Academy: Bolton away

[Elliott]

Starting XI: Devlin, Dudgeon, Gill, Wootton, Strickland, Stewart, Norwood(c), Brady, Curran, Ajose, Brandao.

1-0 up at HT. Brandao with a superbly taken goal. Should've been 3 or 4 up.

Brady's playing in the middle.

Morrison's just come on for Stewart, Tunnicliffe for Strickland. 2-0 now btw, Curran scored after 56 minutes.

 

[PS18]

Two goals in three minutes from Josh King, the latter after some brilliant build-up play from Morrison and Tunnicliffe - 4-0.

Gutted forgot all about this match. What is that Josh King like, I haven't seen all that much of him to be honest.

 

[PS18]

5-0 - Norwood, from long-range naturally.

Think he's made one friendly appearance for the Academy - he's in a lower age group.

King's a big lad for his age and very fast. Good in the air, fairly skillful. Today was the first time he's looked match fit since returning from injury. You could see his confidence coming back as the half progressed and at the end of the day you can't argue with 2 goals and an assist in 45 mins.

Cheers mate, he sounds like another interesting young prospect.

Great performance, imagine how high the score could have been had we taken a few more of our first half chances. Great to see the goals being shared out between a range of players too.
