I think so all I ever do is wave and drive in, so it must be, I only know George am not family but I try watch him as much as i can. I think it was a bit hard out on the pitch this evening for the lads, the side they played were not the best but they seemed to struggle a bit, may be start of season thing. George was very vocal, scored from the spot near the end of the first half, he ran from the half way line when the ref blew for the pen, you could see it was him that was taking it, and no other player so nice to see that he is confident. He also made the second goal after some neat footwork in the box and then laid it off to be fired home, but overall still not at his best he will need to do better to make the big jump up to the first team, but when he is on form he would not look out of place even at his young age, he does not turn 18 until next year so plenty of time. Some other lads looked quite good like the lad from OZ Jake playing at the back, but a this thread is about George so I will stick with that. Sorry forgot to say the lads won 2-1

He is playing for the under 18's today at finch farm against a Nike 11, kick off is 5 pm I think but not too sure so check if you think about going to see. He will also play on Saturday at finch farm for the under 18's, the under 21's have no games and they want him to get match fit that's why he is dropping down, but If it is like last season he will play through a range of age groups. Well hope some of you get to go see him for the first time at one of the games.

Yes he played at forest on Sunday for the under 21's did not have one of his better games, but nor did many of the others, but they will need to get back up to match fitness. He did not go to Sweden he picked a bug up while he was in Austria. I am hoping he will get much more play time this year then you will all get to see what the hype is about, or if he can do at the top level. Sometimes he gets played down the wings but he is best played in the hole which seems to be where he gets played most of the time, small but like I said he is bulking up a bit now and gets stuck in, he wont pull out of a 50/50. I hope you all get to see a lot more of him this season.

It was nice to see Martinez at the under 21's game today down at forest, it seemed to give the lads a boost knowing he was watching.

I wish I was his dad.

My first time on here, hello to you all, I know George well, and see him most weeks, and just to let you all know that he is progressing well. He is small but so is Messi, he is getting much stronger and I would hope to see him progress well under Martinez. Is he Gazza or Rooney ? no he is George Green, and the hype put around him when joined from Bradford is justified, he has a lot of talent, very quick feet, great balance and a left foot to die for, and if he was in a lower division I think he would have made the first team by now. Been in the prem is always going to be much harder to break through, and at the moment Everton have a much stronger squad than when Rooney broke through. The one thing I will say is he does have the ability to be a world beater, go to finch farm and watch him to make your own minds up, he is not the run of the mill 17 year old. I think we may see him at some point this season maybe a cup game, and when you do, sing his name loud and proud to spur him on. I will do my best to keep all you TOFFEES up to date with how he is doing, he is a great young lad with a great talent, keep faith in him, he is a star of the future.
