dyslexic nam Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 He seems to have fallen off the radar at SU. He went from some sub appearances, to being nailed to the bench, to not making the 18 today. He doesn’t seem to be injured so it looks like he has just lost his spot. Not encouraging. Along with Kone losing his starting spot (and not looking like he is getting on the field today), it has been a rough patch for our guys in the Championship. king1010, Jack1997 and jhoops__ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frmr Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) Just for a little context regarding the risk of Jebbison getting called up to England's senior team: Ivan Toney has just earned his first England cap at the age of 27 in a season where he has 16 goals in 24 PL games. Last year he had 12 goals in 33 in the PL, and the year before that he had 31 goals in 45 games in the Championship. I think it's fair to say that the gap between what would constitute a Canada call-up and what constitutes a senior England call-up is absolutely massive. I've been saying this for a year or two now but Jebbo is 100% going to play for Canada, just a matter of when.

This way he can continue to get minutes with England youth teams while he's still on the bubble with Canada, but that would still give him time to cement his place with Canada before WC2026.

I think I’m fine swapping him for Ugbo at this point. also, how is it that Jebbison was able to get his hand tattooed during a season?? Kid misses like two games and comes back with a serious piece on his hand. Feel like you do that in the off-season, since you can’t really run around with an exposed, swollen hand during a 90 minute game, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just all part of the pyramid. The sole difference is the age group. U21 is players 23 and younger. It is above the U20 team. If a player is eligible for both, but good enough (ahead of development) they would put them on the older team. Rico Lewis the 18yo RB at Man City is an example. Jebbi isn't better than Balgoun, Gibbs White, Palmer, or Madueke. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the U20 team would be the one sent to the WC since FIFA doesn't do "U21" or U19" like UEFA. maccaliam and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't sure if U20 was the "reserves" for the U21 of sorts. Yeah Jebbo is way below Balogun. Balogun is 3 goals behind David in Ligue 1, there's probably a smaller gap between Balogun and the senior team than there is between Jebbison and him. Glad that we don't have to deal with what the US is with Balogun, that's a player you don't want to slip between your fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzi44 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Balogun is as American as David. The US don't really have much of a claim on either, so can't be too upset if they play for their actual home nations. Ivan and NVsoccer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both surprised Southgate hasn't called him into the main squad but also not surprised as it's almost a rule to not pick players outside of the big 6, let alone out of the country. Toney is likely soon to be banned so also a bit weird he is picked. I expect Balogun will return to Arsenal and feature next year. They would be crazy to sell him.

CanadaFan123 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 England can also be aggressive with cap ties as we’ve seen with Tomori. Balogun is doing a little too well but they had similar battles with Dest and Musah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 As mentioned on the Abroad thread, Sheffield United through to semi-final of the FA Cup without Jebbison seeing the pitch.
