olds: something of a step down from Kevin De Bruyne, Mo Salah and, er, Jesse Lingard.


Maybe if we're safe, Hughton might pick Walton on the bench at Anfield, given that Wigan's season will already be over and Krul is unlikely to get a new contract (surely). But I doubt he's suddenly going to launch a load of DS players into the limelight.

Yeah, do their confidence the world of good getting smashed by a City side chasing a points record...

I'm perfectly happy to be corrected, but as Walton was on a season-long loan at Wigan I don't believe he is eligible to play for Albion('s first team) for the rest of this season.

CH doesn’t work like that. He’ll pick the strongest squad available to him for each match.

As Edna has said, the U23s have done well but only against Championship under 23s plus a couple of West Brom outcasts. We want 9 points from our last 3 matches

Every improved position in the table is worth about 2 million.

If any are included I would like to see Manadriou or Sanders on the bench as cover for midfield and possibly Bjordal or even Gykores instead of March if we are safe. None of them, to start though.

I agree BG. As a reward and incentive for their great work this season, a place on the first team bench would be a great boost for any youngster coming through.
