I'm on holiday this week so I might go and watch this. Are 1882 going to be there, does anyone know?

EDIT - answering my own question by looking at the 1882 thread (duh), it seems they are. Awesome, I will try and get me a ticket.

Do you think Marcus Edwards will get a game?

Really keen to see him play, looks awesome from the clips I've seen!

Most likely from the bench - but Spurs are very protective of the younger players, and he's an u16 so might not appear for a game broadcast on a natiional channel (ITV4)

Was thinking just that. We'll want to get him tied down to a decent contract before showcasing his talent to a global audience!

Ha, think that all the top clubs will know of him, so that's not the concern. Its just that the club shields young players from the general public, so its very rare that the general public can see any match involving u16's or lower.

Really excited about this. Still stunned by how impressed I was with this team in the round of 16 match against Man U, and I'm delighted to have another chance to see them play.

Really hope Georgiou has made it back. Very fun to watch and seems to provide good balance along with Azzaoui.

From what I've heard, that Azzaoui is quite an exciting talent. Is he the Belgian striker?

Yes - very, very talented but I know I'm not the only one concerned about his attitude. Unlike the rest of our youth teamers he isn't one to go in for 50/50 challenges, chase down the opposition defenders, or pass when he has any kind of chance to shoot. That being said it can all be worked on and developed, whilst his actual ability is simply tremendous for such a young player.

Winger, with a style eerily similar to his compatriot Hazard, and yes he is supremely talented. Absolutely fearless and possesses a bag of tricks kids his age don't/can't even conceive of.

But yes, he does need to get a bit better about being a part of the whole. He is good at looking for the pass (pulls defenders with his quick feet running at them, and flicks into a teammate), but he doesn't defend much at all. Tellin ya, the similarities to a young Hazard are endless with this kid.

Looking forward to this. Not able to go, but hopefully a decent crowd for the lads tonight.

Last time I went to watch our U21 play Chelsea, all the fans were bunched together, most of the dads taking their kids - all pretty nice more than anything.

I'll go to the league game though.
