U18: United vs Sunderland
- Thread starter top1whoisman
- Start date
No Buffonge hmm...
Are Buffonge and Boonen with their national teams?
Boonen is playing and Buffonge is English so I wouldn't have thought so. Has he ever been capped by England @khoazany ?
Boonen is playing. #7
Boonen is starting the game? Buffonge isn't an international, there's no u23 game for another week, so maybe he's injured.
Hope Belgium play somewhere near Manchester...
Sorry my friends, this jet-lag must be mental as well as physical. Apologies.He's one of those who are strangely ignored by England. I would bet for him to be called up next year though.
Moutha-Sebtaoui is away with Belgium I think.
Good to see Warren back which means we'll finally get to see O'Connor in his natural position.

Aye. If he continues this year's form he should get a look in.
U23 have a match on Monday, Buffonge spared for that one?
Buffonge being rested after playing in a behind closed doors U23 match earlier this week.
How're we lining up guys?
Fojtíček
O’Connor — Warren — Dunne —- Kenyon
Whelan — Hamilton
Boonen — Gomes — Bohui
Burkart

that was a bad one
21’min Sunderland take the lead 1-0.
Fojtíček missed the ball completely, easy goal for the visitors.
Probably the worst 30 minutes I have seen from them all season - something lacklustre about the whole team. But this is a team we will beat if a few of the players get to their normal Level in the 2nd half.
Very much against the run of play, it’s been all United so far.
Gomes should've equalised.
Bohui looks a really poor player
Is he a trialist?
No we signed him from Brentford during the summer
Cheers. Yeh remember now.
He's switched sides with Boonen and we're better down the left already.
Angel could’ve, and should’ve had a couple of goals already. And yeah, Bohui hasn’t impressed. Confident we’ll turn this around in the 2nd half.
He reminds me of Zaha, his dribbling is good but seems like he'd prefer to try to dribble past an extra tackle rather than put in the final pass or shot and his passing is so sloppy
HT 0-1
Ok performance so far but a level or two down from previous matches. I would bring Barlow on for the second half.
Someone please pm me stream
Like McKenna mentioned, it’s extremely valuable for the young players to experience different types of scenarios, such as coming back from international duty in this case (oka only Gomes this time). Sounds smart to try to prepare the players for whatever might come at ’em later in their careers.
Starting to feel like ”one of those games”. Plenty of chances...
You can't seriously mean that we have had plenty of chances ?
Buffonge and Chong clearly missed. Struggling with their closing down also.
There is a guy (possibly the Sunderland-coach) who sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger
It has looked like United under LvG - we have the ball most of the time, but we have just passed it around without really threatening Sunderland. And we have looked really vulnerable defensively every team Sunderland kick a long ball forward
Did he mention we need to get Gomes on the ball?
Could’ve scored a few.
