This lad's form is such that he deserves his own thread: still only 20 and is smashing them in for the West Ham PL2 side. Expect him to to be included in Kenny's squad for the game v Italy, especially if, as now seems likely, Aaron Connolly gets the call-up to the senior squad.
He got another 2 goals today (and an assist) for a West Ham side captained by our very own Conor Coventry. That's 7 goals in 6 games this season (only 4 were starts). London-born, but has played for us the whole way up - his Dad is Dub Tony Scully who played for QPR, Palace etc., but despite playing for us U21 and B, never made the senior break-through. Anthony won Ireland U15 player of the year in 2015 - the same award his Dad won 20 years earlier. Anthony's had a torrid time with in injuries in recent seasons, but is back now, bulked up a bit, and playing more as a converted striker instead of as an attacking midfielder or left winger and adapted really well: https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2019/september/19-september/scully-u23s-will-relish-middlesbrough-away-day. West Ham fans excited that he might be the next player to make the step-up from Academy player to senior team: https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2019/september/19-september/scully-u23s-will-relish-middlesbrough-away-day Definitely got big potential - and fantastic to have another possible top-class talent coming through up-top, who we could be forgiven for forgetting about with his injuries. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrE_52QMEbw Feeling good about our attacking options in the next few years

And yet he isn't anywhere near our U-21 squad, great position we've found ourselves in with regards to talent.

We're decent enough..

I'd rather Scully was drafted in rather than Drinan

Shortlisted for PL2 player of the month again and scoring goals on a regular basis. Would be good to see him involved in our underage set up. Anyone know where he is regarding wearing the sweet sweet green of ireland?

We need to get him in the U21's quickly. Hopefully that is the good that comes out of Troy and Aaron in the seniors. When is Kenny naming that squad I have seen anything about it pop up at all ?

13 games, 13 goals, 4 assists. Something wrong if Drinan called up ahead of him again

Agreed - doesnt look good. If he's not in the next ireland u21 squad then we should close the book on this one.
