Good to see Bapaga back. No Kastsneer, maybe he will be on the bench again, against Blackburn Rovers

 

[AOM]

Hopefully Hilssner can break into the first team soon with getting all these minutes

Good to see Bapaga back. Based purely on pre season he seems the most likely to challenge for an AM slot out of him, Hilssner and Kasta.

(note, I am not writing Hilssner off, just saying Bapaga looked better in preseason).

1-0 Bapaga

Sometimes I dont think we use the U23 enough properly in terms of fitness and sharpness.

I know we have a game tomorrow but if we arranged it for Weds we could have let Baka / Biamou / Kastaneer all get some minutes.

As it stands, if people don't get on for the first team they generally sit on the bench a lot.

It’s an away game we don’t get to decide when it’s played

After this game the remaining u23 games for the rest of the season will be played on a Monday or Tuesday

Good to see Jobello also making a comeback he could be a very handy super sub

Hilssner scores a free kick 2-0

You would think, if they are fit, that they will bring off Bapaga & Hilssner soon as they will be needed on the bench as alternatives to Allen & O'Hare.

I suspect if they were close we wouldn’t be playing them.

True, but there is no one to cover at present... If Bapaga is playing then his shoulder must be good and he is young enough to be fit enough.

Nah, in off the post.

The fact Bapaga, Jobello & Hilßner are playing here whilst Kastaneer & Biamou aren't would suggest the 3 of them still aren't quite ready for the first team yet.

won 3-0

Time for young to step up

 

[AOM]

Are there usually video highlights for the U23 games?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

He played at least 70 mins today and that’s with the club having just Kastaneer in reserve. Really needs a loan spell somewhere to find a permanent home

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Not anymore. Sometimes the players upload their goals though

 

[KG7]

Where was Wesley playing today? Anyone know? Wondered if he might be a decent option at RWB but looking at the names on the team sheet, probably not there - or in the two behind the striker either.

Great to see these 3 key attacking players back.

 

[stupot07]

It will be interesting to see which makes the bench first, i would imagine Bapaga is slightly ahead of them given the performance pre injury.

What the fuck is that aspect ratio?

Filmed through a face mask I think

You want to full screen it (unless you already are)

I am. What I want to do is watch it in landscape like it was shot but someone’s made it portrait for no apparent reason

Don’t mean to sound ungrateful, appreciate seeing some U23 action.

Cheers got it. The option wasn't obvious. Not to build him up too much but he is an exciting option for us I think.

Bapaga is gonna be some player

Bapaga could well be on the bench after that goal

 

[Mcbean]

Could see the blue things moving left and right not sure about the ball - good effort

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Is Hilsner goal available to watch anywhere?
