[Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

[Papa Lazarou]

Not the hardest goal in the world to score

Tell that to Maupay or Trossard.

He'd already skinned our left back in the first couple of minutes.

 

[Uncle C]

First half XI: McGill, Nilsson, Tsoungui, Dendoncker, Turns, Furlong, Dicker, Spong, Richards, Moran, Ifill.

Thanks. Perhaps one day they might tell us which numbers the players are.

Thanks. Perhaps one day they might tell us which numbers the players are.

No idea but i think they are 1-11.
*edited* - they aren't. !

 

[Uncle C]

No idea but i think they are 1-11.

Good call

 

[Winker]

These are a good team

 

[Worthing exile]

Good save but no other potential first team squad showing yet.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

1 McGill
2 Nillson
3 Furlong
4 Tsongui
5 Dendonker
6 Turns
7 Dicker
8 Spong
9 Ifill
10 Moran
11 Richards

.... I think

22 min. A lazy bit of defending by Tsongui who gave away possession and then pulled back the Sutton striker to give a penalty away, but well saved by McGill in the Brighton goal.

 

[Munkfish]

Good pen save. This isn’t close to our best under 23 team is it? Most of them are out on loan.

 

[Worthing exile]

Good pen save. This isn’t close to our best under 23 team is it? Most of them are out on loan.

Do they not still have bubbles? Thought Richards would be with the big boys.

 

[Pavilionaire]

22 min. A lazy bit of defending to give a penalty away, but well saved by McGill in the Brighton goal.

A pass straight to the opposition, then lost his man who went round the back of him, then a blatant shirt pull. Not good from No. 4 (Tsoungui?)

Brilliant diving save by McGill. It's been men against boys in this first quarter, although for us Moran has caught the eye with three defence-splitting passes.

 

[Icy Gull]

I watched for 10 mins and gave up. Very Hughtonesque what I saw, passing backwards and sideways showing no intent and then losing the ball with a sloppy pass. Has it got better?

 

[Sir-Len]

Best guess, Turns/Furlong 2/4
First half XI: 1 McGill, 3 Nilsson, 5 Tsoungui, 6 Dendoncker, 4 Turns, 2 Furlong, 7 Dicker, 8 Spong, 11 Richards, 10 Moran, 9 Ifill.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Good pen save. This isn’t close to our best under 23 team is it? Most of them are out on loan.

If it's like the Worthing game, we'll have a new 11 for the 2nd half. so, this is a mix of U23 and U18 players.

 

[wealdgull]

What's going on with the American Express logos on our players' shirts? Thought I had a bad connection at first but it looks like the logos are all smudged. Or does it always look like that on the yellow shirts?

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Sign Davey up

 

[BHAFC_123]

The Chap who has scored both goals used to be one of ours

 

[Uncle C]

1 McGill
2 Nillson
3 Furlong
4 Tsongui
5 Dendonker
6 Turns
7 Dicker
8 Spong
9 Ifill
10 Moran
11 Richards

.... I think

Cheers.

0-2 Sutton. Really poor defending, our two central defender nowhere after a ball over the top from halfway. Davey no problem in holding off the covering left-back to slot home.

Haydon Roberts missing from the backline and it shows.

 

[Change at Barnham]

29 min: Our number 3 (Nilsson or Furlong?) looked weak in his challenge to defend the through ball to the Sutton forward. The Albion keeper will also be disappointed in not keeping it out.
Sutton are giving our youngsters plenty to think about. Sutton are certainly winning the physical battle.
