Going pretty well!
Barrett got a couple. Promising
I think Barrett just earned himself a possible start on Sat and the Italian gets another two so five in two games....
Jack Hickman released Jordan Ponticelli and he chipped it over the ‘keeper to make it 4-0.
And Ponticelli got his second just before half-time as the ball was played through to him by Dominic Hyam
No mcnulty?Looks like the front 3 for Sat is Barrett, Beavon and JP.
McNulty got put in behind twice on Saturday looking at the highlights, twice at least against Stoke from memory. It does happen. Maybe playing Bayliss at the tip of a diamond midfield would help. Although diamond midfield set ups remind me of ThornWouldn't mind watching them or seeing the highlights to see the style of play.
I can't see it being route 1 like the first team as they don't have a big striker to hold it up, from the commentary it sounds like nice passing football.
How often do we play strikers through or set them through on goal?
Unless we start doing that, it's pointless chucking Ponticelli in as it's not playing to his strengths.
If he starts scoring like he is in the unders we will call him the godfatherI think Barrett just earned himself a possible start on Sat and the Italian gets another two so five in two games....
Agreed. It's like a training match because it is one!U23 games are entirely different to L2 football
Tackles are as rare as hen's teeth
And both teams usually try to play football
In L2 the majority of the teams park the bus and try to nick a goal from a set piece or on the break
Hat Trick
Let's toss in the whole team. Added bonus. We would have a strong benchLooks like the front 3 for Sat is Barrett, Beavon and JP.
MR will start with Biamou and Beavon up front on saturday, you watch!
