Beautiful finish by Musa. Shame about Kone.
U21s: Huddersfield vs United
- Thread starter top1whoisman
- Start date
Classy contributions all round there. Lovely goal.
He'll be alright, looked a sore one but not much more than that
Good response to going behind and that was a lovely equaliser.
Ennis always gets the ball into the box - had a good half
Mee’s distribution is very average. Doesn’t look like a modern goalkeeper at all.
Harrison is comfortably better than Mee or Myles.
Shame to see Kone limp off.
We've signed some promising looking youngsters recently but most of them, apart from Obi-Martin, have had a slow start to their United career one way or another. Thinking of Kone, Plunkett, Lusale, Overy (unlucky with injury).
Very early days for all of them of course.
Good result so far at HT. A result that would deservedly get us through. Hope we can see it out as it would be a real shame to go out - and largely due to missing so many players because of the schedule arranging it for an international week.

Harrison can be erratic too. Myles is very good, he's just a bit on the shorter side. Murdock is also looking like a good ball playing GK, but also very slight, hopefully will grow a bit more.
It's interesting to hear how well our youngsters are doing compared to most of the other U21-teams
Was watching mainly for Malcia amd Kone. Both have been fine, of course with the latter having to go off.
The rest of the team have done pretty well vs Huddersfield. A decent watch.

Murdock is probably the most solid of the goalkeepers - not the one with the highest ceiling, but he is generally solid. He is a Les Sealey
Like City’s?
Yeah they’re all getting beat. Probably similar situation to us with their better players off at international camps and opposition teams at full strength.
Nah, Myles made plenty of mistakes when I watched him last season. Harrison is everything you want in a ball playing keeper. He'll take risks but he was very impressive compared to these two, atleast for me.
Amass on for Malacia at HT. Preplanned, I’m sure.
Villa 3-0 down as well - one of Barrows goalscorers is Theo Vassell - any relations ?
Commentator just mentioned the EFL (autoglass) cup final Huddersfield I got taken to in 1994 by my dad trying to get me to support Huddersfield
THAT was lucky
That was 100% a penalty. If not, he surely had to book their player for diving.
EDIT: Actually he might have handled the ball before the challenge. So very good refereeing.
Very lucky... It was a penalty in my eyes..
Oh yes
Dive
See edit above. Might actually have been a very sharp call by the ref.
We’re really struggling to get out of our half here. Being dominated.
Kingdon has been really good - much better than Fredricson today
Seems like the playing surface might be an issue
Well that goal has been coming
Yup. We’re getting a chasing out there. Literally men against boys.
Pressure had been building. No surprise they have scored.
Think that one was a penalty too.. that goal was deserved for Huddersfield.
Amass has been shaky at best
2-1 Town
Big step down from Malacia, that’s for sure.
Totally outplayed. Binnion, is he good enough? To be fair, though, it's not a great squad he has to choose from tonight. It's bizarre that Ogunneye has been with the first team so much.
With the side Huddersfield have out I'd say we've done well to be at 2-1
I think he isn't the right man for this important job, but not the issue (insofar as there is one) tonight
Not really - because we have so few full-backs who are injury-free
Put it in the box ffs.
As much as I like Amass - he has been awful in these 45 minutes
