Perrett, Lawlor & Giles start for Wales u19s alongside former Bluebirds Benjamin, Crew & Biancheri. Armstrong, Mafico & Twose on the bench

It'll be a real test for them tonight, some very good players in the England squad

Charlie Crew’s loan move to Doncaster’s not been going too well - he’s been a sub whenever I’ve looked recently.

There's 5 or 6 players that would give Peter Crouch a run for his money.

Team of beanpoles.

Finished Wales 0 England 2 in what looks like a “group of death”, is it worth having a look at today?

Looks like Wales under 21s made eleven changes at half time in their friendly with Andorra today. Cian Ashford was in the first half team - Wales won 1-0 with Chris Popov, once on City’s books, scoring.

Waled under 18s are currently playing Poland - they’re winning 1-0 with Mannie Barton the only City player in the starting line up.

Pretty much how you'd imagine it to be so no real need to catch up. England were better, we had some good breaks and a number of corners and free kicks but the result was about right. The sides didn't seem very fair to me, England had Dibling, Miley, Tyrique George and others starting then brought Mikey Moore and Chris Rigg off the bench.

Good experience for our lads though, I didn't see a lot of Perrett when I was watching but Lawlor and Giles seemed to be doing ok. Lawlor took over the captaincy when Crew went off.

Thanks, I won’t bother watching it then - I saw an article saying that the group of teenagers England have coming through are their best yet, they might have a point.

Wales beat Poland 1-0 in the end with Mannie Barton scoring the goal.

Interesting article about Chelsea's strategy of buying in young players. We also seem to be focusing on signing younger talent, but not the way Chelsea are doing it.

Cian Ashford scored for the u-21s today in a 1-1 draw with Sweden. Him and Joel Colwill both started.
