Man City EDS 6-0 Arsenal U21s - City go top of the Premier League 2

Manchester City’s Elite Development Squad blew away previously unbeaten Arsenal 6-0 at the Academy Stadium to go top of the Premier League 2 standings.

It seemed a tough return to action for Brian Barry-Murphy’s side was in store, but a scintillating first-half showing had City EDS leading 5-0 at the break thanks to braces from Alex Robertson and Carlos Borges with Dire Mebude also getting amongst the goals.
