Is it just me or even at this level, do all of the frees seem to be awarded one way.
Seems the same sort of challenge going for one team and not the other.

2-1 direct route. Excellent ball from Garcia.

Completely effing well forgot this was on - thanks for the thread and the reminder that it was on ITV 4 or I'd have missed it completely. I need to start tattooing stuff like this on the inside of my eye lids.

Slow start, but that was a great response from the youngsters.
They are a talented bunch and there is no doubting the skill of of Brahim Diaz and Manu Garcia. I've always liked what I've seen of Nemane when I've seen him and I don't think he's disappointing tonight either. Tosin looking very good.
Really enjoying this.
Let's hope they keep it up second half.

It's as bad as when the first team are in action. We're 2 goals up and all I heard at half time is about Steve Gattings masterplan to get Arsenal back into it. The commentator was Tyleresque at the start of the second half, painting the picture of how we'd crumble if Arsenal got an early goal in the second half. Yeah, pretty much like we did in the first half eh?.

ref is shit, Arse should have had a freekick there

Definitely

Seen it so many times at youth and EDS level that the referee doesnt blow his whistle.

Good football from City, really pushing them back now

watching this, no wonder we buy players apart from a couple of players, the rest will be playing in championship or Scotland

These are kids, Brahim is 17 this year, they are fantastic technically. What are you expecting?

Yeah. But we could have had a penalty for handball.

[Wonderwall]

Davenport is a lovely little tenacious player who reads the game well. City fan too

Bollocks game on 2-2
