Shtanley Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Echo most of the comments here by saying Reid looked very sharp tonight. Keen to play quickly and on the half turn he's good at breaking. He played as one of the 2 deeper midfielders. Little was very poor, can't remember him beating his man and having an end product once. Robinson was good as were Morrell and Kelly. Didn't think Agard was that amazing. Burns was much more exciting and creative than Agard tonight.

RedM Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I thought it was quite a good game, played at a fast pace lots of good passing. As soon as we lost the ball we really wanted it back, so did Forest which made it quite entertaining. We looked hardworking and strong which was nice to see. I thought it was the Wes and Bobby show, both eclipsed the other first teamers we had on show, Agard, Little and Robinson. I didn't have a team sheet but was impressed with our number 5 which was Jack Batten.Cotterill was watching from a few rows behind me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what we were trying or were just sloppy. Our heads didn't drop though which I feared would happen. Yes there were a lot of representatives watching.

It must be very different for them when they do break into a first team game infront of a big crowd, I kind of forget that.Indeed....although, when so few are their, it's nice to be able to hear the shouts and conversations by players....or lack of in many cases. Little, Burns and Agard could all do better at communication imho....Little for example had a far better chance of scoring a header, but failed to let Burns know that it was his....Burns headed over as he was off balance and unaware Little was 'incoming'. Was a guaranteed goal.One thing that took me by surprise was the amount of talking to the players done by the linesman. On one occasion Little was charging down the wing being followed by defender and linesman....lino was all the time telling the defender not to lunge in....when he didn't and ball was played he got a 'well done, good lad'....hadn't realised they had taken on the Rugby idea of telling players what not to do.

HLR Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Worth noting that Lloyd Kelly looks a very good prospect based on last nights performance - forgot to mention it in my post last night. Good delivery on crosses, strong shielding the ball and looked composed bringing the ball out from the back. Not conclusive based on just the one game last night, but of all the academy regulars, he looked the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudski Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Interesting, I've always thought there must be a reason why we've kept Reid on. Most youngsters, rightly or wrongly, would be got' rid of by 21 if they weren't around the first team. On recent performances, I think he deserves a go in the first team. I'd drop Wilbs....play Kodjia on his own with Freeman and Reid behind him. Flank with Bryan and either Agard/Burns....keep Smith and Pack DM.It crossed my mind with Korey probably unfit for Saturday, that Reid may take his place for that game.

Most youngsters, rightly or wrongly, would be got' rid of by 21 if they weren't around the first team. i think Reid and Burns are unlucky to have been around at a time when we were struggling in The Championship and each change of manager resulted in the new guy bringing in tried and trusted players rather than risking blooding youngsters. That went well did n't it ?Joe Bryan has done exceptionally well to breakthrough, in spite of not because of our development system.I am pretty sure that Cotts is playing Reid and Burns reluctantly. Does anyone think they'd be playing if The transfer window had gone to plan ?The other problem these lads have is that the academy was geared up for League 1 and it is only now that the latest bunch are benefiting from a higher performance level against better opposition.
