FA Cup

Excellent draw, wanted goons in the final.

However, the nightmare scenario is still there, beat chavs then lose to goons in final. Lets pray for dreamland, beat chavs and then beat goons in Wengers last match. COYS!!!

 

Yep, got to beat Chelsea at some time to win it I think. Might as well be the semis. I think the winner of our semi will be the favourite.

 

Spurs and Chelsea are capable of beating each other, as proven over the last few seasons. It will boil down to who handle the occasion better. I believe this is the day that Spurs stand tall and overcome their Wembley jinx.

 

Saul, Robertson, Berbatov, Woodgate, some good memories of playing the Chavs at Wembey.

By the way, their new stadium looks interesting........

 

Nice that they have conceded the semi and printed it on their pitch

 

Loved the draw. If it all goes to plan, we stuff Chelsea in the semi and then butcher Arsenal in Wenger's final game in charge.

I bet when Kante was told he'll be facing Wanyama again in a few weeks he immediately began looking for ideas of a way to get out of the match. Doesn't want anything to do with our spaghetti eating destroyer. Fiver says Kante gets red carded in Chelsea's match before the semi!

 

Our FA Youth Cup semi-final against Chelsea is on TV tonight.
It's live from White Hart Lane, kick-off's at 7.15pm and it's on ITV4.

 

Thanks

 

Got course work to do for my job so that will make for a good bit of background noise...cheers

 

Edwards is eligible, but thought to be above this level, so he played for the U23s last night, instead.

 

I hope Spurcat's not watching this. Some criminal haircuts and attempts at facial hair on display!

 

You're welcome

 

Exactly my first thought at seeing the Chelsky prat run over by the
double yellow line machine.

 

1-0 Chelsea. They've been good value for that.
Their players are pressing very well and the system seems to suit them.
Need a change to either the personnel or the tactics to get back into this, in my opinion.

 

They look older than our boys, looks like their players are more prgressed. Our No11 looks decent.

 

2-0 Chelsea. That's about right, I think.
They're a very good side and have dominated the first half.

 

2-0 HT. Quite a gulf in quality and physical attributes on display, so far.
Our academy's been producing a few very good players, but doesn't seem to have the depth of a few others.
We'd benefit far more from it than Chelsea, City and the like too, as we've demonstrated that the kids can make it into the first team.

 

Physically it looks like men against boys and technically they seem stronger as a team. Interesting to see how our lot develop over time

 

Half-time sub. Shashoua replaced by Duncan. Needed to change something, so let's hope it helps.

 

And their reward? Several years of loans, before an apologetic move to Crystal Palace.
