As soon as I say that he slips in the area and we almost concede... :-X

Apparently Abdoul is a French lad of 19 whose normal position is CB. One for the future, hopefully. Unless he can translate for Kodjia ?

3 mins to go after holding on desperately we concede. Who said we don't have a style of play throughout the club!

Citeh are very good it has to be said.

Man City are a great Team and have not been beaten all season so it was always asking a lot from our boys but what an heroic performance they gave.
The workrate put in defensively would put the first Team to shame.  It was obvious they were better than us and were camped out in our half for long periods of play but our players always closed down the player on the ball and doubled up on their very talented left winger Sancho in particular.

When we had the ball we played some nice stuff as well.  Lots of great performances from all the lads with Finnerty, Jake Hayes and Jack Clarke outstanding but Mitchell Clark was absolutely awesome.

We really have a Clarke and a Clark coming through?!

This will be brilliant, hope both make it through to the first team for that alone.

Nearly tempted for us to re-sign Ciaran.

A mate of mine knows Jack Clarke so I had a look at him last night and he had a fairly decent game. Man City played some very good stuff, their no 11 being especially good.

Maybe we should sign a Clerk, really mess with their minds

Rumbas in the crowd. Sambas in the team. Tangos in Witton all night long. I love our new South American owners. YI-Yi-YI-YI-YI-YIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
