As expected the el gashi signing has pushed dobbin back down to the u23s
Slightly surprised to see Hughes drop to the bench, he generally seems to be one of unsworths favourites. Good to see Simms, Dobbin and Onyango dropping down to help out though, given how many of the regulars played last night. COYB
Interesting fact his dad scored only 1 goal for Man City and it was also his last ever goal. Guess who it was against? Fate?
….ha, ha. Chalk and cheese, but it’s good to have the sporting pedigree from an athletic and attitude perspective.

Man City knocked out of the youth cup today by Brighton
….decent recruitment at Brighton, that team will have one or two decent players.
Certainly on paper that’s a surprise result, City teams are 2nd at u18 and U23s , perhaps not as dominant as they’ve been in the past but you’d expect them to beat Brighton , even playing away. But then again , it was a surprise when we beat them last season.

Whats happened with ours since the ban as we wary now? Are our teams good enough at that age? Or are our scouts just not great?
Our “ Recruitment “ looks a complete mess at the moment. While there were rumours and rumbles at the start of the season after Chris Perkins Head of Academy Recruitment , the guy we got from Derby , moved on to Spurs it looks like it’s got worse the past six weeks with the departure of Brands, Greta Steiner Head of Academy & Recruitment and Dan Purdy Head of Scouting and Operations. Presumably Joel Waldron took up Perkins position, I’m not sure if it was officially announced , but that didn’t look like a major improvement at the time. I couldn’t say if those that have left we’re doing a great job or not but we appear to have some big holes that need filling.
Apart from recruiting new talent, all this turmoil must have a knock -on effect on our current youngsters. The best u16s are presumably being offered or considering Scholarships for next season around about now , and our older prospects like Dobbin have had the Benitez pep talk of “ Don’t worry , I’ll look after you”. You feel the only way it could get worse is if we somehow brought in Mourinho.
