Who will make it to the Premier League?

Post by The Mindsweep »

Out of current squad, who do you think will play at least 10 games in the Premier League at some point.

Josh Keeley is ready now in my opinion.

I think Ethan Galbraith has the great chance as he is constantly improving.

Jack Currie is so reliable and will shine at any level.

Kelman & Donley are Championship level.

You are deluded.

None of them will get to play (10+ games?) in the prem. Donley, because of his age, could be the only exception.

Keeley is young for a keeper so he may make it but with only one spot and big teams not willing to give young keepers a try then he’ll probably have to go to the championship and get promoted or picked up.

Donley got every chance if he has a good attitude.

Currie and Kelman no chance.

Galbraith, I dunno. I doubt it somehow. Maybe a squad player for a Lowe prem team

Currie's great but unless he goes to a team who get promoted and has some kind of Charlie Daniels style late career bloom, he's not a Prem player.

We thought El Miz was the mutts nuts, but has struggled to make an impression in the Chsmpionship.
Imv Donley could manage Premiership if he continues to progress.
Keeley is certainly not ready yet, decent L1 keeper, needs another season at this level, or possibly Championship, still very young and quite a few aspects of his game need to improve
Currie/Kelman/Galbraith, doubt it.

Keeley? That has to be a wind up. As someone said, perhaps Donley if the stars align. That’s it.

It's possible to love loanees who are clearly good players for us, while not getting carried away and insisting they're 'ready' for the PL, when they obviously aren't.

Donley has a chance. He’ll need a decent season on loan in the Championship next year first.

Keeley is physically too small for Premiership IMO
Same for Galbraith.
Donley will make it, but not with Spurs.
Currie - I'm not sure, if he's with a team that gets promoted, then he will, but I can't see a PL team buying him. .

No to all of the above for being ready next season for the Prem, that's a huge jump.

Keeley will need to bulk up and work on set pieces, should be aiming at a Championship loan next season

Galbraith has earnt a shot at Championship level but as we've seen with El Miz it's a big step up

Donley will likely play in the Prem though needs to shine next season at Championship level as next step up

Currie similar to Galbraith ready for a step up though Oxford's situation could complicate matters

Currie - I'm not sure, if he's with a team that gets promoted, then he will, but I can't see a PL team buying him

Kelman will be interesting where he goes next, he needs to play regular football and have a manager like RW who gets the best out of him. Wish him well wherever he ends up

Pretty much this. Donley should get a championship loan next season and then may be picked up by a prem side.

Keeley needs to work on commanding his box, whether it’s by bulking up or just gain in experience and confidence. Another l1 loan next season and then championship.

Doubt either will play for Spurs.

I think Donley will in bottom half of the prem. Galbraith maybe as a right back, but I doubt it.
