Under-18s report: Chelsea 1 West Ham 0
Sat 1 Oct 2016
Our youth team made it 14 home league wins in a row with a hard-fought
victory over West Ham at Cobham this morning (Saturday).
Jody Morris's side dominated for long periods but struggled to break down
a resilient rearguard to create significant opportunities. Ike Ugbo netted
the only goal of the game after 16 minutes but it required a battling
effort in the second half after Dujon Sterling was dismissed after an
hour. However, the Blues held on to return to winning ways following a
draw last time out.
With three weeks between games for our development squad, there were
maiden youth team appearances this season for Trevoh Chalobah, Mason Mount
and Ugbo. The trio were joined in the starting side by fellow second-years
Josh Grant, Cole Dasilva, Luke McCormick, Jacob Maddox and Harvey St Clair
as Jody Morris's line-up hinted at what our FA Youth Cup side could look
like this term.
Chalobah and Grant formed the centre-back partnership protecting Jamie
Cumming in goal, with Sterling and Dasilva operating at right-back and
left-back respectively. The youngsters lined up with a diamond in
midfield, McCormick at the base with Mount and Maddox more advanced and
St Clair in behind strikers Ugbo and Martell Taylor-Crossdale.
The Blues started well in the relentless Surrey rain as skipper Mount
linked play effortlessly from midfield, regularly finding the runs in
behind of St Clair, Ugbo and Taylor-Crossdale. The 17-year-old provided
the first test for Sam Howes, the Hammers goalkeeper, who parried his
fierce drive from the right away from danger before holding on to a strike
that skimmed along the wet surface.
It was no surprise to see Mount involved in the game's opening goal after
a quarter of an hour. He quickened the tempo on halfway with a series of
quick passes before St Clair supplied an incisive pass forward for
Taylor-Crossdale. The striker looked to round the onrushing Howes, who
slid in to dispossess him, however the loose ball fell kindly for Ugbo to
sweep into an empty net.
The hosts continued to enjoy the bulk of possession but struggled to break
down the defence of a side that came into the game three points and two
places above the Blues in the southern section. Mount fired over before
Taylor-Crossdale's volley was well blocked and then the striker's flicked
attempt was cleared to safety.
West Ham's biggest threat came from set-pieces and Morris's side were
forced to scramble clear a teasing free-kick after Ben Johnson had drawn a
foul from Grant. The second period followed a similar theme but the
elusive second goal could not be conjured. Taylor-Crossdale was inches
away from bringing down St Clair's centre before Ugbo's effort at goal was
comfortable for Howes.
West Ham captain Tunji Akinola made a vital intervention to thwart the
danger from Taylor-Crossdale but the balance of the game altered after the
hour mark as the hosts were reduced to 10 men. Sterling was the man given
his marching orders after two bookings in quick succession for dissent
shown to the referee.
However, we continued to create the better opportunities as the game
progressed. Substitute Charlie Brown's deflected shot looped over the bar,
while St Clair did have the ball in the back of the net after 70 minutes
but the linesman's flag ruled it out for offside after a burst forward
from defence from Chalobah.
St Clair skewed a great chance wide from close range moments later before
the visitors rallied in the final 10 minutes as they searched for an
equaliser. Johnson found some space but fired high and wide, while Jahmal
Hector-Ingram's only real sight in the game was snuffed out as he looked
to test Cumming.
A series of corners in stoppage time had Chelsea hearts in mouths,
particularly when Grant challenged keeper Howes in the air at the front
post. Yet our youngsters battled determinedly to claim all three points
and leapfrog the Hammers into third in the league table, while extending
their unbeaten home league record to 22 matches.

Under-18s reaction: Capitalising control
Mon 3 Oct 2016
Our youth team moved up to third in the Under-18 Premier League southern
section table with a 1-0 victory over West Ham at the weekend.
Jody Morris's youngsters were in command and led courtesy of Ike Ugbo's
16th-minute opener, before a red card shown to Dujon Sterling swung the
balance of the contest. Afterwards, Morris reflected on three points won
but highlighted areas for improvement throughout his experienced side,
which consisted of nine second-years and just two first-year scholars.
'We had a huge share of possession in the first half which we should have
used a lot better,' Morris told the official Chelsea website. 'It's one
thing to have possession but we lacked urgency off the ball when we
reached the final third, we didn't move the ball as quick as we should
have and turned down opportunities to cross the ball. We had total control
but we should have caused them a lot more problems and scored more goals.
'It was nice to come in 1-0 up at half-time and it was a good finish from
Ike but we were a bit disappointed overall. We then started the second
half a little slowly and lacked a bit of intensity with our press from the
front, which has been quite good this year.
'The sending-off comes after an hour and that's something we'll have to
look at because two yellow cards for dissent in the space of 10 seconds is
just not acceptable.'
Yet the manager was pleased with the reaction of his side when faced with
a numerical disadvantage, as they battled on to record a 14th consecutive
home league victory. The win also takes them to 22 games unbeaten at
Cobham stretching back to April 2015, although Morris cautioned against
getting carried away with such a record when the young Blues have yet to
pick up a victory on their travels this term.
'We defended really well when our backs were against the wall. Josh Grant
and Trevoh Chalobah were very good at centre-half, while Reece James came
on to slot in at right-back and did well.
'It's a home record to be proud of because everybody wants their home
pitch to be a bit of a fortress and to be difficult to beat. However, I'm
also looking more at our away performances now and I'd certainly be a lot
happier if we improved those as well.'
The youngsters return to action on Saturday 15 October when Reading visit
Cobham. Kick-off has been altered to the earlier time of 10.30am. Our
development squad will be in Premier League 2 action the previous evening.
They travel to Leicester City.
Meanwhile, two Chelsea Academy youngsters have signed their first
professional contracts at the club in recent weeks. Charlie Brown and
Marcin Bulka, summer acquisitions from Ipswich Town and Poland
respectively, have put pen to paper on deals that run until the summer of
2019.
