Have you got the full line up?

Have you got the full line up?

Yes indeedy:

Burge (GK), Willis, Finch, Haynes, Phillips, Garner, Barton, Rankin, Lobjoit, Manset, Trialist.

Any idea how they're lining up?

Don't know anything about Finch, I assume the trialist is a striker?

2-0 Jordan Chiedozie doubles the Cherries lead, sliding it over Lee Burge.

No idea mate, but I assume 4-4-2 and two reasons for that, a) Because I think that the trialist playing is a striker and b) Steven Pressley is watching and he likes the U-21 squad to set up in the same way as the First XI.

3-0. Jordan Chiedozie grabs his second of the game, tapping home a rebound. 35 minutes gone

Cheers, wonder why we're still looking at strikers?

You'd think with Wilson, Clarke and Manset we'd be solid in that department, would prefer we looked at CB's..

Half-time: Coventry City U-21s 0-3 AFC Bournemouth. A Jordan Chiedozie brace and an own goal puts the Cherries up at Ryton.

I wonder if perhaps one of those three is not long for this club.

Let's hope we can get through the end of August without selling any of experienced players like L Clarke, Baker or Murphy or we are in trouble.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Looks like they need another 4 or 5 CBs judging by the HT score!

Trialist could well be a number 10. There's no need for another striker.

"With the fantastic emergence of Callum Wilson and Billy Daniels, we felt it best to allow Baker and Clarke to leave so that the youngsters talent has room to blossom. And if you don't buy that, it's all the fans fault for not following us to Northampton.

Unfortunately, due to the timing of these transfers on deadline day, we are unable to add to the squad. However the manager will be very active in the loan market."

I hope so Brad Inman would be good.

We're only 11 points off the play offs with 2 games gone! Its not like we need anyone is it?!

Agreed however shipping 10 goals in 3 games is of slight concern, yes we can bear in mind once Webster get's up to speed however I feel we need another CB because if one of the starting CB's get's injured then we are back to relying on kids again.

Lets hope that isn't the case.

Double sub for City: Rankin and Trialist OFF, Lawton and Maund ON

 

[covcity4life]

we have 3 strikers and are playing 2 a game,course we could do with 1 more

but yeh a centreback is more important in terms of order of signings.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Another City Sub: Jack Finch OFF, Tarik Azille-Moore ON

 

[RoboCCFC90]

As far as I have heard/seen peeps U-21 lost 3-0.
