The young Reds exited the competition at the group stage following a 4-0 loss away to League One leaders Huddersfield Town on Tuesday night.
Previously, Page's team came from 3-1 down to draw 3-3 at Rochdale and gain an extra point with a win on penalties.
A narrow 1-0 defeat at Doncaster Rovers followed.
Due to games being played during international breaks, the U21s head coach has handed opportunities to younger players in the tournament, and he expects the experience of facing senior professionals to be a positive for their future careers.

**On the overall display at Huddersfield…**
I thought there were a lot of positives. This is development football and we were playing a League One team who are top of the table and who played their best XI. They went out of the FA Cup on Saturday and don't have a game this Saturday. They put out their strongest team against us and we had three or four players missing, with Will Wright on international duty.
I told the players after the game that if they want to progress and play league football they need to have that ruthless mentality. If you start the game like we did, gifting them a goal after 40 seconds, it's a tough enough battle anyway, but especially against a team top of the table. Their three goals in the first half came from having a ruthless mentality. That's why these games are so good, because our lads have to learn from that. It was just that final third that let us down a little bit, that final pass and that final execution.
**On the overall experience of playing in the Jersey Mike's Trophy this season…**
You look at our form this season and we've only lost once in Premier League 2 and that was West Ham away when they scored a late goal from a cross that went straight in our goal. As coaches we have to be level-headed and not get emotional. The manner of the defeat at Huddersfield I will accept because the work-rate of the lads and effort was incredible. Michael Laffey wearing the armband again was incredible, and I can never ever fault their effort and work-rate. I said to the boys, in this competition we need to be a bit more streetwise, especially with the early goal we conceded and then other moments that led to the other goals. That will make us better and also better individually.
**On the scheduling of the tournament…**
I understand the principle of this competition and we want to expose our lads to league opposition, of course we do, but it's so frustrating that we have to play these games during the international break. That is why I will never have a go at these lads. Some of those lads in the Huddersfield team have been playing at this level for years and they are the top scorers in League One. It's hard to ask our young players to go out and have a level fight because it's not even, but it is what it is and we are not going to cry about it. It's still good learnings for them.
**On the return of left-back Clae Ewing, who has been out of action since April…**
Clae was very good and it was nice to see him back. It's important to get those minutes again after a long period out.
**On not having a Premier League 2 fixture until November 28 and only two league games before Christmas…**
We are going to organise some friendlies because we need to keep the players sharp and people like Clae need the minutes. We also still have the Youth League games, which eight of our U21s team are in. We also play Paris FC at home in December so there are some good competitive games to look forward to.
