I know he's been involved with the first team, but Nathan Harness is only 21 yet hardly ever plays for the U23s now. I guess they want to fast track Beadle

Was pretty much the same case with Maynard-Brewer last season.

Surprising as surely the club would want them up to speed if they were needed in the First Team

Left back looks dodgy

Right back looks a bit dodgy too.

Well, they did say that they want consistency through the squads. The U23's are just trying to emulate the first team 😄😄😄

Was about to follow up with that

First 20 minutes was men against Boys but we're slowly getting a foothold in the game.
Two point blank saves from Beadle.

Dazzler21

That number 2 is crap

EugenesAxe

Clayden never looks to play someone in and always tries to go all the way on his own and then always puts his hand up to say sorry to his teammates 😆

Addictedoldgit

Another superb save from Beadle!

Southbank

Another good save from Beadle. We seem to be well stocked in the goalkeeper department at least.

Southbank

I think the right back might be Harris O'Connor from Rangers

So predominantly a lb or cb lol

1-0 Derby stroke of HT

Southbank

Their winger skins our defence for second time in minutes and sets up a first goal for Derby.

EugenesAxe

A bit half arsed so far…

Southbank

And does it again! But no goal this time.

Dazzler21

Lb and RB are awful. Caused all of our problems so far. Midfield can't get forward because the passing from those two is so poor.

Southbank

Only Beadle standing between Derby and a hatful of goals

lancashire lad

HT 1-0

Dazzler21

Surprised some of the more senior u23s aren't in this?

Commentator is a pain in the arse, the Derby number 8 is easily the best player on show, but Beadle has been very good.

Addictedoldgit

Our trialist left back has been completely outplayed by their right winger.

They’re the trialists aren’t they?

Blucher

We keep giving possession away on that left flank. It’s difficult for trialists but we are looking very soft in that area.

You can see why Beadle’s getting international recognition and attracting the attention of other clubs.

Southbank

We have had a few chances but Derby have had more. Our midfield has not been in it. Henry is particularly anonymous and Clayden does not appear to have a football brain. Elewere has had a decent game so far and there have been a few quality moments from Powell and Santos. But we have been generally outplayed.

I may be being a bit harsh, but I cannot see much real quality in this generation of our youth, having seen them a fair few times now. Is that fair?

killerandflash

Derby are broke. Can't we buy a few of their players at HT?

sam3110

Bring back Ged Roddy!

Southbank

Clayden gone to left back. We have looked much better this half and should be level.

Blucher

Better in the first 10 minutes of the second half but a really bad miss from Powell

Yep, LB especially had done nothing to earn a deal of any sort.

Christ this ref change is a faff
