Not looking good for Andreas. Couldn't be any happier that Axel's back in the fold but what's going on with Demetri? Assuming he's injured again.

In fairness he was fairly poor vs Chelsea. Also great to see Axel back!
He was playing out of position no ?

Anyway, he deserves to be atleast undroppable in this level by now. Atleast not for 1 poor game.


It's kinda like the Pogba situation again. He doesn't seem up for this level anymore.

He played 10 first half and switched with Weir in second half to the left and Weir completely outshone him. It isn't just one poor game either, he should be doing a lot more at this level.

He should be playing slightly deeper. I haven't forgotten how bad he wss as a 10 two years ago.

Love wearing #7 and playing higher up the pitch while Pereira remains on the bench???

Weir looks more like a first team striker than Rooney does atm

First U21's I've come to, I assume it isn't always this full? Nearly all the lower tier of the north stand is packed.

Also, Weir looks class. Outshining Rooney so much today!

Ah SHUT UP!!!!!!
Wayne this, Wayne that! This is the U21 and Weir is the captain, why should he give the arm band to Rooney! So disrespectful to say that the lads getting 3 points that will edge them closer to the title is not important because the game is for Wayne's fitness!

Good little run out for wazza so far. Nice little exchanges with Weir.

What a horrible challenge. Where's our Captain Rooney to go an enact some revenge? Oh he's having a laugh with the defender.
