Me too bud

Sorry lads for the first ones not working. I sent another link, it works I checked it, but not very good quality.

 

[M+D]

Coquelin is our new DM :wink:

Seriously though, been impressed by Merida, Coquelin, Szeczezcezezcny and Fonte. Hoyte has done OK as well.

Dunno why we're playing so high up the pitch against Sinclair though.

 

[nazo]

Did the game end yet? The last i've heard is that the score is 1-1

The second half just started a few minutes ago.

 

[Kain]

Just turned the game on an hours gone, anyone stood out so far?

Randall scored, he got slaughtered on here during pre-season, good goal?

 

[TheEmirateDon]

Yes, very good goal, probably beat about 3 Chelsea defenders on his way to goals, before coolly slotting home. Great skill.

S**t. Just as I wrote that Chelsea made it 3-1. Sinclair hammers it into the top right hand corner after some crisp Chelsea play saw them catch us 4 vs 3 at the back.

EDIT: Get in. Rui Fonte makes it 3-2 with a crackajack of a free-kick.

Game on!

Good to read. Lansbury, Murphy and Hoyte forming the spine of the England U-19s in a victory over Holland.

 

[James]

Jay Thomas also imposed himself when he came on, and set up Murphy's second after a great pass from Lansbury. Lansbury also got man of the match.

Barazite has looked superb for Derby today.

 

[Kain]

Yea Barazite was awesome in the last 30 mins i just watched of the Derby game, did everything right, closed down the opposition short passes long passes he barely put a foot wrong, helped Derby to their first league win for a year.

 

[GoonerGurjit]

Our under-18s beat Chelsea 2-0.

Good progress from our youth team.Luke Freeman is our top scorer with 4 goals.

Bright talent for future...

Question for those that get to see our 'other' teams in action (i.e. NOT the seniors, but including the C Cup squad) - do they play the same style & formations as the senior team? I haven't heard of them playing anything other than 442, and I've read reports they use space & pace more than the seniors.

Kerrea Gilbert

To be tried early next year for being drunk and disorderly in Humberstone Gate on September 24th.

He denied the charge when he appeared before magistrates to confirm his name, age and address.

He was released on unconditional bail until January 29th.

They tend to play 4231 like the big boys (except in the CC v Sheff U when they played 442).

So they don't do 451 / 4141 - they don't compromise their attack to 'bolster' their defence. How about when they reach the latter stages of the C Cup v top half PL teams????

U18 side drew 1-1 with Fulham.We went down after 33rd minutes before Benik Afode scored equalising goal from the header, 10 minutes in the 2nd half.

They will up against Norwich at Colney next week.
