that's next tuesday, chelsea is tomorrow.

it's annoying that the youth cup game is on the same night that the first team play. can't see many spurs fans turning up at stevenage tomorrow, there'll probably going be more chelsea fans there for what is supposed to be a "home" game for us.

That's actually a bloody strong team. We'll probably still get mullered, we always do against that lot.

only watched the first half and last 15 but chelsea were the better side and deserved to win. we did have a few spells and a couple of good chances late on but we struggled to make any impact in the final third. was a closer game than last year's though so that's something. lyons-foster was hands down our best player based on those 60 minutes, i don't know if i'm just getting suckered in by the swagger and confidence he has on the ball but he's looked mightily composed every time i've seen him. hinds, eyoma(missed a point-blank header late on though) and skipp all did well enough. reynolds really struggled first half but was constantly left on his own against sterling, tob had the odd good touch here and there but was otherwise invisible, maghoma was sloppy all night but forced their keeper into a good save towards the end, patterson ok but ineffective, bennett at least tried to get at them but wasn't getting much change out of either full back and griffiths barely touched the ball.

Think I read somewhere he can't play for us until he's 16 as he would be a transfer from another club. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Awesome. Thanks taidgh. Looking forward to hearing of his progression. I try to hold back expectations of young players. To many variables in there. But from the very little I've seen of this lad, he looks the goods. Here's hoping.
And Poch's son has become a scout. Absolute gold!

Genuinely didn't even notice TOB. Maghoma seemed to have picked up later on. I think our defenders played well
