FA Youth Cup semi-final

[NattyBlue 44]

Away goals don't count for double. We really could've done without them scoring the 2nd but Pogba was VERY good. He impressed me, I've never seen him play before.

It was a fantastic game, again the youth team showing how Chelsea should be playing. Do not underestimate this United team, they are a very good team and Pogba especially is a talent. To go to Old Trafford with a lead is a very good result for us. We was missing Pappoe and Clifford for this game too, both would have offered big contributions to the game. Pappoe would have make things much more solid at the back and Clifford has been a revelation in the youth cup this season.

We have a great chance of going through and i am confident because this team, like last season, are a team with real spirit and determination to go with their ability on the pitch. And yes as someone mentioned we do have a small team, we focus more now on the players ability that their physical attributes and we have drawn great success from that (Despite one newspaper report i read saying Chelsea had the more physically imposing players - what game were they wathing)......

Having Pappoe back and pushing Chalobah into midfield should help us, Clifford is still a big miss though.

Heres the highlights incase anyone has yet to see it:

Very true Esk, I would be a lot more confident if Clifford was fit.

With Pappoe back though as you said we will move chalobah back into midfield. I think we should retain Ince in the starting XI too though.

It's pretty funny how Arsenal's youth team is full of beasts while ours is full of rather small yet skillful players. I think we will advance to the final as well. The boys never give up and have shown they have real quality.

I am also impressed with Adam Nditi, he's only like 15 and has looked very good.

We are playing good so far,a bit nervous up front though.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Kalas has been very good. McEachran some great touches and passes so far. Saville has been disappointing though, alot of sloppy passes.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Saville has got to get subbed off, horrible game so far. Almost every Man U chance has been because of him giving away the ball cheaply. Hasn't had 1 good pass in the first half.

Goal for Man U, nasty deflection. Lucky goal for them. 3-3 on aggregate now.

Another goal, bad defending. 2-0 and 4-3 on aggregate. Chelsea in trouble now.
