Watching this on http://cricfree.tv/euro-sports2.php

1-0 to the Arsenal so far, nice goal finished by Akpom. Chav defence looks all over the place, we're walking through at times. Should have had 1 or 2 more.

Pitch is absolutely shocking though. What was the point of sending two teams all the way over there to play on a sandpit.

1nil to the Arse... Akpom.

Oddly the chavs playing patient tippy tappy, whilst young guns are being direct and physical....sound familiar :shock:

Pitch is a disgrace for a tournament featuring the so called future superstars :oops:

The tv commentators seem to be suggesting that our players are technically inferior to the chavs and that ours are all about running and power :roll:

Can only assume they're either basing that on a pre-conceived idea (cant see how it could be based on today's evidence) or it's just stewart robson being a *word censored*. Chavs have lost the ball countless times in dangerous areas through a poor touch or shite pass & failed to really open us up at all. The best moments of technical quality have all been ours - Olsson's through ball that took out 3 chavs etc. I've seen our youth/reserve defence look scarily bad at times but I've never seen them anywhere near as disorganised as this chav one. On a better pitch we'd have been clean through 10+ times.

Half time,it's 1-0 to the Arsenal

The pundit is Robson, the c**t never misses an opportunity to slag us off, if you shut your eyes you'd think he was talking about Stoke :evil:

The pitch is a disgrace and the way it's going the players are going to pick up an injury. I wonder if Burton has chosen to go more direct because the surface is too sh*t for tippy,tappy. :rubchin:

F**king d**khead Gnabry and that is why forward players should not tackle anywhere near the penalty area :roll:

We're getting stuffed!! It's like watching the first team play Man Utd!! :roll:

Chelsea are so far superior technically it could well get embarrassing.
Kiwomya for Chelsea looks very handy.

Shocking defending all round for the 3rd, especially the 2 full backs.

And why does Akpom have to try & turn the CB every time it's played into his feet. Hold the ball up when you need to ffs.
