Hmm, maybe I decided that!
Academy V Newcastle FA Youth Cup
- Thread starter Inigo Montoya
- Start date
Charlton and Folkes in the crowd. That sums up just what the club means!!!
Gary with some more humour. Surprised at how funny he is.
Close again. Cole this time.
Who needs to watch the match when you have my commentary?

FT. 35 shots in 90mins, 1 goal
Get the feck in. Morrisson > Sterling. You'll see. You'll all see.
Liverpool next, now that will be tasty.
Good result but a great performance some of the pass and move was delightful.

That was very entertaining. Haven't seen much of the youngsters this season but they impressed my a lot tonight.
Some terrific prospects out there, need to give them time and they'll flourish. So feck off Sky. 
Yeah it's a bit strange obviously he's still adjusting but he hasn't really shown any particular moments of magic yet and doesn't seem very pacey for a winger maybe he's just trying to keep it simple but I'd like to see him try to do a bit more
Love Gazza, he would be too biased for anything other than MUTV.
Crazy and that's without Keane & Cofie
I find it increasingly hard to not get excited about a midfield trio consisting of Pogba, Tunnicliffe and Morrison.
It's starting to really feel like they could all make it here.
I was a bit disappointed with Newcastle, a lot harder game away at Liverpool and we'll have to be more clinical to progress and will be tested far more defensively.
I hope we will get highlights ASAP! 35 shots on goal...
35 shots on goal...Is there a date set for the quarter-final at Anfield?
Nope, date and venue to be confirmed..
That's no good. Did they say how long he is expected to be out for?
Yeah the game showed we lacked a striker in fairness.
Ben Hibbs twitter says Cofie is out for a few weeks.
He only had the surgery on Monday so prob 3/4 weeks I'd guess.
March 2nd at Anfield is what I'm hearing, although far from confirmed
Match report.
Anyone see the sort of strange discussion/chat/altercation between Pogba and Morrison at the end. Seemed like Rav had some problem with Pogba. Probably nothing, but did anyone else pick up on it?
Wouldnt worry about that man. If its a barney regarding the match & nothing personal, then thats healthy!
Just saw Morrisons goal - very tasty indeed. He needs to push on now tho, he's 18 & you'd like to be seeing potential like him pushing for first team outings next season.
Problem we have tho, is unlike many teams in the League, our squad is brimming with quality, whereas, other teams have to throw young players into the melting pot because of lack of resources!
I'd love to see some of this great young talent we have, save us fortunes in the near future. Problem is, we've seen so many great young lads with great potential leave the club in recent years, when it looked odds on they'd make it, so there's a bittuva question mark how they will fare playin in the first team, when the pressure is extraordinary!
Pogba for me, is the only one who is guaranteed to be a first teamer. He's a class apart at his age level. He could play first-team football no problem. He has that self-confidence & nothin fazes him. Cleverely has a fantastic chance also, and his season at Wigan will pay dividends for us next season. He's gotta a wicked football brain - same kind of touch & awareness that Rooney has in tight situations too!
I like Will Keane also, he's gotta great chance also!!

What about Tunnicliffe??
It looked to me that Morrison was celebrating the win and Pogba looked a bit downbeat.
Pogba seems to sulk a bit on the pitch when things don't go his way and maybe he was a bit disappointed with his personal performance, who knows? Not really worth speculating about.
He's a good player, but at this point Pogba has the physique, skill & athleticism to make it. Tunnicliffe played very well, but time will tell!
They're two different players mate. Pogba is better creatively though Tunnicliffe has drive/determination and is not as flashy, but is capable of quality. They compliment each other well. Both are capable of getting goals. Pogbas scored some great goals at academy/reserve level.
It's scarey isn't it? No mention of james, cleverly, petrucci, brady, ajose, keane, king, cofie, morrison etc. They play some great stuff and 35 efforts on goals is fantastic at any level. Even if newcastle were poor, when you are that good it's very hard sometimes. Pity we could only score one but we've seen that alot down the years

Didn't the commentator say something about being back by april ?
Great strike!
Highlights
That's what I call proper highlights.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Blackett's pretty smooth on the ball, isn't he?
Yeah, he's come on very well of late, and forced his way in ahead of Fryers and McGinty on merit.
