Evans not in the squad for tomorrow then. Suppose it makes sense with Ramsey & Monga back

A shame as I think he should be on the bench

 

We clearly aren’t going to use Carranza who is now our only other striker

[Smooch85]

1-0 Richards, Evans assist 

[Smooch85]

2-0 Otchere, neale assist 

[Smooch85]

3-0 Omobolaji

[Noahfence]

Otchere seems to be doing well recently 

[Noahfence]

Riley Carr won the penalty, looks a real handful. 
 

Evans appeared to be playing on the right?

Popov seems to have a really nice weight of pass on him for a striker.

He was doing really well at u18 level a few years ago and then was out injured a while

I know he didn't play much in league 2 with Barrow but id much rather see those quick passes from Popov in the first team than Ayew screwing up every counter attack and holding onto the ball for fouls.

Under 18s are currently 3-1 up at half time away against Norwich

 

Adedeji (penalty)

March

Hutchinson

[Noahfence]

How is Hutchinson still playing u18 football

Scandalous, I really want to get someone experienced in the set up to try and explain the thought process. 

[studentofthegame]

U18s 6-2 up now, March and Hutchinson both scoring a second each and Owusu scoring too

The new technical director needs to bring in a new academy director to work alongside them.

 

Hopefully the new technical director isnt as shy and communicates with the fan base.

Crazy goal and assist from Hutchinson for the u18s the other day. You cant convince me that Ayew is better than this.

 

He got 2 goals and 2 assists in total but havent seen clips of the other two.

This kid looks like he’s got so much talent. He’s 17 right?

[Rubbersoul]

Amani Richards surely going out on loan in January? Just turned 21 and had a pretty good first half of the season.
