Would they be of any more risk of that than they are already? Dunno 🤷🏻♂️ maybe? Most youth players don’t make it, to almost solely rely on them might be too much, or not

They seem to be mixing and matching the squad. Both Sidibe and Dixon came on at HT against France today.
Watched a bit of it, and they both played well. Dixon looked surprisingly comfortable at full-back, and was a bit of threat going forward. Maybe he'll prove to be Tchamdeu's deputy?
Sidibe scored in the shootout, as he has in all three games I think.

Sidibe scored in the shootout, as he has in all three games I think. Suspect Dixon will play RB v Fleetwood with Anderson at CB alongside whichever of the other CB's don't play (or at least start) at Oxford Alternately he could go wing backs with Dixon right of a 3 but more interested to see him at RB again As for Sol he's bound to start that game

Does SS rest players who’ve played this week? Aside from keeper the rest might need recovery time, I know it’s a contentious subject as they’re highly paid athletes but money doesn’t mean rest. Squad depth is as important as ever.

Squad depth is as important as ever. With having a 9 man bench and 5 subs, and a cup game next week against Fleetwood to rotate the squad we've hopefully got enough talent to cover that now.

I'd agree we have to start him, but that being said I hope we manage him correctly.
In years gone by you've seen what a overload of minutes can do to footballers later down the line, he will still be growing ect.
Although he's good enough to start everyweek it's not sensible to put that many minutes into a player that young

Some clowns still think it was the wrong approach and that they'd have done a better job than Guardiola.

Get the longevity out of him then. Although on his current trajectory it wont be long until a big boy comes in and try's get him off us

Yep, been so many examples of young prodigies being overplayed in their teens / early twenties and as a result their career at the top level is done by the time they're 30. Rooney, Owen, Fernando Torres, Robbie Fowler. Even the likes of Micah Richards and Aaron Lennon were the next big thing at 20 only to have run out of steam by their late 20's. Even with us there's a strong argument that Shawcross would've had an extra few years at the top level and avoided all those back injuries if TP hadn't forces him to take painkillers to play through injury in his early career.

3 games in 7 days coming up so would expect maximum rotation & earlier subs
we won away last time
I'd play same midfield v Oxford: Burger, Moran & Bae with all changed for Fleetwood if anyone drops out its Bae who wasn't quite at it at Plymouth until ne moved back wide
If Junho plays wide & Sol comes in Koumas to drop out however given Cannon not started this season Cannon off Koumas on around the hour is probable? .
Alternatively Sol could could start instead of Burger
in a really good place in midfield now, we can take out any one of the 4: Burger, Sol, Junho & Moran & still have really good quality, with 5 subs there's much less issue re starting/being on the bench than used to be the case Seko is an unknown yet, Lawal to come in later on
plus handy cover in Thompson

Has to start against Oxford with Burger and Moran. Why does he have to? He is definitely in the shake up but a lot will depend on his condition when he comes back. If he’s shagged after the travel and matches then we have plenty of options.

He looked good but that doesn't mean he can do it against seasoned pros who are adept at doing things when referees can't see, especially as his stock rises. Trust Schumacher to look after him properly.

Chris Rigg has proven for Sunderland if you're good enough, it doesn't matter how old you are. I think Sidibe has proven so far this season he has all the right attributes to be able to compete at this level so I'd like to see him given more game time.

As soon as Sol gets a run of 3 starts he won’t be a sub again. He’s that good. Understand he’s young and that
He will be our record sale when the time comes.

He needs the right encouragement and patience from the crowd too. The lads going to make mistakes and we need to be ready for it. We've been here before.
Who remembers Florent Cuvelier, Adam Porter, Lasse Sorensen, Ollie Shenton, Thibauld Verlinden, Julien Ngoy, Liam Delap, DWP.
We dont have a great history with young players sadly which is a real shame as we've had some great ones who have gone on to have decent careers elsewhere.
But looking at the current crop. Dixon, Emre, Lowe, Sol, Simkin, Anderson and then Junior, Lawal, Million, Jun ho a bit older. The future is very bright, hopefully some more start to show up in the academy shortly!

I didn't have much hope for any of them to be honest. Sorensen maybe. Sidibe and Tezgel are clearly far more talented.

V thought provoking post, (Slightly off topic of the thread, buuuuut:) Do you reckon that's what happened to Raheem Sterling? He looked unplayable for so long and then suddenly like a League two bench warmer. RE: Sol - Think he does need careful management, balanced against the need to accelerate his development. Look at those players you've listed, they were flames burning twice as bright, just for half as long as your Steven Fletcher's etc.
