Chelsea 9 Man City 0

[north stand]

Chelsea's Under 15 side have caused a major stir with a staggering 9-0 win over their Manchester City counterparts.

The Premier League clubs have two of the best-resourced youth set-ups in English football, with both under pressure from new UEFA rules to produce homegrown players rather than spend huge sums on foreign imports.

Wow, thats some scoreline. My mates lad was at the dippers as an under 14 keeper and he watched our young uns there last year. We took 3 different age groups and all 3 battered there dipper counterparts. My mate said it was incredible to watch, proper men against boys stuff. The coach of the under 14`s told him he had never seen anything like it in his entire career, easily the best group of young players he had ever seen. Looks like the academy could have been a good investment after all.
