So... How did Mo Shariff do?

[Robsondinho]

Played well. Took him 10mins to get into the game then burst into life.

Here's some highlights of Mo's contribution last night. He looks pretty tasty to me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEDMFW4plvM#t=112

I think Harry's doing the right thing, bringing the youngsters in slowly, until they can overlap with the experienced players and eventually - hopefully sooner rather than later in the case of Zamora - replace them.

Do you think it is too early to introduce Peter Skepetis?

[Hubble]

I'd say his time has to come soon, he sounds just about ready to make the step up (and it's great to know we have so many exciting youngsters on our books).


"Skapetis signed a professional contract with Queens Park Rangers on his 17th birthday, after a six-month trial period at Birmingham City.

Since the move he’s enjoyed a rich vein of form for the west-London outfit.

23 goals in 26 appearances for the club at Under-18 and Under-21level is a significant return.

“I’m a firm believer in remaining focused from the first minute to the last,” Skapetis said.

With mental toughness beyond his years, it’s easy to see why the striker has been so impressive.

His strong form prompted the head youth coach Steve Gallen to hand Skapetis the captaincy.

Whilst it’s a role of responsibility he’s delighted to undertake, Skapetis believes his actions speak louder than words.

“I’m vocal although I’d rather lead by example on the pitch through scoring a goal, making a run or taking a shot,” he said.

The former Wesley student vindicated his sentiment, playing a pivotal role in the club’s third successive divisional play-off final triumph.

In the semi-final he scored a dramatic last-gasp winner in the 91st minute against Leeds United.

And again, in the final he struck a sweet penalty kick to ensure a 1-0 victory for Rs."
