I have a question for any of you that watch the Everton U23 matches. My understanding is that the following young players in our U23 squad will be classed as aged-over-21 next summer and will have to be included in the 25-man full squad in order to be eligible for Premier Legue fixtures: Byrne, Duffus C., Grant, Gray and Jones G.

My question is this:
based on what you've seen of these players, which of them do you think will get in our first team squad, which will be sent out on loan next season for more experience, which will be kept but only for our U23 side, and which will be released?

If I'm being honest I probably haven't seen enough to have a truly informed idea, but from what I do know, I would suggest that Gray and Byrne will not be kept on. Gray hasn't featured this season, and Byrne has been injured quite a bit. The rest will probably be kept on, but loaned out or just kept in the U23s. Gethin Jones is probably the closest to a first team squad slot, but there are a few youngsters in competition with him and he's unlikely to get a place.
