I'm looking forward to seeing this kid 💯

Thought he was ahead of fab in his recovery but looks like he might not be quite back yet, fingers crossed he’s nearly there, really excited by our midfield options this year

Patience will pay off. Only player at the club who has scored a Champions League goal, and was man of the match in that game. With two goals, at the age of 19. We haven't seen much but he may have the highest ceiling of anyone at the club.

Good to hear that he spent his recuperation period honing his tailoring skills. Always worthwhile having a second occupation lined up for when you quit playing.

I don't BUT, if there's not been a setback and he's in full training with the group a lot of the time, it can't be TOO far off.
I imagine we might see him in a couple of B team games soon at a guess.

Given the current depth of the squad, I’d guess there’s no real pressure to get him playing until he’s 100% signed-off by everyone.

Fingers crossed he’s involved in a 21s game soon. Would love to see him make the bench against Reading…

Looking like that’s the case as of today’s update from KA:
Antoni’s looking really good.
He’s moving well. He was involved in an 11 v 11 on Wednesday, which was his first involvement in that type of scale and intensity, and on that size of pitch.
He recovered well from that and trained with us again this morning. The plan for Antoni is to be involved in a B-team game over the next couple of weeks.

Having seen so little of him so far, does anyone know where he might fit into the first XI when fit? Is he more of an attacking, ball carrying midfielder?

Something between a JDS and a Carvalho is my impression, 8 or 10, progresses the ball with carries from deep but is also a useful tight space operator in the opponents box, lots of goals and assists in his game.

Thanks, sounds like he could bring something a little different to the table, be great to see him get a run

His kind of player would have been good yesterday instead of Yarmo playing as a bit of a square peg. I imagine he's a long way off being considered a starter though
 

Antoni Milambo

I'd say best case scenario he could be something like Alex Scott is for Bournemouth. Whether he is at that level time will tell but good to see him starting games already.

On the bench at Reading perhaps ?

Off at half time in what was presumably a planned substitution.

Looked fairly anonymous (ie. not "the first teamer stepping down"), but it was simply just to get "minutes in the legs" and he'll get more involved on the ball with successive appearances.

Strewth! Is he another one that’s spent a year in the gym?
I think I only saw him a couple of times, but I remember him slimmer.

He's over 21 now; a proper grown-up!
