City EDS vs United U21s On TV Tonight

[blue b4 the moon]

Good passing performance there are signs of the holistic approach. We could just do with finishing moves off. Special mention to Fofarna.

It is also strange that the commentators on rag TV were less biased against us than Sky.

who was the city no.5 , left sided centre half? Looked promising,

That was Denayer mate.

Well done lads. Some good defending and kept possession well towards the end to see the game out.

----------------------------------

Plummer (LB) - came on too late

Ntcham (LW) - came on too late

Lawlor MOTM for me made some excellent saves but also looked comfortable with the ball at his feet.

Denayer very good once again, he really is superb at playing the ball out from the defence.

Huws also looked decent playing just in front of the centre backs, kept the ball and did some great long range passes.

Thought everyone played well really, its amazing how all the layers look comfortable in this new system after only 6 months. Imagine the u12s in 7 or 8 years.

They were very fair, to be honest. Praising a lot of our lads and even had some knowledge about them. They had a soft spot for Huws, too.

Apart from that, they sounded like some annoying pricks, of course. :)

I can see him making the grade, along with nastasic and rekik, some promising centre halves for the future.

Good game. Lots of potential... Denayer looks like a real player on the ball, curious how good his defending is? only saw the 2nd half and he didnt do whole lot in that respect. Huws played well, think he's a real solid player but not sure if he'll ever have enough to make it to our first team. Fofana still looks extremely raw. And although ntcham only played for 10, I liked the way he looked a lot, tbh. Bytiqi and cole were both decent tonight

Have to say that the commentators are very fair.

Great to see that City have a style of play. You can see the benefits of all levels playing in the same way.
