Gillingham dominated but the visitors almost grabbed an unexpected equaliser on the half-hour mark when Troy Parrott's overhead kick hit the post.
Every week and he gets a little bit closer

Never heard or seen him before today and he looks quite promising from what I saw.
He looks too cocky to worry about that plus the club treat kids better now?
Might be worth looking up his tackle/assault on Drinkwater!
That was Devine , was Davies I was talking about.
Watched it Live when Devine took him out was great :mourlmao:
Sorry...it was Gazza like
I'm not familiar enough with Chelsea youth to know.
But the Chelsea commentators were full of stories of some of their players scoring several wonderful goals in previous matches and familiar with the individual players - no mention of xyz being missing at all.
And comments at the end were that Spurs were too good - even abandoned the 'referee shouldn't have given a goal' or 'surely that was a foul' as they had been commenting in the first hour ......and no mention of missing players.
Worth commenting Spurs were missing a couple of players such as Jordan Hackett (LB) and often captain of England u17's too. It happens.
There's no international tournaments on so I'd have thought Chelsea fielded many/most of their best players, even if they were trying out others (although no comment from Chelsea commentators saying that).
Either way it was 6 - 1 and could have been in double figures so dominant were Spurs, and Chelsea commentators totally confident at the start of the match.
Worth saying that before lockdown we got to see bits of what is now Spurs u16's and they are thought to be have players of a similar calibre to the year above (now Academy Year One).
Seven of them capped at E u15 or u16, which is a good sign :
Luke Gunter (GK) - E u15. Signed a 3 year scholarship at Spurs in June, very early
Alfie Dorrington (CB) - often E u15 captain, signed a 3 year scholarship at Spurs in June 2020 - very early.
Brandon Bryan-Waugh (CB) E u16
Tom Bloxham midfielder E u15
Billy Heaps midfielder E u16
Owen Riley (CAM) E u15
Jamie Donley (E u15 and N Ireland u16 striker).
Jamie Donley has already played and scored at Spurs u18 level....as a 15 year old.
Looks like Chelsea might need to get used to being second best at u18 level !

Great move for the first. 8 passes from one side to the other and back again to create the space in the box. I can't work out how many players were involved. Lovely chest down half way through.
What a free kick.
Unfortunately Troy's kick not in the only highlights reel that I could find.

Just noticed this from last month.
Every academy will have cases of 10 or 11 year olds they let go who went on to big things I should think. At age 10 it is a bit of a guessing game who will train on and who will fall away.
