Chelsea U18s beat Huddersfield U18s 6-1 in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup, which they're defending. The makeup of Chelsea's side is a bit like senior Man U at the moment in that there's an absolutely obscene amount of attacking talent but significantly less in defence. Still, when you can field Jeremie Boga, Charly Musonda, Charlie Colkett, Izzy Brown, Dom Solanke and Tammy Abraham, you're near guaranteed to outgun just about any opposition that comes your way. If they get and can take the chance - which is highly doubtful with Mourinho at the helm, but let's hope for a miracle - so many of these players have the potential to go on to major things.

Sounds like the Chelsea U18s are actually showing it though ¬¬

I'm Crystal Palace fan, and if you're that, then wtf are we? :) I've more seen you as the team that should, but most very often didn't. ;)

2-1 versus Spurs. Never forget.

We haven't had a squad this good for years. Song will be key but I don't know if we'll be able to keep him. Don't think Kouyate or Poyet are quite there yet.

Edit: It'd be just like us to concede against ten men.

Troy Baker on MGSV. Yikes.

Perfect time to sell Coleman if Everton go out of the cup. Literally nothing to play for this season so may as well cash in at an inflated price and start the rebuild for next season six months early.

Sure it wasn't Troy Baker on his wide open asshole? He might be a good voice actor but fuck that guy, full of shit. Don't get over hyped by people involved with it, will end up with a MGS4 like backlash.

How's John Stones been playing this season, Everton fans? For whatever reason I haven't ended up watching too many non-Chelsea games recently and am always interested in seeing how these prospects do in their second season when they're better known and under a little more pressure.

Remember when people said barkley was good

Sensational times.

He was good though. I don't understand your point.

FF pls

Was wonderful during the start the of the season until a long term injury hit him. Came back 3 weeks ago and haven't been stable. He is a prospect. Hope he doesn't fill his head with fantasies like Barkley and end up being an hindrance

This is just not meant to be for Everton tonight.

Does he have a part in the game?

He plays Ocelot.

I am already over hyped. Kojima wants to make this game. He didn't want to make MGS4. And he didn't get to go with ending he wanted.


I believe. FF believes. He tells me Kojima won't let us down.

I'm right farid pls.
 
Drew and Dan are really growing on me on the Bombcast. Dan is great when he's just being a normal person, rather than being asked to revel in his idiocy.

By the way this post from yesterday... I knew you would turn around at one point Hitcher. Drew doesn't play much but is a pretty cool guy and the games he plays are usually interesting and different from the rest. Dan is just great all around, also for the stupidity.

Do you listen to Idle Thumbs?

Starting to get a little bored of all the deep indie talk and off-hand AAA dismissal

If Kojima wanted to give it up, he would have. Even if Konami wouldn't let him do something else, another publisher would.

Kojima's the Vice President of Konami.
No idea what he'll do when Silent Hills releases (in 2017?). He'll be mid-50s and I know he's talked in the past about writing a novel.
 
I've never played a Mass Effect game but the original is on PSN for £3.

Should I give it a go?

3 of the best games of the generation. Perhaps the best series of the generation.

The shooting controls are much tighter after the first game btw. Absolutely give it a go for £3 though.
