FA Youth Cup ITV4 tonight

[gavin]

Programme starts at 19.30 allegedly. I say allegedly as it is listed most places except the ITV4 website which says Chelsea v Blackburn is on on some of their pages but not all. Anyway City are 2-1 up from the first leg.

[Ludo]

4-3 up on aggregate now but Arsenal probably playing the more fluent football.

[gavin]

Yes, it was a tight game but City are through. Well done the lads.

[Gareth]

Pretty even game. Made it a bit easier after they went down to 10...

[Ludo]

To be honest it's hard to see many of them making the step to the first team.

Possibly Adarabioyo or Humphreys but that's it.

[Swiss]

I thought arsenal looked the better passers, tacklers and all round stronger players.
Diaz looks as though he could be a mercurial talent. A few others looked decent...

Amazed that you left out Brahim Diaz, the kid isn't 17 until August and is a top prospect. Nmecha also looks to have great potential, just turned 17.

Arsenal were an older side, and a year can make a big difference at that age but our lads overcame that and in the 2nd half could have had 2 or 3 more goals.

[Ludo]

I'm really only judging them on last nights performance where I thought Diaz showed a fair bit of skill at times but his tendency to do too much let him down. I didn't realise he was so young though, so maybe it's being a bit harsh.

[Gareth]

Looks like Chelsea in the final, 4-0 up on aggregate in the 2nd half...

Edit 4-1 now, doesn't really change things though...
