Barker missing.

Disaster. Difficult game in every respect this. I don't trust the ref over there, for a start.

Do you have an Android tablet? If not then you can download something called Bluestacks for a PC which is an Android emulator which will allow you to then download certain app's (not found in google playstore) to allow you to watch.

PM me if interested

@MCFC: CITY U19S TO FACE ROMA: Gunn, Humphreys, Maffeo, Adarabioyo, Angelino, Bryan (c), Ambrose, Ntcham, Pozo, Byrne, Celina. #mcfc #UYL

Very strong team still but Barker is a huge loss to the shape. His partnership with Angelino is our main threat.

No it's not but he's a huge part of how the team plays and he's been fantastic recently. No Nacho on the bench.

Said it the other week but the strongest u18 team is better than the current u19s. I personally prefer Boadu and Celina to Ntcham and Byrne. Not that the latter to are bad. Still very good players.

That's a much much weaker team than the U18s last game imo. It wouldn't be quite so, if Pozo was his old self.

Unbalanced without Barker. Pozo is just showing little signs of his old self. Kean Bryan is having a mare.

I just don't get how we can beat these cunts twice in the group games & end up having to play them again on their shitty fucking pitch.

Stands out a mile doesn't it. Angelino not really getting forward much like he normally would. Might be down to orders but more likely missing Barker.Celina has done ok but nothing like as dangerous when he gets the ball in good wide positions. He is very much a central midfield player.

I don't like Humphreys as a right back at all.If the winger gets a good chance at him he will skin him as he did on the one occasion he could Vieira must know why he has done that with Maffeo in Humphreys normal central position. So much of Roma's threat comes from us being sloppy on the ball and Tosin has been guilty a lot. Good in his defensive role and even striding forward but he can't keep passing like he is.

A few decent signs from Pozo but he too often seems to need to try something when he should be playing simple. I hope he scores for his confidence but I have a feeling it's a shot from outside the box that might be needed.

The number of small faults they have picked up on with City, and then praising Roma who have made far more mistakes than we have. They were kissing Chelsea's arses the other day & they were fucking garbage; worst I've ever seen them play.

The way they are commentating on this match it's as if we are playing a fucking conference side who we are just expected to walk over. They have had two chances to work out defend against City already & are playing at home. This is a fucking tough game, not a walkover to the next round.
