Not sure if any of your teams have played there Youth games yet but Chelsea Youth just beat Basel Youth 4-0. Hopefully that competition gets some courage, even if it is only from the knock out stages onwards, would be nice to see the kid teams play eachother.

With all the groups being made up of the teams currently in Champions league and using the Champions league groups as the youth groups.....Ajax Barcelona AC Milan group, would be awesome to watch those Youth teams go at it!

You can check the standings for the Youth League here: http://www.uefa.com/uefayouthleague/season=2014/standings/index.html

It's a very cool idea.

The idea is cool, but the set-up blows. Only teams that participate in the regular CL can partake in the youth CL which really blows for countries that have excellent youth academies but not a lot of spots for participation. This way the leagues will get even more segregated while leagues like these could actually support less segregation between the leagues.

If Ajax don't become champions then their 'world-renowned youth academy'-teams can't even play in this. Same for other teams in Holland like Feyenoord who have a great youth academy.

Agreed Twisted it makes no sense at all. It's the CHAMPIONS league it's supposed ti be for the best teams of Europe regardless of how their first team performs.

Agreed. IMO they should introduce a whole new system of coefficients for youth teams in Europe. That way the youth leagues will gain/lose qualifying spots just like the senior sides. Although I guess not all countries run youth leagues in the same manner, so that might be impossible to coordinate.

COYG. I'd like our team to go full out, get a comfortable lead and then sub off the important people and win this game. I'd rather we rotate our squad vs Stoke than tonight/tomorrow.


It won't be that easy, unfortunately. Marseille aren't exactly pushovers. They have crazy talent like Mathieu Valbuena and the Ayew brothers.

That's not to say that I don't think Arsenal will win, I just think that it will be a tightly contested game.

Marseille: Mandanda, Fanni, Nkoulou, Mendes, Morel Imbula, Romao, Payet, Valbuena, A.Ayew, Gignac

Subs: Samba, Mendy, Cheyrou, Lemina, J.Ayew, Thauvin, Khalifa

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Flamini, Ramsey, Wilshere, Ozil, Walcott, Giroud

Subs: Fabianski (GK), Vermaelen, Monreal, Jenkinson, Hayden, Akpom, Miyaichi

Three kids on the bench. Get well soon, Ox, Podolski, Arteta, Cazorla. ;____;

It is fun because both teams are very related in their evolution.


Haha yeah, we both pretty much play the same type of football. Looking forward to the match even though we'll probably get destroyed. We can't turtle up like Celtic do, not our style. I'm just hoping that we do well against my second favorite team. Either way, I won't be disappointed should we lose.

Just printed out my tickets for all Ajax' home games in the CL this season . 1 October Ajax - AC Milan as first match.


How is Ajax lining up these days? I see that Siem de Jong is back already, but they just lost Toby Alderweireld and Christian Eriksen near the end of the transfer window.

Lost a lot of quality with Eriksen and Alderweireld like you said and we don't really have adequate replacements. Bojan isn't playing well at all and our striker sigthorsson isn't either. The one who had to replace Alderweireld, Van der Hoorn, isn't good enough yet.

Basically nobody really thinks we have any chance.

God fucking damn it I hate TV in the States so much. Fucking Barca/Ajax and Milan/Celtic are on TV and not The Arsenal/Dortmund games. What the fuck.

You have Milan-Celtic? I have Barca-Ajax and Chelsea-Basel :x

I guess Chelsea have a lot more American fans than Arsenal do :x

Then I see on my stream that viewers on Sky get every game on live TV...the jealousy ;__;

Haha they already have flares lit off in Napoli-Dortmund : D

great atmosphere in napoli
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother

Not entirely sure what was that Klopp outburst all about there :D
Imagine a place where the Alps meet the Mediterranean, where you can pick autumn fruits in the morning, bathe in the Adriatic in the afternoon, and go night skiing in the evening…It’s Slovenia!
