yeah clearly above League 1 level, I'd like to see Golding showing the same given what we signed him for

pretty sure that was just a PSR fiddle

he was still very highly rated, to be fair to him he's playing in a wide role tonight, might not be his best fit

[Webbo]

Some neat ( and some shockingly bad).play there but weve not made their keeper make a save. 

On that half alone, I'd say Golding is a better prospect than Alves.

After watching 45 mins of him tonight …..

I can confirm it was

subs just before the hour, Evans for Golding and Wormleighton off for Monga

[Collymore]

This is crying out for Monga now.

3-0 to them 

they’ve put out 6 teenagers 

Odd moment from alves but non of them look like there close to the first team 

[Mark]

Monga looked great whenever he got the ball, Evans was always a threat too

[Webbo]

I think we have to accept that some of our youngsters are a bit over hyped.

There are still some players in the u21s never going to make it here not helping, the likes of Cartwright and Pennant should have moved on by now

Pennant certainly on tonight's performance.

Ended up being a pretty “standard” game in this competition in the end

 

The academy teams never really do much in this competition, it is pretty pointless really

[GingerrrFox]

The way Monga at 15, was running past League 1 defenders is mad.

Except 3 of them were also academy players

But Alves should start

That's what I love about this club - we teach the same philosophy through all the age groups.
