Anyone seen the U21s?

[Bergen Blade]

Can anyone comment on their style of play? Anything noticeable different from the first team's tactics?

 

[stannyblade]

we scored in the last game. That's different

Yes the tactics are awful hoofball since Morgan took over which may explain why some of our more talented youngsters who were brought up with a passing game e.g. Whitehouse and Kennedy appear to be going backwards in terms of progressing into the 1st team.

I went against pigs and we played some good stuff ,we went 2 _0. Up but drew 2_2 not hoof ball we played down the wings a lot callum Macfadzean ,Diego,ironside stood out but I'm afraid not much talking and instructions came from the bench which ws supprising morgs was quiet but good look to morgs I'm hoping he plays porter and ironside and Mac on left or at left back ,he played left back against pigs hope they sack kitson aswl he is so unfit fat and shit .

An impressive mix of mis-spelling, text jargon, random punctuation and drivel.

Have you tried TILD? You could go far.

I don't like you anymore .

I don't like you anymore .

That means you once did! I'm flattered and astonished. I don't like me half the time either. I once refused to join an exclusive club on the grounds that they would accept someone like me as a member.

There record isnt that impressive from what i can see. However i hope he somehow manages to get us over the line.

Its hard to judge based on his results for the U21s because of the infrequent games and not knowing what side he will likely have available due to first team committments etc.

More interested in the style we will play in, I just worry that the squad don't have the ability to play any other way

It's a terrible record since the start of the year.Is that due to Morgan's management or are the U21s just a poor bunch.

I wouldn't worry too much about U21 results. It is all about identifying and bringing on the players that can play first team football which are: Diego (cruelly robbed of him for the run in) Ironside (good cameos but yet to score a first team goal) McFadzean (should be used for impact but maybe even a start on Saturday)

Whitehouse will be good enough but he didn't start playing until the New Year, his season wrecked by injury.

We don't have a big squad so they are blooding some of the first years, a bit early to tell how good they are. Also the rules allow for 3 over age players plus a goalkeeper. So, for example, we lost heavily to Huddersfield Town away but they had 4 seasoned professionals playing and we only had Marcus Williams . It can be quite uneven.

When I've watched them, my impression has been they've tried to pass the ball not hoof.

Some people may be in for a shock when they observe Morgan, he mostly doesn't bawl at them and can stand, arms folded observing, which is partly what coaching is about. However, it is different at first team level but we won't be privvy to pre-match, half time or the final debriefing.

As the cliche goes, once they cross the white line it is actually up to the players
