FA Youth Cup game at Goodison Park tonight v Nottm Forest.

I intended to go but can’t make it. Braiden Graham is not playing and I doubt it will be televised although it was advertised as being available to season ticket holders, looks like it is members only — again.

Watched the first half.

Good performance from the young blues.

Armstrong is too good for that level.

Bill,

It looks like we might have a team this season.

6-0 and that’s without the young Irish lad Graham!

The future's bright watching the U18s tonight.

Leighton has them playing well; a lot of these lads have a future if the right manager brings them through.

Armstrong reminds me of a17-year-old Jude Bellingham – great build, great technically, pace to burn but very intelligent and elegant player – hope I haven't burdened him.

Some other great young kids on display tonight – directness with pace.

Some good football and good goals, Dave.

Mike@3. But he's no premier League experience, so he's no chance of playing in the first team

Good result! Read that the last Toffee to score a hatrick in FA Youth Cup was Franny Jeffers.

Some good players in this group. Armstrong of course but also Braiden Graham, Pickford, Lukjanciks, Clarke, Morgan, Loney…

Sam (12) Two good ‘keepers in an U18’s squad and plenty of quality, it seems, all through the team, with three lads brought in during the summer from Ireland, Scotland and London, Everton might be the place where top youngsters might won’t to come to instead of the last three or four years where some good young players couldn’t wait to get away from.

Armstrong puts me in mind of Trevor Brooking. Some lovely touches, passing and awareness and he has an edge, not the quickest but quick between the ears and he needs a pan of scouse down him.
Not ready yet but a real prospect when he fills out.
