Aston Villa U23s, Academy & Ladies - 2016/17

We should go to that, if we can, then.

Just checked, Broxbourne (ninth tier) beat Yeovil one-nil.

Fair play to them. Don't fuck this up, Villa!

I had that their U18 beat their first XI, adult version, 6-1 in a pre-season friendly. 
Their team is going to be raided by the big clubs soon and coaches too I suspect.

[cdbearsfan]

Their first team don't look much good, bottom of their division and heading for the tenth tier of English football. Surely they should give some of their wunderkinds a go?

Not widely publicised ( understatement !) but our under 2s are playing at Naaarich tonight in the Premier League International Cup - Group E -
First Half - Norwich City U23s 1 Aston Villa U23s 2 ( a header from Davis 29 and  cracking 30 yarder from Jerrell Sellars to re-take the lead ...for us  )
I can only find updates on this Norwich site : http://www.pinkun.com/norwich-city/updates_norwich_city_u23s_v_aston_villa_u23s_1_4847249

Sounds like we deserve our lead , Matt Jarvis playing for them ( under 23?! ) , RH-M gone off due to injury.

Apparently lots of dribbling going on.

Dummies being spat out all over the pitch.

[Legion]

Toys being thrown out of the pram everywhere.

Ended up losing 4-3 and knocked out of the competition, though I work it out that we'd have to have won by at least three to go through so it was always unlikely.

U23 v Middlesbrough at VP is being streamed live on the official Facebook page for anyone interested.

[paul_e]

Calder playing at left back, never seen him in defence before so maybe they're trying him out as the understudy for Amavi.

Our 5 (Suliman I think) looks a decent centre half from what I've seen, always fairly competent with the ball.

[paul_e]

Oh, and Sarkic looks a very good young keeper, confident coming off his line, good shot stopper and a big kick on him.

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

Suliman is a good footballer...highly thought of in the England set up too.

[peter w]

Can see why davis isn't playing over Gabby. Nowhere near ready.
