Too early to tell, but I am thinking Armstrong maturity in the Cardiff game, a goal and an assist, could be attributed to the work Ainsworth and Dobson did during preseason?
Eze had a breakthrough season after a successful loan at Wycombe.
Ainsworth is not adverse to having academy players training with the first team - Gubbins, Woodman, Hawkins, Aoraha, Pedder and even Kolli appeared in the substitute bench
I get it we are skint on squad members with championship level and had no choice but to look deep in the development squad, but we had past managers refusing to name academy players in match day squads to prove a point - two goalkeepers and leaving empty slots for substitutes etc.
Warburton, Beale gave no confidence in our academy players at all
Thoughts? [Post edited 13 Aug 2023 15:19]

We were talking about how he took his time and composed himself for that second goal after the game. Remember Huddersfield A last year, same position, and what he did with it... Some serious progress there. |  | | |

I thought his touch and all-round play was far better than last season
At the end of the day we're never going to know if these players are good enough unless we play them. Hopefully with us being skint it will give these youngsters more of a chance even if just off the bench
Another thing is if you do give them some mins and they might not be ready they will likely get better loans due to the exposure to the first team so win win [Post edited 13 Aug 2023 18:23]

Given we’re playing Dozell, I’d like SDM to be given a run in the side instead. | |

Thought Dozzell played well yesterday but yeah need to give SDM minutes as otherwise no point giving him another contract | | | |

It was his best all round performance by miles but for me we underused him last year, started just 3 games for us all season and we won 2 of them |  | | |
