It would be good to see McEntee get out for a loan alright, with the new contract agreed now hopefully it might happen next season. McGuinness has always been the higher rated of those two, he's English born and would almost certainly have been selected at least up to Under 20 with England if he had gone with them. Even then though he struggled a bit with the step up to senior football at times last season, but in the long run the year of football will stand to him and hopefully he can get another loan this coming season.
If nothing else we look well stocked at centre back for the next few years - Collins, O'Shea and Omobamidele are all really promising prospects, then there's McGuinness, McEntee and McNulty after them, while the likes of Jimmy Dunne and Warren O'Hora have a chance of carving out decent careers at maybe Championship level. Potentially serious depth in the position. And of course John Egan has a good five years in him at a high level also.

I know we all have our own favourite players that we keep an eye out for and cross our fingers they make the breakthrough, but the guy I'm really keen on seeing progress next season is Bosun Lawal at Watford. 18 years old, big strong midfielder, a very different kind of player to what we currently have. Has captained underage teams at Watford, was their academy player of the year and made his U21 debut for us in the summer. We seem to be covered for keepers for the long term, lots of centre backs and forwards with potential coming through too. Bosun would be a very welcome addition if he can progress!

Surprising to see Seamas Keogh leave Southampton for Sligo Rovers. He looked an outstanding underage prospect but had injury problems last season apparently. Still young enough to deliver on his potential.

Tyreik Wright linked with Swindon, Salford and Leyton Orient in The Athletic. I thought he might've attracted interest from L1 teams but apparently not.

Adam Murphy. Another from the 2005 group. On the bench for St Pats v Bohs last week. Was always an exceptional talent

One player who has fallen under the radar until recently is Adam O'Reilly. Had a similar profile to the likes of Jason Knight coming through the age groups, but while Knight got his break at Derby O'Reilly never really got a look in at Preston and was sent on some hopeless loan moves to English non league clubs.
Hopefully the Waterford loan was the chance he needed to get his career going again. By all accounts he was excellent for Waterford but whether that will translate into opportunities at Preston remains to be seen. Similar to Luca Connell who is around the same age he needs to get more first team football under his belt soon, hopefully he gets a run in the first team or, if not, another decent loan move this season.

Was tipped for great things at Ringmahon Rangers, definitely had what it takes to to make a top performing forward imv. I am still very hopeful for him (as is everyone else down in Mahon). He just needs a decent loan move to develop and come good. Hopefully it will happen at Waterford.

I see Deji Sotona has been linked with a move to Crystal Palace. Could be some truth to it since Veira was the one that signed him for Nice. |
