Todays Under 18 Player Profile is with Archie McWhirter.
What’s your best position?
“I enjoy playing, and have found the most joy out of, is definitely playing as a striker, it’s a position I love to play in.”
What do you do well, and what could you be better at?
“My best asset as a footballer is probably my shooting and my different range of shots. Also, the power in my shots. Whether it’s a first time shot or dribble past two and finish it top left. One thing I would like to be better at is the heading aspect of my game. I’d like to be more involved when playing against big centre backs!”
Do you have a standards pre-match meal?
“My food of choice is most definitely beans on toast with 2 eggs. Simple but effective.”
Pro-game influence?
“I’d have to say, and it’s quite rogue, but it’s Jamie Vardy. He made his pro debut at the age of 25. Meaning everyone has their own journey and anything’s possible.”
Best player you’ve seen in the Premier League?
“Eden Hazard because he is just pure flair and genius.”
The best shirt I’ve seen in last two years or so?
“The Ajax blue away shirt from 21/22 season.”
Finally, winners. Who wins the Premier League and Championship?
“Bit of a shock, but Manchester United….only because I support them. Championship 24/25 wise, another rouge one…QPR!”
