Scored another 2 goals tonight. Always a good bet to score in the early rounds of cup matches for some reason...

Yeah I was wandering whether there's any need to be playing Lampard this match. They should have mixed it up a little bit, they had Ballack starting so was there a need for both? :unsure:

Di Santo, Mancienne, Sahar...not sure how many of them are at the club or if they are all out on loan.

Very strong line-up from Chelsea...

Portsmouth FC

D. James ˇ H. Hreidarsson ˇ N. Belhadj ˇ S. Distin ˇ G. Johnson ˇ N. Pamarot ˇ Y. Kaboul ˇ A. Mvuemba ˇ R. Hughes ˇ P. Crouch ˇ J. Utaka

Chelsea FC

P. Cech ˇ Alex ˇ J. Terry ˇ W. Bridge ˇ B. Ivanovic ˇ J. Belletti ˇ F. Malouda ˇ F. Lampard ˇ M. Ballack ˇ D. Drogba ˇ S. Kalou

seeing as how they lost the last FA youth cup final from Mancity I'd say yes... They are from all over the globe though....Sahar is supposed to be a huge talent

Fair play to Pompey, bit disappointed with Chelsea putting out virtually a first 11 available

Lampard is sheer class...not as good as he was but now he is turning it on again.

Talented footballers tend to score against mediocre opposition.

Think there's only Terry, Cech and Lampard there that have played most of Chelsea's games...

Drogba and Ballack just come back from injury. The rest are their backup players. :rofl:

I said the 3 that have been starting regularly. :moon:

Alex will only be starting because of Carvalho's injury.

Belletti isn't first choice RB, Bosingwa is now.

Drogba hasn't started all season I don't think, Anelka has.

Ballack is first choice but he's just come back from injury so needs playing time.

I don't consider Malouda first choice although he probably is.

Yeah but which ever way you cut it they're STILL in the starting 11 from what's available (except Belletti as I said myself :cheeky: ).

My point is that players like Ballack and Drogba understandable cos of returning from injury, but then why have Lampard there. Why have Cech, Malouda, Terry? Surely there's a few youngsters they could have played I don't know but they would have still had enough quality to beat the Pompey side Rednapp put out.

Dutch said about them getting to the youth cup final well Arsenal have the best youngsters except they play in the reserves not the youth side :) So they are not as good as people think <_<
