New season. so hoping Grbic is given a clean slate and returns this season looking like a suitable number one. He must be better than he’s looked up to now. Just hope fans give him a chance if he plays, not just waiting for an opportunity to get onto him, as he has surely got to have something, to get selected for Croatia and to be signed by Athletico Madrid.

Unless we’re playing a second half side - it seems like half the 12 first team players that we actually have arnt available

No arblaster, Brewster, osula, McCullum, Hamer, trusty, Bogle or that geezer we signed from Leeds.

Highlights there’s a lot of work still to be done though,
 
See United’s website
We are playing two sides 45 minutes for each team.
 
Poor touch from Anel gets challenged and the rebound puts their striker through on goal who finishes well.
 

The Anel/Souza classic there.

Anel jogs forward with ball and gets easily dispossessed.

Souza late to react as York player strolls 1 on 1 with Davies and beats him easily.
 
Anyone seen the pass from Anel no pressure straight out of play 🤦‍♂️.. who is no 39 ?
 
1-1. Good cross by Brooks finds Anel with a header at the back post, matched with a good initial save from the keeper, One follows up at close range to finish with a nice side footed volley.
 
Good finish. Nicely controlled volley on the rebound.

I'm not unhappy so far. Slight mistake from Anel for their goal, but that's to be expected in the first game back. Biggest plus is that we're playing a 4231, and not a back 3. With practice it should allow for more movement through midfield, and greater threat in wide areas. Full backs overlapping + inverted wide players coming inside make it unpleasant for opponent FBs. Can see signs of that already today which is nice.
