I was on a night out in my HGV and managed to blag some wi-fi and got to see the second half. 

 

Wow! What a performance. We seemed very well organised at the back, fast and incisive in midfield and clinical in front of goal. Apart from a bit of a wobble when they scored their second, and we gave away a silly penalty, we outplayed Arsenal, who looked far less organised, and knew they were being well beaten, evidenced by the tetchy behaviour.

 

As someone else has posted, I hope our 1st teamers were taking notes, especially on the speed at which we responded to winning the ball and turning it into an attack. Yes, we did the "play it from the back" thing, but nowhere near as much, and nowhere near as ponderously.

 

The young lads are a credit to us, and to themselves. 

 

COME ON YOU UNDER-18s!

Looked at the U18 and u23 profiles on Ramstv. Remarkably few foreign born players. 2 Slovakia s, a fren human and a Slovenian. Honestly though we would have a few others but hey ho, a few future England and Ireland internationals perhaps. ??

Bit worrying when those fren humans start breaking into the team.

Rams qualify for the UEFA Youth League. In the knock out rounds, BT Sport usually show these games. Could be some good games if we progress! 

Not sure how the tournament tree works for it 

Will all the team that played against Arsenal, be eligible to play in the UEFA competition or will some have to miss out due to age restrictions?

The UEFA Youth League involves the Under-19 teams of the 32 UEFA Champions League entrants, joined by the youth domestic champions of 32 nations.

Under 19s so they will be eligible
