U18s: Stoke 1-4 United | U21s: United 10-1 Stoke

[top1whoisman]

Saturday 25 August 11:00 BST. Live on MUTV.

Hopefully we'll see a couple of debuts.

Stoke lost their first match of the season at home 1-6 to Leeds. We beat Boro 4-0 away with Ethan Williams winning a penalty, scoring one and assisting two goals. Nolan, Munro & Jackson the other goalscorers.

Would be a good game for Amass and the Fletcher's debuts.

Would be a good game for Amass and the Fletcher's debuts.

Much more looking forward to this game than to watch the first-team play

 

[top1whoisman]

No anticipated debuts, but keeper Fred Heath is in the U18 matchday squad for the first time, I believe. Nice to see Curley back.

McAllister probably involved with the U21s.

Good to see Lacey’s injury wasn’t anything serious! I wonder if Williams will spend his time with the U21’s from now on?

Probably yeah, deservedly so. Of course injury situations in both squads could change that. And if he struggles in the U21s (doesn't look like that) he might drop down to gain some confidence etc.

 

[lysglimt]

There are 2 Stoke-players called : Casey Sillitoe and Paul Tortoiseshell

You couldn't make that up

 

[Gungerz]

Viv Anderson's son Freddie starts for Stoke.

 

[top1whoisman]

10 minutes in and it’s all United so far.

 

[top1whoisman]

Myles’ careless pass results in a decent chance for Stoke. The shot is saved, corner for the hosts.

 

[top1whoisman]

14’

Kamason comes off injured. Lacey on. Fitzgerald RB, Scanlon CM, Missin LW.

 

[top1whoisman]

20’

Despite United having most of the ball so far the two shots on target so far have both come from Stoke.

 

[top1whoisman]

Two good chances for United. Musa’s cutback finds Scanlon in the box, keeper saves it with his feet. Missin’s rebound blocked by a defender.

 

[Nicklas]

Must give you credit for your dedication @top1whoisman, much appreciated! Who’s the one to keep an eye on in this team? I guess that Lacey is the biggest talent?

He was always Missin’.

 

[top1whoisman]

Another good attack from United. Musa passes it to Lacey who gets a chance with his left but the crossbar saves the Stoke keeper.

In today’s lineup Mantato, Munro & Firzgerald are the standouts for me, but yeah Lacey is the brightest prospect.

 

[top1whoisman]

Good to see Musa getting more involved in the game compared to previous games. Created a couple of chances too.

 

[top1whoisman]

38’

Moorhouse 1-0

 

[lysglimt]

Good goal by Moorhouse - took the ball on his chest after a corner and hammered it into the bottom corner

 

[top1whoisman]

After another crap corner Kingdon crosses it in, Moorhouse does brilliantly to control the loose ball and finishes it very well with his left foot.

[lysglimt]

We are lucky that Stoke havent scored on a few of our big defensive mistakes

 

[top1whoisman]

Myles creates another chance for the opposition by poor decision-making. Good save to make up for it.

[lysglimt]

Missin should have scored there - had a good game but should have done better there

 

[sglowrider]

Very rainy day in Stoke

 

[top1whoisman]

41’

Moorhouse finds Missin on the left who chops it and shoots with his right but misses the target.

 

[top1whoisman]

Missin should have scored there - had a good game but should have done better there

Absolutely. Got to at least make the keeper work.

 

[top1whoisman]

43’

Good effort from Stoke outside the box but ot goes wide.

Good to see McAllister involved in U21.

Good to see McAllister involved in U21.

Mejía too. Getting back to the level of when we first got him.

1-0 United after 8 minutes at the U21 game - goal by Hansen Aarøen

 

[lysglimt]

The Stoke left back at the U21 game is called Lewis Macari - any relations ?

Grandson.

 

[top1whoisman]

Brilliant run from Mantato, Musa fails to get a shot off close to the goal.

 

[top1whoisman]

51’

Lacey doing some magic again on the byline.

 

[top1whoisman]

Stoke look much better after the break.
