useless Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 It's Myles Sohna that's been playing in defence, presumably he's still injured after coming off last week against Wolves. Harrison Sohna is usually more of deep midfielder, albeit has played in central defence for the U18s, official site has him down as wearing the no.3 shirt, so think that he's probably playing left-back today.

OutByEaster? Posted April 9, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 9, 2021 I wonder if no Wesley means he hasn't progressed in recovery or just means they didn't fancy putting him on a bus to London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite right sorry! Been a while since we saw Harrison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Middlesbrough and Reading drawing 1-1, so we're third in the table as it stands. Still a long way to go in both matches though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Barry's the top scorer in our division with twelve goals. Rory Delap is the top scorer in U23 football taken as an whole, with 20 goals. Also worth remembering that Barry missed the start of the season, and then was recently injured again, he also has played a number of games as a winger.

OutByEaster? Posted April 9, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 9, 2021 A quick look through results give me seven goals for Max Thompson - not sure if they're counting goals in lots of different tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Fulham have now taken the lead. Our defence seem very vulnerable at this level immediately after they concede. Edited April 9, 2021 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted April 9, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 9, 2021 I think our defence is vulnerable full stop in all honesty - the big hole in our academy is centre backs - we've got two natural midfielders there today and that's been the case reasonably often. In terms of real, actual centre backs, it's Bridge, Revan Snr and Swinkels - one injured, one out on loan and one not ready. That said, we're still capable of outscoring teams - this one isn't over. Edit: sorry, only one natural midfielders at CB today, the other one at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Raikhy isn't really a DM either, so I don't think having him in front of the back four helps us defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to him, I think he's really come on in that position - he's got a really good knack of nipping in and taking the ball off players, he has good energy and his passing is good. He's a much better player than at the start of the season I think. I think ideally I'd still like to see Bogarde in the holding role. He has a Gareth Barry like ability to take the ball off the defence and turn with it, but it might be a bit harsh on Raikhy if he had to drop out of the side at the moment and I can't see him pushing Chukwuemeka or Ramsey to the bench.
