Country: Iceland
Our academy is strong right now and hopefully we can get a couple of players up to the first team!
Saka is the one Ornstein mentioned as our big talent and Saka is also the one who I've been big on since last season. Didn't expect him to get the call up to the seniors this season which tell he is rated very very highly by coaches that are all wiser than us.
About Nketiah, I don't understand people who say he lack technical ability. He has demonstrated this two games he has played this season that he has it all, technical and even dribbling ability, he works harder for the team than Auba and Lacazette combined, he can link up and moves well. The only thing missing so far is his biggest ability at under age levels and that is scoring goals. That will come naturally for him with more game time.
About Willock then he has been our best player at u23 level, we are talking about a total domination not just in terms of physicality like some who don't watch u23 games think but also positional and tactical terms. He is full of energy, press, wins the ball and drives teams forward. And he hasn't been that bad in the two final games in the EL. He scored goal and while he could have done better attacking wise in the second game he played he was defending very well and pressing very well.
I'm very excited by the wealth of talent we are seeing from the academy!
