No worries all. I enjoy it!

Quite excited for the EDS game tonight. It's live on Sky Sports 1 v Chelsea. We'll probably lose as its a bit of a mix and match team at this level for us ATM and Chelsea are very strong, but itll be interesting at least.

We're one up after Celina curled one in from a free kick. Great goal
Out of our players it's been Ash Smith-Brown who has impressed me the most. Very solid at left back so far

Was fun that. We were a lot more organised than expected. Adarabioyo was absolutely huge at the back.

Wanted to put..... Adarabioyo was great at the back but didn't know how to spell his name . How they play out from the back is amazeballs . Great performance I enjoyed it .

Just got back (via kfc), great performance all round our keeper looks good some critical saves, only critiscm was number 4 looked a bit shaky and his distribution was poor, he looked almost rabbit in headlights when keeper passed it to him.

Well taken free kick for the first which any senior player would have been proud of scoring.

Ambrose missed a sitter moments before his goal which was brilliant too.

Sorry other than Ambrose I couldn't put names to faces, perhaps Doug or Twosips can oblige.

Number 4 was kean Bryan and is one of our better prospects imo. I like him and think he is very good.
Tosin is quality also and this was a very good result with the amount of players we can't select due to international and loans plus manu, barker and roberts being held back for the palace game.

I thought lawlor was excellent but imo he is not a patch on angus gunn.

The future is very bright

Cheers WW, defensively he was good but, the keeper kept on rolling the ball out to him to move up the pitch and he quite literally froze on a few occasions in the first half no idea where to play it.

Number 5 had to help him out a few times. Number six was very impressive with his passing and making attacks happen.

Number 11 reminds me of SWP but down the left, mainly fed by number 8?

Sorry like I say not familiar with names of EDS and no program or names on shirt didn't help! Guess I'm sacked from reporting team ;-)

That all said and done the future is very bright indeed.

Devante Cole slagging off City saying foreign kids favoured in the Academy. Sorry mate you just weren't good enough. Ever heard of Brandon Barker or Humphreys etc

I always thought that devante had something. I was surprised he went down to league 1 tbh. He also spent the last part of the season on the bench for mk dons and I believe that was mainly due to attitude.

You have to have some arrogance and selfishness as a goalscorer however, it seems decanter thinks that following his dad's lead is the best way.

If city only favoured imports and names pozo and lopes.... but they have been sold. Yet devante was offered a contract to stay. A little bit of a contradiction there I think.

He only got a place with us because of who his dad is. That place could have gone to someone with genuine talent.

He even admitted at the age of 18 to telling Vieira that he disagreed with what Patrick told him to do in front of the whole EDS team. So the attitude problem is no big surprise. He only has himself to blame and shifting it to us makes me doubt he'll ever make it to the PL level.
