U21s: United vs. Norwich

Who is more likely to make it? Pearson/Rothwell
I do like the fact we're playing the same formation throughout the youth teams. I guess it means anyone can step into the first team and know what they are doing.
Most people would say Pearson, but Rothwell is apparently very well regarded with coaches and players (Of course I know nothing about that I'm just repeating what I read elsewhere).

Barring injury - Rothwell. Not much in it, though.
Rothwell's looked great today.
Good play by Varela there.
I'd say Rothwell is slightly more talented, but Pearson plays in a role where we don't have many similar. For that reason, probably Pearson. I really like both though. Honestly, it probably comes down to who can handle the step up better.
Stream please?
Is Nicky Butt there? Can't see him.
feck me this background noise is annoying.
What's everyone's positions looking like?

Cheers, lads.
The second half's really died down. Since we changed to the 4-2-3-1, we haven't done much, and Norwich, being so poor, have done nothing at all. It seems like we've relaxed our game quite a bit, which is probably why we haven't gotten more goals and looked more threatening.
Varela having a great game. His awareness and energy is incredible.
Great goal
Beauty of goal!
Harrop's having a very good second half.
Oh my! What a goal.
Wow. Love that.
Surely someone must have a stream to share?
How was the first half replication of our 343 1st team formation?
Did the philosophy of play follow through or was it only systematically the same?

Three nice goals from our lads. Looks like Rothwell played well.
Harrop is very good from anything I've seen of him. Doesn't really look like a cm to me though, far too attacking. May end up breaking into the first squad if he continues like this for the full season.
Keep expecting Janko to break out into this

It would be great if we could get him to do that as his goal celebration.Who played LWB during the first half? And any gifs/vines of the first two goals?
Good performances all around, brilliant first half in a new formation.
Varela MoM. Complete domination in three different positions.

Other two goals for those who missed.

Varela and Goss. We shifted the back 5 after about half an hour.
Thanks @limerickcitykid for the vines, was McNair upfield from a corner or was he marauding?
At the 25th min. they have a little one touch passing going and it looked so good. Pity it didn´t go anywhere after a few touches but it was nice to see. The lads played a 3-5-2 and were playing a lot in the Norwich half.
Great goals all around.

We played a short corner. They said at the end of the match we were playing short corners all match and Norwich never coped on.
