9. DOMINIC GREEN
First Posh goal aged 19 years 02 months 22 days, v MK Dons, September, 27, 2008. A frail-looking winger who was instantly tipped to play Premier League football after moving to Posh from Dagenham & Redbridge. He scored his first Posh goal direct from a free kick in a 2-1 League Two win at MK Dons, but he started just nine Football League games for the club before returning to the Daggers and a career in non-league football. Green's other Posh goal did come against Newcastle in a Championship fixture. Photo: David Lowndes.
10. HARRISON BURROWS
First Posh goal aged 19 years 01 month 22 days, v Burton Albion (pictured), March 6, 2021. A Posh Academy graduate who's been at the club since he was 9. Current vice-captain and first-team regular, scorer of 8 goals in 134 appearances, the first arriving in a 2-1 League One defeat at Burton. Photo: Joe Dent
