Angus Eve don't like foreign born players, this kid may never get call up.
He look like a good prospect.
I believe he believes that the foreign born players do not bring any major advantage in skill than what he sees locally. So he primarily gives the local players a nod. What he doesn’t see and he himself has lost touch with, is the experience and level of professionalism that the foreign born national representatives acquire from training, playing in a larger , more competitive environmental football pool.
Something that may not be evident in a step1- camp or trial setting, but actually readily on display in an actual meaningful game. Unfortunately, very difficult to get past step 1.
So he BIAS 
if someone is unaware of something they are ignorant of or make choices based on the only information they have, sometimes based on what is in front of them and/or presented with (camp), one shouldn’t accuse them of being ‘Bias’. Given his position we hope sooner than later he is eventually blessed with the vision that will increase his - and ours - chances of success. We really don’t know if alternate choices would or would not ensure success. No matter what some of us believe. 🙏
Maxg he is unaware eh
..If fact with no local football he should be looking at eligible options.
I agree, note, I know he is aware of the players, but he is unaware of what they can bring. Usually, that's what there are exhibition games and scouting is for. Yet in those vvery few games they are rarely given a full runout. Something that I think TF tried, against the wrong team and obviously limited instructions. We shouldn't have a totally foreign, but a couple in key positions and involved in training may prove to be encouraging, developmental and beneficial. Yet, these days there is very little opportunity for anything of the sort, not only financially - it cost to invite a trialist even if previously scouted - but just to attract the quality available few for a few days prior and away from their club. If they that good the club rarely cares to release. Many might be of the opinion that even if invited, it's for practice fodder.
Fyzo, not necessarily, the Ntl prospects are probably training and would be scrimmaging. besides the finance issues.
Regardless of what, I hope the best Team is selected and Eve is successful in his decisions, choices and charges. Everything learns and adapts, most of the time.
