The U21 match was a decent watch. It's definitely one of those games where we could be happier with the performance than the result, with us playing the better football throughout. Strangely, it was in the latter stages when we had started to look to tire when we actually got the equaliser.
Winks and Stylianedes played like Dembele and Dier, creating similar shapes with their CB's to the first team. They were always in good positions and Winks dictated play all night. Sonupe, Miller and Onomah tried to do similar to Eriksen, Alli and Lamela although the vertical threat that Alli presents was missing. Miller despite going periods where he was almost anonymous was probably the most dangerous of the lot, finding lots of little spaces around the edge of the box and having little fear in striking the ball. Edwards was decent when he came on, very left footed, almost to the point of being predictable. He did draw a lot of fouls, but was constantly shifting past the man and not going down despite probably having the right to.
So far as first team options go, Winks was the one that looked like he could fit in. He's not got Dembele's strength, but he almost has that Modric-esque ability to just roll his way out of trouble. He's not the quickest but he has that little turn of pace which is enough to get him moving up the field and isn't shy of striking it with either foot. Onomah disappointed me in this game. It might be because UTD sat back nearly all match and it meant that what touches our front players had, had to be of a very high quality in order to create a chance. He did show some good passes and easily dribbled his way out of trouble, but there wasn't enough of it.
