Neil Banfield’s Reserves are in action this evening against Manchester City’s Elite Development Squad in the Premier Reserve League. Both sides are unbeaten with two wins from a possible two.
In terms of team news, Johan Djourou continues his run out for the second string while Wojciech Szczesny also comes in. Oguzhan Ozyakup makes the bench after injury. Full line up:
Szczesny; Hoyte, Djourou, Miquel, Evina; Aneke, Eastmond, Randall; Deacon, Afobe, Emmanuel-Thomas.
The fixture is being streamed live on Manchester City‘s website from 7pm. You can also get text updates on our Twitter feed @YoungGunsBlog. A full Match Report will follow on the full time whistle.
According to City’s website there are looking to go 2 out of 2, apparently their last game was postponed. Is the stream free? Or do you have to be registered or something? I couldn’t find info on the site.
BTW Does anyone else think the City EDS is a bit of a joke?
Jamie, could you explain a bit more exactly what you mean under “Nordtveit is in the first-team now”? Obviously I see that he has been training with the first team since the summer (correct me if he hasn’t) and with Djourou’s fitness and Vermaelen’s injury he is very close to play. Can you see chance that he will be on the bench tomorrow, or his debutation in the first team will be delayed until the first Carling Cup match?
Thanks!!
Didnt realise Aneke was so big!
What happened to Nordtveit? I’d expected him to line up aswell, but hes missing. Have I missed something? Is he injured?
city are winning boooooooooooooo

Shame on ATV.
I really want Arsenal to win this, just to shut this commentator up!!
wow, our defense is really weak, but Tech9 looks solid
more specifically the wings, but Afobe and JET are looking like they could have a bright future at arsenal
What’s up with Tom Cruise? injured?
ManCity EDS hanging on….
Going forward we look great… JET is a beast of a man
Aneke has been our best player.
JET’s GOAL ANYONE!?!?!?!?!? HOLY HELL! WAT A STRIKE!
this man is going to be a beast!
That was a world class strike from the big fellar, he looks like he could be the real deal. Watched all of the pre season matches and he’s really impressed me. Just needs a little bit more experience and he’ll be the man
JET was unbelievable, I really hope he stays, Long Throw, Speed, Strength, is there anything he can’t do?
The commentator was a laugh! Should get a job on sky, would fit in really well with his fair and balanced commentary.
I said it once.. and i’ll say it again.. JET is playing with children in the reserves… he’s too good for the reserves, they have to put 3 guys to mark him…and he still comes out with the ball!! He needs some first team action…
