From the Wigan feed sounds like Tavares has missed a couple of chances

All over.
Not sure we would have scored if we had another 30 mins.

Think it's been a bit like that all season
When we have a few first team squad guys playing we brush opponents aside but when we play just the young players it's a different story

Which is why we have to trust the manager as to when players are ready and the massive step up now that we're not L2/L1. Nobody was more pleased than me when Fabio scored coming off the the bench, but in some ways it was the worst thing that could have happened as it only added fuel and increased the hype. The same with assuming JJ will automatically be great at this level having had part of a season in L2 and 3 ACL's since or those who think Reid is better than Bidwell based on nothing or Bayliss should come back after being unproven at Preston. In time they could all be decent but for now I'll trust Robins and Viveash to know when they're ready.

Marco Ruscwas our best player. He was subbed I think to avoid a red card as he was getting really niggly.Jeremy Kyezu was quite promising.
Overall quite a disappointing team display. Not sure or convinced about those other players stepping up to first team. Admittedly based on one game.

If it's Rooney, surely it's more likely to be Over 60's than Under 23's isn't it?

Argument maybe that we need to treat it more like a reserve team and use it to both get first teamers fit and help the youngsters learn?

We probably did that in the early part of the season but we've had so many out with injury and illness lately that both the first team and U23 squads are down to the famous football 'bare bones'
