David Brooks - England Call Up - Player of the Tournament

[Dellas Cowboys]

Bob Evans was capped by Wales 10 times. It was discovered that, although both his parents were Welsh, he had been born in Chester and was therefore qualified to play for England and he then played 4 times for England. He was our left winger when we won the FA Cup final in 1915

Looks like Ched, was he his Great Grandad.

Bob Evans was the name of my headteacher at KES... I knew he was old but Jesus!

 

[jt64]

Looks like he's scored today in a rout vs Cuba

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

Couple of assists too

 

[Digger]

Scored a good goal after cutting inside. Set up Hirst after another very good run. Can't post the link but check sofascore.
This lad looks very impressive,

Somehow doubt that was a wig unlike another certain Bob Evans...

Goaly goaly goaly goaly goaly goal.

And he won a penalty. So a goal and 3 assists, plus 90 minutes under his belt.

 

[FinchleyBlade]

Won't get tpo

 

[FinchleyBlade]

Only reason he is with us is because of his size, he's a real talent. Reminds me very much of Tonge when he first came through.

 

[Bladeinleeds]

From the limited times/clips I've seen of him he looks to be a really talented young footballer.

Goal and three assists in a first start is very positive too.

Hopefully a full season under his belt next year will do him the world of good! I expect him to shine in league 2.

 

[Gimli]

This kid is going to be a top player for years to come - I just hope it's with us.

 

[Champagneblade]

And he won a penalty. So a goal and 3 assists, plus 90 minutes under his belt.

He also set up the first.

Won't get the assist as he wasn't the penultimate one to touch before the scorer, but set the right full back free with an incisive ball which meant he only had to play a simple ball across goal for a tap in.

Hand in 5 goals. Great effort. Must review in Jan.

The FA website describes him as "the Star of the show".

Got to credit young thirsty though, hat trick not bad at any level.

 

[UnitedBlade]

That no. 18 can play.

He's so beautifully balanced. I hope he isn't another that eventually disappoints but I'd love him to break through for us. Hope he does well at Chesterfield in the first half of the season.

 

[Berlin Blade]

Looks good. You can bet every single one of the 20 Prem clubs will have scouts at the tournament, with it being in France. They will take one look at that game and their eyes will light up when they see he plays for us.

I expect we'll be getting several bids for him before the end of the season, especially if he does well at Chesterfield. If Lookman was worth upwards of ten million, I would say we'd be silly to sell him for less than £6 million, which is absolutely crazy and shows the mental market that football is operating in at the moment.

I have watched Brookes all season with the 23s and to be honest he really is a talent. I think he needs to show his talent week in week out. We must remember that Cuba are 145th in the world but what he did yesterday he has been doing all season.

"Brooks was the star of the show and finally got the goal his performance deserved with a sweet strike on the hour mark."

 

[Blade for Sale]

Not seen this mentioned elsewhere but I believe this team are now in the final, Brooks assisting a goal in the semi. I think it's on Sunday, same day as the U20s final, which could be a day for great optimism for the future of the national side.

Brooks isn't playing in the U20 World Cup in Korea, he's playing in the Toulon Tournament in France

 

[Kenilworth]

How many do you want?

I'll tek one if it says "WANGLAND" on it.

 

[Berlin Blade]

That's weird. So it's like England u20 A team and B team?

 

[Tunstall Fred]

I think the team Brooks is starring in,is made up of 17s,18s and 19s,cobbled together to participate

 

[Foxy]

Brooks' goal currently separates the teams in the final, cracking finish it was too.

Also was brought down on the stroke of half time for a pen.

Wednesday's George Hirst stepped up and the keeper saved.
