Academy And Under-23s

A strong U21 side went down 2-0 to Fulham today.

Britos, Doyley, Dyer, Watson, Abdi, Gueds, Berguis, Diamanti, Ibarbo and Deeney all featured.

 

Katčhanutli*k......Katčhanuterkna*ker....that Swedish bloke would still make a decent signing.

 

Fulham had their first choice 11 playing pretty much.

 

It wouldn't have been an u21 side as you're only allowed 3 over 21s. Would've been a friendly. Sorry for being pedantic!

 

Was a behind closed doors friendly. Not an under 21 game.

 

So what I said then?

 

WFC vs Leeds U-21's today. COYH.

 

Jakubiak goal, Byers and Jakubiak link well.

 

1-0 ft. Jakubiak, Gilmartin had a decent game.

 

Brought in one of his mates to toughen them up-maybe off the field as well !

Interesting choice given his background -maybe Lee Bowyer is a reformed character

 

The Wobies comments section has been closed on the Bowyer story.
Wonder why?

 

Probably to avoid dirty Leeds fans soiling the page with their comments.

 

Anyone go today? How were the front 3?

Are the U-21's a bit rubbish?

 

Reading the bits from Twitter it sounds like Diamante while very good is still not match fit yet, Oulare is a handful and Ibrabo is a dangerous player. Jakubiak is in good form.

 

From the WD Sport live feed:

"22:55
Sadly we can’t bring you any player reaction from tonight’s thrilling 3-3 draw, where the Hornets twice came from two goals down, because no player is allowed to speak and communicate to the fans just how pleased they are at the result."

Shots fired. Wonder why..

 

Because the press have a habit of asking the wrong questions and misinterpreting any answers they are given. E.g. If a player has a small grievance it is easy for an experienced journo to latch onto and blow out of all proportion as is the habit in this country. Before you know it we have issues where none existed.

 

I don't need anyone to communicate their joy at drawing an U21s match with QPR to me.

I feel sorry for WD40 though as that's probably three days of articles down the swanny for them. They'll have to wait for the QSF press conference now.

 

Maybe the club got the hump about something in WDS's QSF arctile yesterday. It was favorable but perhaps there was stuff they didn't want coming out in the press

Sounds pretty pathetic and childish from the WDsport to be honest. If the club don't want the players to speak to the press or want to protect the players from the press then that's their decision. It's U21's FFS.....Does anybody really care enough to warrant such immaturity from the WDSport.

 

Kevin Affleck sounds like a right arse.

 

Currently 1-0 against Brighton. Mensah with a lovely through ball which Jakubiak puts away. Another goal for him!

 

Good skills. And once they've finished the warm up match with Brighton they can move on to playing the actual cup match opponents - Birmingham :]]

Noooo, Rene! Stretcher. Walked down the tunnel after stretcher.

 

Third GK at Udinese, behind Karnezis and the young Meret.

 

I believe so. He signed a professional deal didn't he? Not seen his name pop up much recently though.

 

They did lose 6-1 to Chelsea last time out!

 

U-21's just went from 3-0 to 4-3 within the last ten minutes. :doh: That is quite impressively ****.

 

Unless I am misreading twitter (which is not impossible at all) we seem to have lost our u21 match v Brentford 4-3 having gone into injury time 3-1 up! Collapse of epic proportions.
