Flynn Downes on 18:37 - Aug 5 with 2080 views | HarryfromBath | You get this all of the time on message-boards all over the division. The plaintive 'why are we bringing youth players through?' is quickly followed by 'he's out of his depth, loan him to a League One or Two side' when a youth prospect is given his chance. I am not saying that youth prospects should be above criticism. but some of the comments on this thread are odd for an 18-year-old player thrown in to his senior debut in what was an important and significant game for the club. Tyrone Mings said at a South-West get-together a few years ago that the differences between Championship and lower-league or youth football are (1) you have way less time to work with and (2) you are way more likely to be punished for mistakes. Ty said it can take up to a dozen or so games to adjust when you step up. Let's give the lad that before digging him out. Constructive criticism and things he can work on? Fair enough, but well out of his depth? After less than one full game? I'm sorry. | |

Think this was bumped from the Charlton friendly mate. But as ever you are quite incisive with the gist. Seemed to be a feeling today that our whole performance/season/fortunes hinged on Dozzell, certainly pre-match so it's extra galling to see him be raved about and then injured like that. | |

He was bloody excellent Woody. Battling , disrupting with intelligent re-cycling of the ball . The boy, the boys if you include young Dozzell, done good. Chuff me backwards, even Skuse got into positions hiterto unheard of. | | | |
Flynn Downes on 19:20 - Aug 5 with 1918 views | geg1992 | I thought he was the best player on the pitch. His ball control is fantastic, he's a great prospect. | |

He was my outfield motm by a mile. Bart was awesome too. | | | |

Though by the sounds of it everybody was rubbish at Charlton so I'm not sure why Downes was picked out. He was brilliant today. | |

You can always tell a good player on how they show for, and receive, a throw in. He showed for all of them and took most of them under control nicely. Quality. Looks like a hard eyed high cheekboned flinty Aryan obergruppenfuhrer too. | |
