Frimpong & O'Connor

Could the large number of teenagers we've signed be an indication that we're confident a Colt team will be admitted to the lower leagues in the very near future?

I don't think so, I think the idea is they will replace some of the current first XI when they are moved on.

United fans saying O'Connor has been nominated for Academy player of the year last 2 seasons.

he's primarily a right back but wants to become a centre half.

Ivan, our defence at academy level is terrible, we let Morrison go who was the best in years

it's hard at that position for young players IMO especially with how the game is going, if you cant play out from the back you wont make it

I know of a young aspiring Celtic centre back in the academy set up.

tall, athletic and very comfortable on the ball. For a young man he has his head screwed on and I have high hopes for him.

Not going to name him on here for certain reasons.

Eoin Jess mate

Next big thing in Scotland

Yea see what your saying Call, seen this mentioned online and it could make sense

Another major plus has seen a clear strategy in youth investment with an eye on filling roles in a year or 2. Acting in advance as opposed to reacting to the loss of players. The signings of Connell (Brown), Afolabi (Edouard), Frimpong (Bauer) and O'Connor (Ajer) have been made with a view to replacing a potentially departing member of the squad. I can't remember a time we've actually done this.
