Hey all, a few of you found my previous post about the 2008 FA Youth Cup winners interesting so I thought I’d give you another. Here is the 2006 FA Youth Cup Runners up. We lost 3-2 on aggregate.
GK – Laurence Matthewson – Released in 2007 he seems to have left the game. His LinkedIn profile tells me he's an Area Sales Manager at Your Own Brand
DEF – Curtis Obeng – Did manage to earn at professional contract at City but never featured. Released in 2009 he signed fro Wrexham before moving on to Swansea. A few loan moves to lower league clubs and now finds himself playing Semi Pro for Solihull Motors. An England C cap to his name.
DEF – Shalem Logan - Introduced himself as Robinho in our crossbar challenge on Soccer AM. A utility player who’s primary position is Left Back. Got four loan moves before joining Brentford in 2011 to play under Uwe Rosler. After 3 years he left the Bee’s to head to Aberdeen where he still plays today. Did make 3 appearances for us.
DEF – Sam Williamson – Lot of love for this lad. Made one appearance for us against Portsmouth when we were suffering an injury crises in defence. Came on as a sub for Dunne. Left for non league Wrexham in 2009. By all accounts he seems to have been retired from the game since 2010. No idea what he’s up to now.
DEF – Gary Breen - No not that one. The Kilkenny native was released in 2008 and played for Hereford briefly before returning to Ireland. After spells at Galway and Dundalk he now finds himself at Portadown up in Northern Ireland. Still there.
MID - Ashely Williams – No not that one either. Released in 2007. Very hard to fin info on this lad now but if he is who I think he is, he is now playing for Airbus UK in Wales. Played non-league in England for a while after his release and joined Airbus for his first spell in 2008. Left to play for Chester FC in 2011 before returning to Airbus. Although born in England, he has 2 U-23 caps for Wales.
MID – Paul Marshal - One part of a very highly rated midfield. Often compared to Paul Lake, he was a talented youngster. Won a couple of England under 20 caps and earned a couple of loan move to the championship and league 2. Went on loan again to Aberdeen due to his frustration at not having a chance to break through to the first team. Signed for Walsall in 2010 and slowly dripped down the leagues. Now playing in the 6th tier for Alfreton North
MID – Michael Johnson - It hurts. Amazing player. Not going to go into what he he’s at now. – worth reading devineman’s post here for a summary of what happened.
MID – Karl Moore – A winger who can play on either side, Karl had underage caps for Ireland. One loan move to Milwall was all the professional football he saw in England and he moved back to Ireland after being released in 2010. Like many in the League of Ireland (Where contracts are short as money is tight) he made his way around the league playing for the likes of Shamrock Rovers and UCD before having a very successful time with Bohemians. Now playing for Bray Wanderers.
ST – Kelvin Etuhu – Listed as a Striker at the time. The younger brother of Dickson Etuhu went onto be a squad player for us for a while. He even scored a premier league goal against Bolton. Had loan moves at Leicester and Cardiff before signing for Portsmouth in 2012. He had been released from City in 2010 due to criminal proceeding in relation to a fight outside a casino. He was sentenced to 8 months for the assault. Now playing for Bury.
ST – Daniel Sturridge – One of the most talented to play in our Academy at the time. Won our Young Player of the Season in 2008-09 Wanted more money than we thought a youth player deserved and he moved to Chelsea. Now at Liverpool making sporadic appearances between hospital visits.
Notable Subs
DEF – Micah Richards – A future Captain for us it looked to all the world that we had the country’s best young defender in our ranks. The hype around him was unreal looking back on it. Became England’s youngest ever defender but only managed to win 13 caps in the end. He made nearly 250 appearances for us at either CB or RB and had an entertaining partnership with the Dunnie Monster. He wanted to play CB but consistently found himself pushed out wide where he fell under the shadow of Zaba. Never seemed to live up to the potential and after a disappointing season on loan at Fiorentina he now plays for Villa, where I don’t think they rate him that highly. A disappointing turn out for a great hope but he still won a premier league and an FA cup with us in his 9 and a bit seasons.
FWD – Ched Evans – Broke into the side shortly after Sturridge and was behind him in the pecking order. Finding first team chances limited he moved on loan to Norwich in the championship where he had a great return of 10 goals. Returning to City in the 2008/09 season he made 25 appearances ( mostly as a sub) and scored 1 goal (In that 6-0 thrashing of Portsmouth). During this time he made his first international appearances for Wales. He joined Sheffield United in 2010 for £3 million, He had two modest seasons with them in the championship with a small goal return resulting in their relegation to League One. It was here he enjoyed his best season in football with 35 goals in 42 games for the Blades. Unfortunately this proved to be his last season until 2016/2017 as his much publicised Rape Trial saw him jailed for the next few years. He found it initially difficult to find a club willing to sign him amid much public backlash. Chesterfield gave him his chance and he took it well in the initial first few games for the club scoring 4 in 3. The rest of the season only produced one more goal although to be fair to him, Chesterfield are woeful and find themselves rock bottom of League One. He hasn’t even been in the sqaud since the start of March and I can’t see anything saying he’s injured. Despite this however he’s being linked with a move back to Sheffield United who have torn up the league this season.
MID – Adam Clayton – A bit of a dark horse this one. Never made an appearance for us despite making the bench twice. An England under 20 international, he had a great loan spell at Carlisle which earned him a permanent move to Leeds for an undisclosed fee ( we can safely assume less than £1 million but I’m not sure on the figure.). Leeds loaned him out a couple more times before he earned a move to Huddersfield. He became a very important player for the Terriors, winning their Player of The Year in 2014. This saw him seal a move to Middlesbrough for £1.5 million and he went on to help them win promotion to the Premier League.
MID - Christian Mouritsen – Only noticeable because he’s from the Faroe Islands. Still playing in the Faroe Islands. Has 19 caps for the Faroe Islands. I mean how many kids from the Faroe Islands play in English Academies? Madness.
