[FA Youth Cup] Sheffield United U18 9 - 0 Worcester City U18

[Foxy]

Cracking value for the £3 down at the Lane tonight with the youngsters battering Worcester City 9-0!

I'll not go into much detail yet, as DazBlade88 is kindly writing up a report, but we basically camped in their half and everyone in the side wanted to get their name on the scoresheet.

Any one know why Jake Eyre went off ?
Left us with 10 men for last ten minutes, mind you they still scored one .....

He hurt his ankle when he scored. He's been struggling with it recently, was only the second/third game of his recovery so I'm hoping it was only a precaution.

 

[SandyMcBlade]

Cheers Daz, I know he scored one that was off side but did he get a hatrick ?

We're loaning him out to Rochester United next week and they didn't want him playing the full 90 minutes.

He did indeed. His third was where he got hurt, so it was an eventful half an hour for him!

Have to feel for the lads, monsoon at Oldham and then this tonight. Daren't think what the Reebok will be like.

 

[billyblademan]

Well done to the younguns and the guys that went tonight in the conditions.

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

Well Nigel should be pleased with that result.

[Kenilworth]

Players attacking the box, players getting in front of the defenders to get to the cross first?
Players running at opposition defenders, taking on the one on one opportunities, three players attacking a cross for the second goal?

Whoda thought that was the way to play eh?

Piece of piss this football malarkey

 

[Sharrowblade]

Nice to see a few of the 1st team down there watching last night

 

[SandyMcBlade]

Hope they picked a few tips up...

 

[Northyorksblade]

How many were there, can't remember seeing it anywhere?

 

[SandyMcBlade]

Hard to say because every body, home and away fans were in the south stand, but I've seen a lot less in the away end for a league game..

So... Calvert-Lewin... looks a bit good he does. How close to making a breakthrough are we talking?

A lot further than you'd think. He certainly has the talent - he just needs to be more consistent with it. I would expect him to be around the first team in pre-season to give him some experience and then potentially a loan move or plenty of U21 football before he gets a chance to play for the first team.

Was he the 7 with the black sleeves? Thought he looked decent.

 

[Houso]

He was the lad who scored the two chips.
