I have heard some good things about Timothy Fosu Mensah, a 17 year old centre back arrived in August from Ajax and believe he is playing for the youth tonight. Would be interested in hearing how he has played?

Didnt get to see the game but reading the match report sounds as though he played well

Didn't watch today's game, but watched him in a few games earlier, and by the looks of it, he's ready to step up to the u21. He looks like a really dominant figure, quite skilled, can play as a central defender or as a center mid, got really good technique, and plays at a much higher level then most of the other guys in the u18 in my eyes. So hopefully we'll see him a lot for the u21 next season, got high hopes for this guy!

Red man I watched the game and in my opinion he was the best player on the pitch last night. I don't usually watch the under18's just u21 and first team but it was free entry so popped over to watch. Difficult to judge someone over one game but if his level of performances are the same as yesterday he has a chance to make it as has a good build and was technically very sound with the ball showing a good array of short and long passing. Our right back caught my eye as well. That said hull u18s are at a lower level than utd so quite hard to judge exactly.

Red man forgot to say but he played more a midfield role yesterday. Just thought I would mention it if he is a defender.

I watched the game last night red man and Mensah stood head and shoulders above every player on the pitch, his physique looks that of a 21 year old not 17 which i'm sure is a good advantage to have but not only that he is very calm and controlled on the ball and always looks to play forwards which he can do with speed, last night he sat in a defensive midfield role but was still carrying the ball forwards instead of just offloading it for others to do that job, the one tackle he put in was immense and got the biggest cheer of the night, obviously I don't want to big him up to much and say he'll be a world beater but I do have high hopes, would not be surprised to see him turn out for the u21's sometime this season he looks that far advanced, keep a look out for Gribbin as well, looks a very classy, confident talent, hope this helps.

Definitely one to look out for
