Ange Postecoglou admits two Spurs academy starlets have ‘really stood out’

Ange Postecoglou has been speaking to the press about the young players at the club, and had lots of positive things to say about Jamie Donley and Alfie Dorrington. 

The Tottenham Hotspur squad is full of talented players right now, and they are flying high at present. Ange Postecoglou remains unbeaten in the league since taking over at the club.

While the current crop of players may be doing their bit to try and get the club on the path to success, that doesn’t mean there isn’t one eye on the future at Spurs.

Currently, two of the hottest prospects at the club are out on loan. Dane Scarlett is trying his best to break into the first team at Championship pacesetters, Ipswich Town, while Alfie Devine is a division lower, with Port Vale.

Meanwhile, still at the club, two youngsters are starting to catch the eye of the first-team boss.

Postecoglou likes Dorrington and Donley

Speaking to the press (via Football.London), Postecoglou was asked about the progress of both Alfie Dorrington and Jamie Donley. 

He said: “With the young guys like Jamie, he’s been doing really well with the U21s consistently. Jamie and Alfie Dorrington have really stood out and that’s why they’ve been training with us. 

“They’ve got to keep working and it doesn’t mean they’re ahead in the pecking order of people like Alfie Devine and Dane Scarlett who are out on loan. I’ve been really pleased with Jamie and Alfie though, they’ve been working well.”

Spurs Web Opinion

I am really excited about the young talent we have at the club right now, mainly because it feels like Postecoglou will actually give them an opportunity in the first team.

I would be very surprised if we don’t see the likes of Donley and Dorrington called up for some game time at some point this season.
