MWARLEY2 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Absolutely smashed to pieces 2-5 by West Ham . With our 2 best central defenders starting. We are struggling to get any consistency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Before today's game West Ham were top of the league fifteen points clear of second placed Spurs and twenty-four points clear of us, so was expecting a very tough game, not sure why West Ham are that good, could be that they're playing players that really should be playing at U21 level. Seems we fielded what we thought might have been a stronger defence to keep the score down but obvioulsy that didn't work, although scoreline might have been worse had we played the usual U18s. This is actually the sixth time that Smith has started for the U18s this season in the league, and in all but one of those six games they've conceded three or more goals, so today even with him and Feeney playing still looked a difficult game, unless Feeny was going to make the difference by himself. Smith and Kerr probably played this game also with Tuesday's FA Youth Cup tie in mind, give them some practice with the players they will likely be playing alongside in that game, but if we're to have any chance could probably do with having Simpson, Kadan Young, and Wilson available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) I hope we're able to put out a decent side on Tuesday, Simpson, Lynch, Moore, and Wilson didn't play over the weekend, Wilson didn't play last weekend either, Broggio was injured before Christmas don't know if he's back yet, him and Lynch might not have been involved anyway as still U16s, but they have mostly been playing with our 18s, so would be in contention, especially if we had a few injuries. Patterson and Burchall big enough misses as it is, not sure what's going on with Patterson's injury, he hasn't played since last season, yet another one of our youngsters out for a lengthy spell, hopefully back soon. Would be good if Kadan Young is allowed to play as well, I guess that's up to Emery. Edited January 15, 2023 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messi11 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) What a side we've put out! If we put this out everyweek we would probably win the u18 PL. Watch us lose to Southampton now Edited January 17, 2023 by messi11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 This game won't be easy, Southampton team looks strong, Kamari Doyle, Tyler Dibling, Dominic Ballard, Jimmy-Jay Morgan, Jay Meghoma all highly rated, a lot of their team already playing at U21 level and doing well, Chelsea paid £1.5m for Dibling in the summer, Newcastle wanted him as well, only went back to Southampton because he couldn't settle at Chelsea, our team looks strong as well but truth be told I think they might be slight favorites, one this is for sure it's going to be a lot tougher than the Brentford game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyClarke Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) Southampton well on top, the Villa team and the midfield in particular look very lightweight. Southampton number 10, Tyler Dibling absolutely bossing it, only 16 as well. Edited January 17, 2023 by AndyClarke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Agree re: Dibling - looks a real prospect. Been most impressed with Kellyman for us. None of them look ready for senior action, though. All look their age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Getting a real schooling now from Southampton. We dont have the midfield needed to control a game. 2 years ago we had Raiky Chuk and AJ along with Lindley in the central areas. We are just a team of individuals today who have lost their individual battles. Shame but thats knock out football for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
