Rampant Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 1 hour ago, RoyMac5 said: I read this last night after only having watched the first half. We weren't dominant all half at all but had spells after they scored early (5 minutes in). I assumed we'd fell apart and been slaughtered, but I see it ended 1-0. We were much improved after the break and were actually the more likely side to score. With the number of u23's we have in the first team squad it obviously weakens us in this u23 Premier League 2 division. A straight match up between Everton's best u23's and ours would probably see us run out impressive winners. From what I've seen previously and last night I have to question why we released Cameron Cresswell yet retained Cybulski. The former looked to be a much better forward.

In fairness, cybulski is not yet 19 and clearly has some scope to fill out physically Cresswell is pushing 22 and that three years is huge early in the career Im holding out hope for big Bart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Averaged about 1 in 2 last season and I don't recall a single goal with his head... more of a poacher surprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes I didn't think he was a 'big target man', but he's looked nothing at all in the 23s so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We struggled to involve the big man tbf to him but he doesn't appear to be the type of player you slide through balls into. Maybe I'm being too harsh and, as suggested above, he'll kick on over the next year or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it might be the case that we are allowed to promote the U23's into the first team now, but all it will mean is that come January if we're still under embargo that we'd have to sell more players to bring in fresh faces.
