Not sure who will be our Under 21 keeper for the next campaign - could be a weak spot again like last time. Maher started well enough but got worse as time went on. There's a couple of young Irish keepers playing PL2 at Tottenham - Josh Keeley and Aaron Maguire. Might be one of them that gets the jersey.

A permanent move or a loan? Still a very young guy so possibly focusing on college instead of football?


Going to the US for college it's a bit of both. Gets a fully paid scholarship likely and you've always got the MLS draft to get picked up in.

He's just not that great, looked fairly poor any time he played underage for us. I'd say he's just trying to get as much out of the experience as he can.
We're decent enough..

That was a permanent move for him. I think dropping to that level means he's sh*t, basically.

Hopefully they don't push for a qualifier in March and they decide to have a training camp instead. Still think they should have had one back in November.

I'm reading the host will be selected on Jan 25th, so on Wednesday this week.
Pot 2 would be a welcome development for sure.

To add, it is also possible we get a match in in March, like we did when Kenny took over.

Think the U21s is nine groups rather than ten like the seniors so the hosts would need to be ranked higher than us and we'll scrape into pot 2.

Nice work gathering the names.
We look very light at the back based on the list as it stands, and the goalkeeper position is up for grabs.

The draw is on Feb 2nd, I believe, so hopefully we get an idea of the fixtures list soon after that.

Goodidea for a thread, I'd suggest you rename it with 2023/24 at the end though or it will get lost on here.

Thought I'd make a new thread as the others I searched for were dedicated to previous campaigns.

Next campaign is for players born on/after the 1st of January 2002.

This is the player pool as far as I can see.
Mostly 02/03 born.
Players in [brackets] are 04/05 born.
Players in bold have U21 caps:
                                                         ST                       
                                       Emakhu            Armstrong   
                                       Carty                Kenny 
                                       Odubeko          Calum Kavanagh 
                                       [O'Mahony]     Cian Kavanagh
                                       [Lonergan]        [Fraser]
   
                      LW                                                                  RW      
                O'Neill                              AM                           Costelloe
                Oko-Flex                      Moran                        [Vata]
                Springett                     Gilsenan                      Burns
                Goodrham                     Leavy                         Duffy 
                O'Kane                         [Vaughan]                    [Umeh]
                Hayes                           Mooney                        Harkin
                Fitzhugh                                                           Fitzgerald
                                                   
                                                                                
                                          CM                         CM        
                                      Hodge                   Phillips 
                                      Lawal                    Adeeko 
                                      Healy                    [Murphy] 
                                      [McJannet]           Henry-Francis
                                      Corbally                 Noonan  
                                      McCormack           Adebambo
                                      Ibrahim                  John Patrick

     LB/LWB                                                                                           RB/RWB   
 Adaramola                                                                                      [Curtis]
 Furlong                                                                                           [Abankwah]
 Greenwood                                     CB                                             Caffrey
 Adedokun          Roughan        Garcia-MacNulty    [Grehan]           Solomon
                         [Murphy]         O'Riordan               L.Kavanagh
                         McGrath           Negru                      Mills
                         Watson            Egan                        Adegboyega
                         Adetoro           Ogungbo                 [Okagbue]
                         Jones              [Heffernan]
 

                                                       GK    
                                                   Keeley
                                                   Brooks
                                                   Cahill
                                                  [Wogan]
                                                   Corcoran
                                                  [Mason]
                                                   Doherty
                                                   Rose
                                                   Blair


I'm sure I missed a few names here and there (& more will pop up as the campaign goes on), so if you want to point them out I'll add them in.
Also, not entirely sure of the positions for a few lads (like Caffrey), and obviously some can play multiple positions.


Goals/Assists (Incl. Friendlies)

Moran - 3 goals, 5 assists
Armstrong - 4 goals, 1 assist
Vata - 5 goals
Emakhu - 3 goals, 1 assist
Oko-Flex - 3 goals
Lawal - 1 goal, 1 assist
Carty - 1 goal, 1 assist
Phillips - 1 goal
Gilsenan - 1 goal
Kenny - 1 goal
O'Neill - 1 goal

Springett - 2 assists
Curtis - 2 assists
Healy - 2 assists
Hodge - 1 assist



[Cannon - 1 goal]


Senior Players still eligible:
Bazunu, Parrott, Omobamidele, Ferguson, Ebosele, Moran


--
Looks like a strong group, RWB might be a problem area if Ebosele is called up to the seniors.
Unlike the previous 2 campaigns, this group should largely be able to stay together for the whole thing.
