Manchester City U23 - Sunderland U23

Massive massive game for us. 1st vs 2nd and they're playing well. That draw last time out hurts us like I've already said but no time for that, must focus. We still are missing Gordon through suspension and awaiting outcome of our appeal to the league as we believe he's only meant to have a two game suspension not a four but until told otherwise we're not going to try to play him and risk a forfeit and fine for fielding an ineligible player.

If we want anything out of this we'll need to starve their forwards of service as they have been prolific this season (they're welcome to come do some finishing tutoring if they have the time!)

A draw probably seems about right here not that either side will want that but will be hard to seperate 1st and 2nd here.

Manchester United U23 - Leeds United U23

1st match in charge havnt had much time to prepare and i am just gone with the best team i can cause they have loads of fitness issues which i will need to sort out when i get chance

Coventry City U23 - West Ham United U23

Tough game but Coventry at home. Might be able to do enough to get at least a point out of it, but West Ham youth no mugs and have been putting away better sides than us away from home. Just stick to the basics here and work hard and we will see where that might take us.
