David Wilson

I was pitching maybe a squad at 30 at some stage as well.

I know him or Hal Grimson did say that someone has dropped out this morning, kind of last minute, so they have the potential to call up at least maybe one, maybe two.

Maybe two players, but it is an interesting squad and probably interesting as well for the players who aren't in it.

I guess like Harvey Vale, Jimmy Dunn, Boston Lawal, Gavin Buzunu, who we all probably would have thought would have been in the squad.

But I guess we're at the time of the season and the time of the year where players who have especially played in the lower leagues in England and the championship in League One have played 46 plus games.

It's fairly taxing on the body.

And Himrail Grimson said that, you know, those players have a couple of knocks and that's why they're not involved.

And, you know, they still could be involved in the squad for Canada and for Qatar and Dublin just before that game as well.

So an interesting squad.

And I suppose the most interesting thing is that we have someone with real X-factor kind of star quality in Jade Numa, we hope.

A very high potential player as well.

as the manager alluded to.

And then we have Jack Moylan as well, who's just been absolutely tearing it up for the last, since he's come back from injury.

So yeah, interesting, interesting squad and kind of sets us up for a week next week where, yeah, we're going to see some different players and maybe, you know, maybe a different style of system and we're going to have some different coaches as well, which is also interesting.

But yeah, it's kind of, it's something to look forward to for the next week.

Live on YouTube here.

but yeah I'm pretty happy it's a pretty nice squad on the surface of it yeah I think the big news just I suppose from the announcement Ben is that Owen Elding is definitely going to be playing and committing his future to Ireland there was that story last week that England were sniffing around but he's 100% committed

It's exciting.

I suppose on Jade Numa it was kind of interesting that he's been training with Benfica and he's had a huge, yeah, I guess like a...

a lot of spotlight on him just because of the type of player he is and the profile of player he is and the club that he's playing for and the development and the education that he's getting at Benfica.
