Goalkeeper and son of Norwich City legend Bryan Gunn - Angus is 6ft 4 and just 16-years old, he is a commanding keeper with strong wrists and sharp reflexes
-
Tricky, pacey right-back who loves to get forward and bomb on past the winger to deliver telling crosses in the final third. Capped at England youth level
-
Confident goalkeeper who is currently subject to a CBBC documentary about his exploits - huge fan of Mumford and Sons and one of the more eccentric members of the group
-
Libyan-born full-back with good pace and an engine that keeps him going up and down the touchline for the full 90
-
Son of Peter Swan, commanding centre-back George Swan has captained the side in pre-season and scored a wonderful goal in the first friendly in Portugal

Gifted midfielder, pictured on the right, has good passing range and technique - joined from Oldham Athletic last year and signed as first-year scholar this summer

-
Goalkeeper from Tamworth who is a commanding stopper with sharp reflexes, as showcased against Leiria where he pull off a series of smart saves
-
Mentally strong Welsh centre half who cites Vincent Kompany as a role model thanks to his leadership qualities
