Youth Team vs Villa

[El Jefecito]

lfc.tv has just posted the match highlights of the Semi-final and I have to say I was very impressed with our performance. Defensively we were a bit shaky, but then that was because Newcastle have some giants up front.

But going forward we were excellent. I reckon that based on that performance that our Youth team could have beaten Villa

The two players who really stood out where Jimmy Ryan and Ray Putteril. Jimmy plays in the middle and picking the passes through the middle seemed second nature to him, obviously he was helped by the excellent movement in front of him. He scored a great goal too.

Putteril ripped their RB several times and TBH performed better than I've seen from Kewell in a while. Heighway has been getting a lot of **** recently but based on that performance I have to say he's put together an awesome team who are playing a really good pass and move type of game.

I really think a few of these guys will make it through to the first team.

Has anyone else seen the highlights yet? Am I being over optimistic?

Think he meant Youth team v LFC team who played at Villa, and that he thought the youth team would have done a better job.

I disagree as theyd get kicked of the park by the way.

I hope the Arse win too as its probably the only time I will get a ticket for the Emirates!

Have you been ? It's a perfect example of how NOT to build a modern football stadium, the dictionary definition of a 'souless bowl'.

Are Arsenal leading from the first leg ?

Yeah Jamo, 1-0

[Red Star]

Not been yet. Want to go just to see what its like.

They are 1-0 up from the first leg. They don't play the 2nd leg until April 2nd, though, I think...

[Mr Tourette]

Me too.

think i might have a look at that as well. good chance to pick up some pointers on new stadium design as wll as checking out which young players will get criminally overlooked in the future.....

Arsenal got 38,000 in the first leg of the semi, can you imagine if they sold out 60,000 for a Youth Cup final ?

You have to admit that would be very impressive.

[El Jefecito]

Me too.

Think I may fly over for that. It'll be easier to get tickets, the youth team is playing really well and surely the cold weather will be gone by then (I live in florida so the blood has thinned and I can't handle anything lower than 70 degrees )
