    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    F/T 0-6. Not pretty viewing but it will keep their feet on the ground, and the experience of playing a bona fide men's League 2 outfit will be invaluable. There are still a squad of 25 in front of them and 9 or 10 out on loan / resting from tournaments, and I still like the look of Moran and...

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    0-6. Corner from the left floated onto the head of their striker who scores unchallenged from 4 yards out. I don't think any of our defenders - keeper included - even moved. Men against boys. This fixture might have seemed a good idea 5 or 6 weeks ago but we are looking like a demoralised...

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    Yep. our No. 14 first to the ball but their striker still gets his foot round to score, keeper nowhere. All started when our No. 17 dived in off his feet and let their left-back have 20 yards and time to whip in a dangerous cross.

    Jesus Christ, McGill passes it straight to their guy who hits it first time into the empty net. This has been a masterclass in how to press a team that plays out from the back.

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    A much better start to this second half from the Albion, lots of changes made by Sutton at h/t judging by the high squad numbers on some of these shirts.

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    The reality here is there are 11 men up against 10 teenagers and Gary Dicker. It is a physical mismatch. Sutton have pressed high up the pitch, forced our defenders into poor or risky passes, and their midfield have outfought and outmuscled our midfield. On the plus side, you can see Moran...

    Harsh on the keeper. For a big lad No. 11 Richards was outmuscled in midfield, their guy gets too much time, a cruel deflection off No. 6 loops up over the keeper. I think he even managed to tip it onto the post. Ifill then misses our best chance with a wayward volley.

    0-2 Sutton. Really poor defending, our two central defender nowhere after a ball over the top from halfway. Davey no problem in holding off the covering left-back to slot home. Haydon Roberts missing from the backline and it shows.

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    A pass straight to the opposition, then lost his man who went round the back of him, then a blatant shirt pull. Not good from No. 4 (Tsoungui?) Brilliant diving save by McGill. It's been men against boys in this first quarter, although for us Moran has caught the eye with three...

    [Albion] U-23's pre-season friendly v Sutton United, Thursday morning, training ground; live stream

    Bad error by our No. 6 at the back. Passes it straight to their man who outmuscles him then a tidy finish. 1-0 Sutton.
