Great to see so many youngsters involved in the first team training.Spotted 16 year old striker Ashley Trujillo 1:07 , would love to know what the clubs plan is for him. Is he too young for a loan?
Problem is take this kids out of training and we'd have as many players as Sheff Wed have.
Hoping that the state of art training facility has a large enough Physio Room. Hearing that JCS, Frey, Varane and Cook already have their own recovery suites - name plaques and everything...
Also we can't loan out those that need one most yet again as they are our back up even if they are not ready...
It’s ridiculous we are going into the first game of the season with such a light squad. The first few games are winnable. The squad put together is so light and weak. These 17 and 18 year olds should be out on loan. Not potentially being in our squad for Saturday. We have had all summer to sort this squad out!

In fairness Nourry has said that 18/19yo need to be pushing for a 1st team place or else they will be moved on, most of those in the training video are that age. There will always be one or two 16/17yo who are asked to train so they can assess them.
I've been banging this drum since the DS won the PL Trophy, those players were going to be moved to the 1st team and we wouldn't make loads of signings. I'd like to think a couple of ST should come in though.
I was sitting there thinking 'wow, some of the passing and moving is really nice, we look really good attacking' Then I thought about it - their opposition defence is QPR... oh dear.
'We're gonna score one more than you... Rangers!'
Celar better be a monster this season.

If this is indicative of the available squad (big if!) then we're looking at Walsh - Larkeche - Morrison - Mbengue - Adamson - Field - Madsen - Chair - Dembele - Poku - Celar.
We're asking for miracle work from Stephan if we're not even going to get the first team fully fit for the first fixture. This isn't the worst side I've seen us put out but there's a lot of players who need to start coming good for this side to be competitive.

Sadly I think your probably right and that's Nourry's plan, trouble is chuck too many DS kids into competitive Championship matches at the same time and we will get rolled over by the more physical aggressive teams, then there's the Contenders who will just have too much quality in there squad.
Last season Marti got the balance right only blooding players when they appeared ready or sadly injuries gave him no option. It's a tough gig as a Head Coach being told these are the players you have to work with and this is the clubs strategy get in line or move on.
I'm personally hoping we can still get 2/3 more experienced players in to balance out the squad, it doesn't have to cost a fortune if you do the right deals at the right time,
Hopefully JS will have a few players back from injury soon which will be a massive help because we have one of the weakest striking options in the division and that's when they are fit.

This is QPR, there will be another half dozen signings..
Not least because using the DS = relegation and ‘the Messi of football back rooms’ needs success asap.

I hope not. A midfield of Field Madsen and Chair would see us get taken apart. And that’s before you get to the full-backs.

Indeed. On Saturday I'd expect Morgan to be alongside Field. He'd offer more protection than Madsen. Varane to get 30 minutes.
Vale hasn't nailed down a position yet, which can be a problem if you're viewed as a utility player. If we don't bring in CM or re-employ Colback, I wouldn't be surprised to see him used in there.

It’s a funny one isn’t it? Vale obviously has a very good reputation and looked good in preseason but no one seems to have an idea of quite where he’d fit into our team.

Is Frey injured again, not seen him in any of these videos?
I'm hoping that he's only got one more year because it's a joke that your best option as a target/hold up player from a weak selection is always on the treatment table and even if he starts struggles to complete the 90

Frustrating isnt it, our main man up top (by default) has not played a single minute of pre-season. Literally zero game model 'patterns of play' practised.
And we know from experience how long it takes him to get match sharp. We're probably looking at October time before gets in his stride… just in time to miss another chunk of games with an inevitable calf strain.
