Big win for the EDS tonight away at Spurs. Easy on paper but they never are especially when you go a goal down. That man Borges getting the equaliser before skipper Charles popping up to head the winner. Rare goal for Shea Charles.

With Chelsea losing tonight we are 4 points ahead of them and still two games in hand. Surely its a third title in a row for the EDS .

Sickening defeat in the FA Youth Cup. Played 110 minutes with 10 men. Came from behind to get to extra time and then sunk in the last minute.

Real shame. Our lads looked knackered during the ET period.

Fantastic free kick to make it 3-1. A good win v the scum, as they all are.

was sweet wasn't it. Should have been 4 or 5 up before they scored but it was great when he scored his first ever goal for the 18's with that free kick.

Now onto the EDS playing Chelsea today where a win clinches the title

Here’s Carlos Borges scoring again to make it 3-0. What a season he’s having.

The Chelsea game was full of quality and you could see why its the 2 top teams in the league. There could easily have been more than one goal in the first half and ahppily it was City who got it through Bobb.

2nd half I think we got a bit better and scored 2 great goals from Breckin and Borges and could have had more. Mebude was a constant threat down the right and of course Borges on the left. But for me Bobb has been the best player through the season often operating as a false 9 like he did today.

His movement on the ball is great to watch and his simple passes often create chances and goals. The one today for Borges was a good example. It seems such an easy pass and it is but so many players dont the the weight of pass or timing right.It's a talent he has.

Leagues effectively won now which will be 3 in a row. The 18's can emulate this if they beat Sunderland next week after they battered Utd at the weeeknd

See the under 18s have a GD of 60. Which is more than the rest of the league combined. Dominated doesn't do it justice
