March and Estupinan aside. 5 of them are either in full training now or will be in a week or so.

Sorry not meant for you @Hiheidi and I've said this elsewhere but it would be good if these twitter headline accounts linked to the source of their story - beyond just saying its via the Italian press. We'd like to read the actual story ourselves.

19 year old Noel Atom Bigo was in the squad for the 2nd to last home game v Chelsea.

Gotcha . I'm with @jackalbion - keep an eye out for Freddie SImmonds.

yes. It sounds like a signing that would really suit us and we need CB cover and more experience in the squad and he would probably work well with Hurzeler ( on basis they're German ! - ha ha) but where - aside from Schira - is there any reporting that we're interested .

Depends what you mean by the conveyor belt ? Ferguson, Odel Offiah, O Mahony, Baker Boitey, Peupion, Duffus, Hinshelwood all had PL/Europe game time last season after starting initially in the u21s. And then there is the goalkeepers - Beadle, Rushworth. and some exciting prospects in our u18s...

Time to read this thread on X / Twitter again i'd suggest.

wish these flurry of headline accounts on Twitter would link to the article and journalism they're quoting.

This is the article about the loan agreement with Feyenoord. Sounds like they're just waiting for Buonanotte to decide what he wants to do. Clubs, wages, agreement all done...doesn't sound like Southampton interest that concrete...

Of course not - but he’s still one of the most promising academy centre backs in the country . And Dunk ain’t retiring just yet.

16 year old Freddie Simmonds, England youth captain and playing for the u21s today is a great home made centre back prospect.

The formation has been pretty much 4-2-3-1 in every game so far. And Next week, as per normal , you’ll see pretty much the likely Everton line up starting at Villarreal . True - He probably could have done with having Wieffer (from the start), Dunk, Barco, Pedro and Verbruggen available...

ofc . its just interesting to see it nonetheless.

Yep. He said this via at about 3.15.

yes. because that was our first games in pre season - so players weren't up to playing > 45 mins. its pretty standard stuff for pre season. yesterday the first 11 played 60/65 mins. I'm sure v Villarreal it will be even more. Veltman/Steele yesterday played 90 ! Not sure what you're trying to...

Is it really that unusual. ? We made 4 changes from the equivalent starting line up (Newcastle in the Summer Series) to Luton (H) last season. Wouldn't be a surprise if we made about 4-5 changes this time max from QPR > Everton (A) . - ie: bringing in Dunk, Pedro, Verbruggen, Barco ? ...

Verbruggen was there watching on - guess he's still a bit away from returning to training. 20 year old Killian Cahill was the 3rd keeper yesterday.

Hurzeler has confirmed that Pedro is training and fit and that Dunk is back either tomorrow (day off ? ) or Tuesday. So presumably both in line for game time v Villarreal .

Ferguson and Solly have been doing light training for a few weeks. No word on progress. Assume Evan is close to full training return.

Yes. 4-2-3-1 Or close to this at least Steele/Verbruggen Veltman Dunk JPVH Barco Baleba Wieffer (or Hinshelwood) Minteh Welbeck Pedro Mitoma Enciso/Ferguson /Milner / ACD /Lamptey/Adingra / Igor involved depending on fitness.
