todays U21 Game

[blue matt]

I was there with my lads. We came over from Bristol.
It’s funny, because I thought Benjamin had a stinker and that Tanner played well, with some great passes, plus he created the third goal from the left wing!

Funny how different players see things differently, I guess I was expecting good things from him ( but tobw explains it ) as the few games ive seen him play he has been decent, 2 recent games , Colchester and QPR, he really looked the part, I think at the PW7 game he looked lively

In my experience, first team players or squad members rarely tear things up when they play in reserve/under 21s football. I’ve been at games where you look at the team sheet and think you’re going to see City score five or six because they have half a side of first teamers and the opposition have no names you recognise in theirs, but it very seldom works out like that.

I thought Tanner did pretty well (a six or seven out of ten performance), but agree with the OP about Colwill and Ashford. As for Benjamin, I think the main reason he appears to be rated so highly by management at the club is because he’s a “leader”, but I’d like to see a bit more evidence that he can actually play. It’s a shame Dylan Lawlor made a poor error which led to Wednesday’s second goal, because, otherwise, I thought he played well and outshone Benjamin.

yea a 6 would have been fair, but from his QPR subs appearance I was expecting more I guess

Benjamin looked very in control of his defence, imho thats a trait you cant fully coach it, you either have it or you dont

2 schoolboy mistake clearances, but even the more seasoned Pro's make them, it happens

I guess our player was sent off for 2 Yellows ? ? ? poor lad looked gutted when he came off
