The promotion won by the Albion U-23 side last season does seem to have elevated the interest of the Albion-supporting public in the younger generation coming through (unless all those who rocked up at the training ground the other Friday night were closet Scousers). Some of the U-23 players will be known to most Albion fans, either through loan spells at League clubs (such as Ben White) or through their performances (and goalscoring) at U-23 level itself (such as Aaron Connolly, Viktor Gyokeres and Jayson Molumby). However, I'm sure it is still the case that most of the U-23 squad remain something of a mystery to even the most ardent U-23 follower.
In an attempt to address this, I'm thinking about writing up some detailed player profiles of the U-23 lads. I've started out with right-back Owen Moore (for no particular reason). You can now read all about our Essex lad who has an older brother who is a professional footballer, played with the son of one of the most famous footballers in the world and is an (age-level) England international - U-23 Player Profile - Owen Moore
I have no idea if these will be of interest or serve an NSC need. I have no desire to waste your time (or mine) writing up articles that no-one will read, so please let me have some feedback on whether you would like to see more. I'm happy to work on these as time permits, and if there is a particular player you would like to see featured next, let me know.
Over to you, folks!
