Premiership - Which current BHAFC players would cut it?

[We're the Stripes]

I'll put my neck on the line and predict that the following players will definitely play Premier League football at some point in their careers (from this point):

Dunk
Bridcutt
Noone
Buckley
Vicente
JFC

There're plenty of others in our squad who may have the chance if they prove themselves in this division.

Dunk, Bridcutt and Vicente for me. That's it.

Right now, or eventually?

Right now I'd say Noone, CMS and Bridcutt. Haven't seen enough of Vicente yet but I suspect him too. Noone ran Sunderland and Liverpool ragged, he wouldn't be playing for Chelsea or Utd but slot him in on a flank for one of the promoted sides or a West Brom/Blackburn/Fulham and he'd do well. CMS's movement and work rate is Prem class, just needs to be a tad more clinical. Bridcutt is so good it's unreal, I genuinely think he could fit into a mid-table Prem team at the moment. His size would possibly count against him but his touch, composure and positional awareness is different class.

Eventually? Without a doubt Dunk, LuaLua & Buckley, and *maybe* Dicker if he stops turning into tackles (his tekkers & vision is the best in our squad). I'd also give a shout for Ashley Barnes. It staggers me how Albion fans continue to underrate him. I believe his pen last night was his 30th goal for us in 65-odd games? Can play on a flank or deeper in the hole, looks stronger and quicker this year, his anticipation to get into good areas in the box is second to none- but he has a tendency to fluff chances he should bury. But he's 21/22. DEFINITELY has a good chance of making it in the Prem in my book.

Ashley Barnes could be the next Sylvan Ebanks-Blake
