He's One Of Our Own, no not that one.....

[Very Proud (AKA Still Proud)]

Just watched the video below and wanted to share it, think this lad has a real future with us and didn't look out of place on Tuesday, a goal and an assist on his debut was not a bad start at all. Well done Nathan

Nothing better than a local lad who makes it to the first team.

A real breathe of fresh air. You can tell he genuinely loves Wolves

You know, we've seen so many home grown forwards and they generally tend to be either too lightweight, or did well because they were big in their age group, or had the attributes but were too slow. I think this lad has all the right components. I know it was Blackpool but he was up against some big defenders who had ruffed up Fabio and Sasa and did well.

I think he has the ability, brain, pace and physique to do well. Not just based on Tuesday but from what I've seen in the U23 games too.

Looks a good player. This article in The Athletic suggests he grew up in Tettenhall and attended Thomas Telford School.

How Wolves are setting good foundations for the future

Roberts (from Brownhills, Walsall) took on the United defence like a possessed bull. Nathan Fraser (Tettenhall, Wolverhampton) came close to adding to his recent run of five goals in six games. Captain Tipton (Penn, Wolverhampton) stepped into midfield from centre-back with aplomb after a formation change, effortlessly spraying balls around.

Centre-back Kandola (Tettenhall), one of a handful of players of Asian descent contracted to a Premier League or EFL club, has played for the under-23s this season, as have wing-backs Lembikisa and Aaron Keto-Diyawa (both from London) and the aforementioned Griffiths, a big, physical presence in midfield, as well as Singapore-born Birtwistle, who has quite a backstory.

Dutch defender Justin Hubner and Icelandic keeper Palmi Arinbjornsson were signed just before Brexit rules came into effect and the club have high hopes for both. Ty Barnett is out injured but has made good progress since Wolves signed him from Birmingham in 2019.

They have always been a physical group, but Wolves’ coaches have placed a big emphasis on improving their technical games in the past two years.

Great kid and attitude

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

I thought he looked great when he came on. Very impressive.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

I keep saying it but I really like the look of him. Very good talent deserves an opportunity this season. He knows where the net is.

Brilliant love it

 

[Wolf 82]

Good lad Nathan.. hopefully the first of many in our first team colours.

 

[StaffordWolf]

What a debut for an 18 year old, proper example to his peers of how to take your chance when it comes along.

Got a feeling we will be seeing more of him in the not too distant future.

 

[WalsallWolf]

I called it about 2 years ago, created a thread because I know Tyler Roberts so have had some insights into that age group - from very early on Nathan Fraser has been the absolute standout of that group, he has a really good chance if he continues to work hard.

Thought he played for Trysull as a kid?

My Dad grew up in Trysull and Seisdon

 

[SuperGran]

Hope he stays with the first team and doesn’t go on loan think he’ll get games and goals

Depends on what happens before the end of the window surely. If no one else comes in then l absolutely agree. If he's fourth or fifth choice though then a loan might be beneficial.

 

[SilverstoneWolf]

Seems a nice humble lad. Let’s all hope he pushes on & becomes a top player … for WOLVES!

How refreshing, he seems a really nice guy. I was told yesterday he played for Trysul Tigers

He did play for Trysull

From a Tiger to a Wolf

 

[Alex Rae The Substitute]

Nothing better than a local lad who makes it to the first team.

Particularly one that (hopefully) becomes a top class striker. Followed by centre backs.

These seem to be the youth squad to pro level positions that excite (me anyway) the most.

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Hopefully be on the bench this season

Protect this lad. Really like the look of him from bits of saw in the u23s and pre-season.

Fantastic. I was instrumental in setting up Trysull Tigers all those years ago. We had to go to a league meeting at Dudley FC one evening to put in our application. Up until then we, as dads, were taking local kids to other teams like Ettingshall. Given the facilities we had at Trysull, (I lived in the village at the time). it made sense to start the club. We started with an under 10s and an under 12s. I had a son in each side (they're both now in their 40s). I now live in Scotland, but like to read or hear about the club.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

For all the money spent in the premier league it is always nice to see a home grown lad make the grade.

 

[Stourport wolf]

You can't see him refuse to train, because he has an offer to go somewhere else. A level headed character, who works hard and is an attribute to our great football club. Well done Nathan, become a legend for the Old Gold and Black.

 

[Will Wolf]

Played well when he came on, hope to see him make a PL appearance in the near future.
Good luck Nathan
