How do you know that?

Yarmoliuk didn't need a loan
Yarmo was already playing regularly in Ukraine’s top flight and was a year or two ahead of Frederick. Also CBs develop later and need game time to master their position. The quick, clever forwards in the PL (dare I say Watkins) would eat them alive and destroy their confidence.

Looked a decent prospect from what I saw today. Still a way off challenging for a 1st team spot but looks promising.

Nathan Aké style then! Impressive stuff.

How far off could he be filling in that problem fullback position we have?

He must be on a list of a few of the better B teamers that are currently injured ?

Arthur
Fredrick
Adedokun

Fingers crossed that they will be back soon ??

Could be in training for future RB cover (not this season, but long term).

Him and Iwan Morgan are real units as are most of the young U21's
I think the difference between the prem and championship not just skill but having these “units” in the squad. You can’t coach the latter.

It's strange how he's been as yet uncapped by Nigeria while a Bee. He was an U20 regular for half a season (U20 African Cup, U20 WC squads), joined Bees on loan, then nothing. Can only presume it was one of those where, like with Marcus Forss and the odd other prospect, it was seen that B team football was better for their development.

Called up to the Nigeria squad. I suspect we have a first team player hiding in plain sight here.

Let's not get carried away. He was the most simple solution, as he was already in the neighborhood.

But nice for him to be able to train with the big guys.

We shall see.

Arse have an 18 year old inverted left full back. Played twice a week for past few months. "Player of the Season" winner on Arseblog (a bit like Nick's platform for us).

They also have a seventeen year old who has scored 8 goals including CL as understudy for Saka and Odegaard.

If they are good enough they are old enough?!?

Arsenal have invested circa £40m in their academy in the last 3 years, their talent pool is significantly bigger than ours and they are more likely to have these "wonderkids" come out of their academy.

Even our top prospects will take a bit longer before they get up to Premier League level (if they ever do).

ok.
only 1 in 50 scholars (16+) make the first xi at big clubs.

but if they (or our!) players are good enough they are old enough !

Another respectful but....
this young man is (was) a B signing not Karleigh's Under 18s.

I live half the year in southern Africa and young black African men tend to mature quicker than many races, including white or coloured or mixed race people.

Have I missed Karleigh getting a new role? ?

Will be interesting to see if this squad then goes on to play the friendly with Russia, ie. that Benji Fred is kept on.
 

Benjamin Fredrick

He’s having a good game too. Very promising player to have on our books. Top find from the recruitment team, again
 

Benjamin Fredrick

great stuff.

dreadful football team crash in Nigeria today. many dead.
I’m assuming that you were referencing the two topics here; Benjamin getting his debut and on a separate bit of news, the crash in Nigeria.

Doing this in the same post looks odd, and could be misconstrued.
