I never said that Suso was MOM.

Check the thread again.

Sterling was most definitely MOM, but Suso IMO is still the best player in that team. We just look at different things I guess.

We have been reinstated to this competition as Tottenham have withdrawn apparently.
[/quote]Justice done as we should have beaten them easily

It's hardly 'justice'. They scored more goals than us, whoever does that deserves to go through in football. Which is exactly what half this board were saying following our United victory.

but based upon the game the other night, we deserved to go through!

is it just me or is themn a tad obsessed with neil?! or at least seems highly irritated by him...

anyway: neil, i'll let you know whenever a meeting's being arranged, but what do you mean you alternate between the two?! where do you actually live?

I live in london but spend some time in liverpool so it depends when I'm available.

themn is cool and the anger is part of his charm 🙂

right. well, as i say, there's a possible meet-up on monday. it currently depends on Spion and Red Astaire confirming, because at the moment it's just me and Brizzle and i'm not sure if either of us can be arsed making the effort just for 2 of us, so if you can make it let me know.

The achilles' heel of that team is the same as the senior squad- great play, dominating matches and all that, but nowhere near enough goals.

Highly debatable, to the point of being, 'not a fucking chance'. Peter had it right, Adjoran is as good if not better. I don't get the Suso hype and I'd be surprised if he becomes a first team player.

working late, which is a pity.
have you heard of a pub called 'the extra time'? full of london reds.
 
Looks like spurs have withdrawn from the competition due to accidental breaking of competition rules so we are through.....

The Daily mail angle:

Liverpool and Spurs row simmers after Londoners break NextGen team rules
By BOB CASS
Last updated at 10:00 PM on 4th February 2012

Tottenham and Liverpool are involved in a row on the eve of their Premier League confrontation at Anfield on Monday night.
The bust-up arose after Liverpool lodged a protest about Spurs fielding two ineligible players during the NextGen Under-19s quarter-final last week, which the Londoners won by the only goal.
Rather than contest the issue, Spurs withdrew, handing Liverpool a semi-final tie against Barcelona or Ajax. But there is anger at White Hart Lane at Liverpool’s behaviour.

Disappointed: Spurs' NextGen boss Tim Sherwood
Spurs unknowingly fielded two under-age players in the game in which Liverpool included players recruited for substantial transfer fees.
A Spurs statement said: ‘It is with regret that we have decided to withdraw from the NextGen tournament due to an accidental breach of a competition regulation’.
Tim Sherwood, Tottenham’s technical co-ordinator and manager of their NextGen team, said: ‘It is disappointing.’
Mark Warburton, head of football for NextGen, said: ‘This is unfortunate. However, we can only applaud Tottenham for demonstrating such impeccable levels of sportsmanship.’

I thought they were disqualified for fielding an unregistered player?
 
So

(1) Liverpool lodged a protest, Tottenham did not admit/realize it themself
(2) Tottenham were praised not for their honesty but for not contesting the complaint (would they have won it though, given its not 1 but 2 ineligible players)

Viktor Fischer from last night:

The NextGen Series | FC Barcelona - Ajax 0-3 | All goals 8-2-2012

His eye for goal is outstanding, almost poacher like, this despite beeing more of an attacking midfielder as a type.

And with an Eriksen like pass on him as well this lad shows more than a little promise. Hopefully we've been hot on his heels after his showings on last years U17 Euro's. At least they can't say we didn't told them.
