Yep. Played us off the park this first half.

Identical goal to the one their first team scores every game.

Haven't watched any youth football this season.  Surprised at how clueless we seem at times especially trying to work the ball out from the back, seemingly we just hit and hope after being penned in over and over.  Going to assume it's just a bad half.

Work the full back/winger around the back line for a cut back.  Was still near post and not a great angle but it was low and hard with no pressure on the attacker.

1-0 HT

Yikes.

We are second-best just about everywhere across the park. Actually, it's hard to tell re: Glatzel and Duncan because they haven't gotten the ball.

I think the main problem is that our midfield looks absolutely exhausted. None of them can run, they're just walking whenever it's not absolutely necessary to run and it makes City look amazing by comparison.

We keep getting into this situation where our fullback has the ball, and he looks to break forward or pass it inside somewhere. Only there's no pass to be made, a City player is in between him and the centre back and he's being closed down by two players. Here's where you need a Wijnaldum making run after run in the centre just to find the space between the defenders to offer an outlet. Instead the fullbacks are having to blast the ball blind down the wing and we lose the ball. Must have happened a dozen times that half.

Larouci is coming out of this with some credit. Apart from that, nothing. Our only chances have been when their keeper gave us the ball in the box and then off a massive deflection.

But like I said, a possible excuse is that we look very, very tired. I just feel sorry for our midfielders at this point, Sharif and Dixon-Bonner look like they're playing against the first-team or something, they're just not remotely at the level tonight of the City lads.

I've not watched any youth football for about 4 or 5 years. It's quite hard to impress though when your super narrow against a team that wants to constantly stretch the play. I know its development etc but our system doesn't really seem to be beneficial against theirs

They play with a lot of width, too, just like the first team.

Thought the scorer was given far too much room - for once, by Rhys Williams. Sharif has been disappointing, giving the ball away cheaply. Clarkson has looked good.

Got more pissed off at that goal than I probably should have but I'm sick of the fucking sight of these pale blue shirted wankers this season.

Just do us all a favour and fuck off back to oblivion, cheating bastards.

They're financially doped at all levels lets not forget. Here's hoping for a tactical switch at half time and a bit more of a foothold in the game. We have the players to cause them problems.
So bloody what? If you watch football to be absolutely miserable then go watch cricket.

I've seen us beat them plenty of times at all levels but this season they've proper pissed me off.  It's like no other fuckers getting a look in.

Glatzel has had three openings and fluffed them all. He looks knackered, and their no. 4 has had his number all night so far.
