Not sure why Gibson has been excluded, had a decent enough pre-season for Man U with a great goal against Peterborough, and scored the equaliser from the spot for United reserves v Chelsea at the weekend. Has also made the bench for the first two senior games this season.

No Chris McCann also, but then saying that he is not one of Givens favs at the moment now is he ........
Darren Gibson 1987
Chris McCann 1987
Givens has already said that he is only selecting players that are eligible again next year. So anyone born before 1988 wasn't considered although technically available. In fact players born in 1986 are still eligible. However I agree with Givens selection policy.
Notable absentees are:
Anthony Stokes (Givens won't select him again I guess)
John Joe O'Toole

Yeah for once, I agree with Givens.
Are these games going to be on Sky? They showed some of earlier games, as we are in the same group as England. It will be nice to see if we have progressed a bit... Portugal looked great when they played us here.
no sign of mcgoldrick either??
be interesting to see where hes going to play judge..scored two for the reserves the other day from centre mid but can also play up front?
Are the U21's on TV tonight??
Don't think so.
2 down with 10 minutes to go
Givens has played the 4-3-3/4-5-1 system the last year or so now. I know he's not getting the results but I like that kind of system and happy to see a bit of variation at that level.
--- Gleeson --- Garvan --- McCarthy ---
Scannell ------ Sheridan ------ Treacy
That's not bad at all with all players available.
Bottom of the group after tonight's result.
Yeah thats a good under-21 top 6.
Especially from Garvan up.
Sheridan pulled out of the squad through injury, McCarthy can only play in the 2nd game, Gleeson was on the bench but will probably play the next game. Centre half Spillane will also join up with the squad for the 2nd game.
Anyway, that's currently an U19 lineup. They're just getting ready for the next campaign.
