Looks like the youth have a game against Spanish Opposition tonight.  Live at 7pm via the usual channels.

Can safely assume anyone involved in the game won't be in Manchester:

Watched a bit of it in the first half,no cohesion between the players,no striker outlet. Seems familar.
Very strange for the bulk of the team,7, to be missing.
It's good to train with the 1st team squad but to go to OT and be nothing but water carries is a bit crazy,they could go to Brighton on Sunday and at least have a day out at the seaside instead of watching the rain in Manchester.
Now I could be wrong and we will see 4 or 5 on the bench with a couple of starters.
Or some of that 7 are injured or even a few injuries from the Liverpool game. Maybe they are so sick of the negative tactics that they are still retching down the toilet.
ho hum

Not just the under strength side selected for this fixture but Athetlco Bilbaos youth teams are notoriously good anyway. No shame in getting pumped all considered. Good learning curve for those playing.

No wonder we're getting spanked.

This lot are bottom of the mini league we're in for this tournament, and we're only a bit above them. Guessing maybe we're resting our better kids for the league game at the weekend?

Hopefully all 3 are on their way to Manchester 
They should have fucking been there on the bench in the last game. Hopefully he's learnt another lesson quickly, in particular Earthy.

Landers need to start as he is most like the striker we could do with, Wilson could break down any minute. Fulkrug ditto and doesn't deserve a place on the bench. Marshall should be on the bench instead of the multiple defensive players we have on their.

Marshall can be involved not good enough yet, Earthy I'd love to see tomorrow.

Marshall and Earthy should not be involved still be a strong team with Landers and Ajala replacing them.

Team should be something like.
Hyegi
Battrum
Myers
Briggs
Golembeckis
Adiele
Kante
Orford
Fearon
Landers
Ajala
