O’Hara; Olosunde, Warren, Borthwick-Jackson, Mitchell; Scott, Willock, Gribbin, Harrop, McTominay (C); Bohui.

Substitutes – Richardson, Hamilton, Kehinde, Whelan, Dearnley.

The game is live on MUTV and kicks off at 19:00 BST.
 
Happy to see Bohui start instead of a midfielder just because of an older age.
 
Arsenal XI: Macey, Jenkinson, Johnson, Sheaf, Bramall, Kamara, Maitland-Niles, Mourgos, Nelson, C Willock, Nketiah.

So we need a point from our final two games too stay up right? Not easy seeing is we have Arsenal and Spurs.
 
Demi vs Willock, this might be fun:)
 
Midfield's been lethargic. Willock and McTominay need to take a long hard look at themselves whether they deserve to be involved with the first team.

Olosunde couldn't defend to save his life.
 
They don't deserve to be anywhere near the first team tbh. They are half the players of our previous u21 midfielders and none of them ever got a chance

Not only that, they are half the players Harrop is....feel sorry for the guy, such an average team around him in last 2 years, no wonder he didnt develop much.
 
Thankfully when the current U18s step up then the U23 should be full of talent.
 
Its been a seriously bad season for the U23s.

Always said that Butt is an average coach and really shouldn't be anywhere near the set up.

Is there any news on who will be the coach next season? Guessing a return for Joyce is off the cards?


- Reading are winning too. Hopefully Spurs won't smash us next week.

Relegation avoided. A massive clearout ahead in the summer.

Don't think there will be. At most 2-3 going out permanently.

We played much better in the second half with Kehinde, Hamilton in midfield, Dearnley right wing and Harrop with a more free role. Could be a sneak peek of next season (with the likes of Buffonge,Gomes etc to come in).

We'll see, I wouldn't be surprised to see half of the older lads leaving. Depends of course on how the club sees the function of this team. If it's just to take part (and not care about having an unbalanced squad) in the PL2, might as well continue like this.

Harsh. This u23 side had been drained of talent over the last few years as they have moved up or moved on.
 
Olusunde is

Didn't want to dig him out but Olosunde is terrible

Our U23s coaches need to have some specific training for him to improve his one-on-one and defensive positioning over the summer, considering it looks like he'll be the first choice right back for a while.
