No Nemeth?

And Darby and Degen in the same team? Who'll play where?

And is that Pacheco and Brouwer up front? So Weijl, our new striker, is playing on the wing?

[livvy145]

Has Nemeth been called up for Hungary?

No idea about the formation mate.

[Dessy]

Degen on the bench only

[livvy145]

Yeah, the team seems to have been changed. Ayala is on.

1-0 brouwer.....good goal.....great play pacheco

[livvy145]

1-0

Lovely flick-cross from Pacheco. Brouwer heads onto the crossbar and heads in the rebound.

Pacheco hits the post.

[RoadEnd]

Off the post from pacheco.

Lovely play so far. Hope the first team are watching.

[Dessy]

And then Pacheco off post......so unlucky....class

[livvy145]

Weijl hits a shot from 25 yards out which Brouwer flicks just wide.

Pacheco is a star. I think he will break into the first team this year. He has a great eye for a pass and has pace.

Aye.....he oozes confidence and ability on the ball.

Weijl is a winger. Saric was the new striker we signed. Nemeth is away with the Hungarians. Seems to have been for a couple of weeks now. Suprised Glucasi isn't, still maybe it's not the U19s.

[El Jefecito]

I like this Ayala kid, when he decides to take someone out, he really does a job!

[JPK]

Aye.....he oozes confidence and ability on the ball.

He does indeed. You can see he has it straight away.
