U23s, Academy and Loanees

A mixed day today. The U18s did well to scratch their way past a good Leicester team

The U21s tried hard but passed up some good opportunities, losing to 'top of the league' MNU.
Darren Fletcher's 2 sons looked good. As did the Italian striker who got a hattrick right at the end, after our centre back had been very harshly red carded. LWB missed a really good opportunity, one of those where he could either slide it in the far post or an onrushing colleague would score, but he threaded the needle and put it wide.
 
Yang did nowt and was subbed off around the hour, for the returning Murphy, who will take a lot of minutes off Yang. Phillips had loads to do in the Stoke defence, scraping it away from goal by hook or crook. Nearly scored a header. As always, Donley sat on his arse getting frustrated.

@Bullet was it just Byfield that was missing for the U21's
He would be a big miss at the back.

Yeah, Byfield was missing, but it is quite confusing which teams these "top talents" play for nowadays, due to their young age, plus I had to watch both the U18s and U21s simultaneously so my head was spinning.

No Byfield, no Tynan Thompson.
Russell Denny had to play left back.
No Rowswell nor Ashcroft.
Olusesi was carrying the team on his own really.
