Millenniumram Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Seems like they're all ready for the first team with a capitulation like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had the advantage of being able to sub a couple of pairs of fresh legs on after 75 minutes, we'd been forced to make 2 subs by half time and yet we still should have won it with some better finishing.

Carnero Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Good game, but as we lost I'm a little disappointed that they didn't pipe in a crescendo of booooos over the tannoy to help get them first team ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottsRam77 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Really good that the u23's get some airtime, and a good game to watch with lots of positives shame we couldnt make it 3 when we had the chance but to then lose it 3-2, well it wouldn't be the club we all love would it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horizon Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Only saw the last 20 mins but Zanzala looked decent and Luke Thomas could be the Jamie Ward replacement we never got Looked like the opposite of the first team, dangerous going forward but shaky at the back. Could've easily won the game by the sounds of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram59 Posted August 14, 2017 Author Share Posted August 14, 2017 Far more entertaining than Saturday. A little more composure in front of goal would have resulted in a victory. Great to see how the youngsters are progressing. Bird definitely one for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 There are a few players I wouldn't mind throwing in the deep end. Elsnik would offer more intent than Butterfield and Bryson. Zanzala and Gordon would be far more effective than Johnny Russell. Forget promotion, it realistically isn't going to happen any time soon without chucking serious money at it, start blooding some of these youngsters.

Every time I see Elsnik play, the more I'm convinced he's ready to make the step up. I'd definitely be looking to start him against Grimsby.

With a bit of luck a couple midfielders will come down with a stomach bug the day of the Grimsby game. Remember James Bailey getting injured early on in a season and a very young Jeff Hendrick coming on to replace him, the rest is history but young players need that chance!

Ramant62 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Not sure about Zanzala on todays showing. Just felt his control and decision making let him down, however, Elsnik showed some class touches today and surely can't be overlooked for much longer. We need some of his slide rule passes, unfortunately we also need someone to run on to the end of them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We'll be back in 81 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 I went to this one as did hundreds of others. I was impressed by Callum Guy at left back and Alex Babos in midfield and the goalkeeper Josh Barnes played well, very good long accurate kicking. I saw Eric Steele, Paul Simpson, Gareth Southgate, John Barton, Kevin Phillips, Rory Delap and the Qatar national team there. Look forward to going next time.

Gave you a like but it was Calum MacDonald at left back - moved to CDM when Bird got injured. Good player, though. Callum Guy still out, I'm afraid.

Rab a dab doo Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I thought the young lads gave a very good show of themselves. With a bit of luck we could have easily beaten a very strong and experienced Arsenal side.It was a shame about the injury's which seemed to disturb us after we had been on top. If they keep playing like this they should be comfortably clear of any relegation worrys this year. There's definite promise for the future with a number of players in our side.
