Don't be daft mate, they deffo said it was.Shit sorry, sure they said it would be
I've just watched a 14 minute segment on Tony Daley's favourite UB40 tracks so not all is lost.
Just watched the game on Spursplay...
First goal came from a good run by Santiago who then set up Lankshear for a shot and Santiago scored the rebound. First half passed Scarlett by a bit but we were in control. Their goal came from a good break just after half time, hard to really blame anyone for it, was just a good break. Villa had a bit more of the ball 2nd half. We should have had a 2nd from a Santiago corner that Lankshear flicked on and Donley fumbled it in to the keeper's arms from a yard out. Santiago constantly caused problems playing right on the touchline and had the beating of his man on the outside, created a couple of good chances for Lankshear in the air.
2nd goal came after Hall broke the lines through the middle before laying it wide for JSB who played a perfect ball in to Donley to score a first time finish. Santiago made another chance for himself after skinning the Villa right back with a great bit of skill but hit the shot at the keeper. Soonsup-Bell also had a chance to get one after a brilliant pass from Donley but went just wide.
Did get a 3rd late on after Santiago wins the ball from a high press and Lankshear tucked home.
Yago Santiago MOTM for me, completely dominated the left side match up against Triston Rowe, who's an England u18 international RB. Knew when to take on his man, knew when to recycle the play, excellent delivery and didn't stop running. Quality.

Nice summary, will give it a watch myself.
Does Werner do anything that Santiago can't ? I see a very similar footballer.

Having watched the game I agree entirely with the above. Santiago head and shoulders best player on the pitch. Thought we quite poor tbh and the shoe horning of Scarlett into the side didn't work. Bless old Dante... Like a competition winner playing alongside professionals.

Irow, Hardy and Byfield selected - all expected to be in next season's Academy Year 1
Woolwich provide 5 players, Spurs 3, Chelsea 2, ManU 2 and Mancity 1 player - last 3 clubs tend to contribute more players usually !. Southampton and Brighton both with 2 players selected
Moore back from injury and first start for Luca Williams-Barnett! Hardy also keeps his place after impressing against Saints u18s last month. Also Warren's first start in goal.
