青年足總盃第五輪 https://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2017/01/ youth-cup-report--chelsea-v-sheffield-wednesday.html Youth Cup report: Chelsea 4 Sheffield Wednesday 0 Wed 1 Feb 2017 Our Under-18s booked themselves a place in the FA Youth Cup quarter-finals for the eighth year in a row following a comfortable victory at rainy Aldershot this evening (Wednesday). Goals from Trevoh Chalobah and Ike Ugbo were followed by strikes from Mason Mount, his fifth goal in the competition this season, and Callum Hudson-Odoi as the Blues cruised into the sixth round. Jody Morris's side will find out their last-eight opponents later this week as they prepare for a trip to either Middlesbrough or Leicester City. Morris made four changes and implemented a significant reshuffle as he switched to a 4-3-3 system, with much of the tinkering coming at the back as goalkeeper Jared Thompson replaced Jamie Cumming between the sticks. A back four was preferred to the 3-4-3 shape deployed in the fourth-round win at Birmingham, with Joseph Colley and Reece James drafted in at centre-back and right-back respectively. Colley was partnered by Chalobah, while Marc Guehi moved from a central role to start at left-back. Jacob Maddox and captain Mount retained their places in central midfield, with the addition of Luke McCormick to bolster the defensive mindedness of the side in the middle of the pitch. Hudson-Odoi and Ugbo remained in the side in attack, with Dujon Sterling moved into a more advanced wide-right role. Wednesday made just one change from their 3-0 win over Gillingham in round four and lined up with five at the back in an attempt to combat the attacking threat of the holders, who had scored 10 in two games in the competition to date. Their challenge would be not to repeat the errors of Birmingham and Cardiff in previous rounds against the Blues, defending strongly whilst maintaining an attacking threat of their own. Goalkeeper Dan Wallis had not conceded a goal in his side's first two ties but he was always going to be a busy man up against Morris's men. His first action of the night came after seven minutes as he dived well to his right to push away Mount's curling free-kick from 25 yards before an agile stop to palm Maddox's effort over the bar. The Blues kept up the pressure from the following corner, with Guehi's header cleared from close range, before Hudson-Odoi supplied dangerously from the left. The schoolboy's delivery to the far post was headed back across goal by James and Chalobah was on hand to break the deadlock with an acrobatic volleyed finish for his maiden Youth Cup goal. The pace, power and direct running of Sterling down the right was a constant cause for concern for the visitors, though the 17-year-old was unable to pick out Ugbo in the centre following a threatening advance after 20 minutes. The striker did fashion a sight at goal for himself moments before the half-hour mark, again after progress on the right side, but his rising drive flew narrowly wide. The hosts continued to probe and assert their technical quality on the tie as the half progressed. Guehi's forward pass was laid off nicely into the path of Mount by Ugbo and the two combined intricately before Wallis smothered the ball at the striker's feet. Wednesday, managed by former Everton defender Danny Cadamarteri, threatened only fleetingly. While energetic and tenacious in their approach, their best opportunity of the opening period came from Joe West's inswinging free-kick, headed harmlessly over by Joe Cook. Morris gestured for more urgency from his young charges and when they increased the tempo of the game, the Owls struggled to cope. Pushing for a second goal before the break, Mount struck the post with a brilliant individual attempt from distance after showing some eye-catching trickery before Hudson-Odoi's shot from the left deflected inches wide of the far post. The advantage was doubled four minutes before half-time and it arrived at the end of an incisive Blues counter-attack. Chalobah had taken a flailing arm in the face when challenging for a high ball at the back and the blow seemed to fire him into life. Regaining possession, the centre-half stepped boldly into midfield and started the break, charging forward into the box after laying the ball to Sterling on the right. The delivery was too strong for Chalobah but flighted perfectly for Ugbo to thump a header beyond Wallis and claim his 11th goal of the campaign. The traffic continued in a similarly one-way fashion in the second half, with Chalobah heading a great chance over the bar following Mount's dangerous inswinging corner. Mount then fired a left-footed shot just wide after advancing promisingly infield from the right before Chalobah nodded another header over. With chances sure to be at a premium for the visitors, the need to be clinical when the few came along was obvious. Hirst was handed a rare opportunity to test Thompson eight minutes after the restart from Liam Williams's centre but the England Under-18 striker skewed his strike harmlessly off-target. James's strike on the half-volley was well blocked as we pushed to add further goals to the scoreline, with Hudson-Odoi's strike troubling Wallis but arrowing just wide of the far post. It was 3-0 with 74 minutes on the clock and it was the skipper celebrating a goal for the third successive Youth Cup tie as he weaved between defenders and found the back of the net with a sweet strike. Morris introduced further attacking impetus for the final 15 minutes as he looked to expose the tired legs of the visitors, with George McEachran and Martell Taylor-Crossdale entering the fray. However, it was also down the other end that the holders recorded another impressive showing, having not conceded a goal yet in the competition this campaign. James defended well at the back post to keep that shutout intact before Hudson-Odoi finished expertly in added time to complete the scoring. Three clean sheets, 14 goals scored and another well-deserved win means our defence of the FA Youth Cup, a trophy we have lifted in five of the past seven seasons, continues determinedly. The young Blues return to action in the Under-18 Premier League this Saturday 4 February with a trip to Reading, in which a victory will guarantee their place in the elite play-off round. The following afternoon, our development squad also face the Royals in Premier League 2. Adi Viveash's side kick off at 12.05pm at Aldershot. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2017/02/ youth-cup-reaction--clean-sheets-and-competition.html Youth Cup reaction: Clean sheets and competition Thu 2 Feb 2017 Our youngsters advanced to the last-eight in the FA Youth Cup following a 4-0 victory against Sheffield Wednesday at Aldershot last night (Wednesday). A third successive clean sheet in this Cup run was built on with goals from four different scorers as Trevoh Chalobah, Ike Ugbo, Mason Mount and Callum Hudson-Odoi all netted. It took our tally of goals scored in the competition this term to 14 following consecutive 5-0 victories against Cardiff City and Birmingham City. Manager Jody Morris felt his side did more than enough to earn their place in the quarter-finals but he admitted they were far from their best against another defensive opponent. Speaking to the official Chelsea website after the game, he said: 'There were spells where we played some really good stuff and scored some lovely goals but there were also dips where we took our foot off the gas as far as our tempo was concerned. 'We moved the ball a little too slowly and looked a bit predictable at times, not switching the play enough after speaking about that beforehand. We had a 15-minute spell in the first half and about 10 minutes after half-time where the game became a bit dogged but you have to expect that against a team who are trying to slow the game down and upset our rhythm. When you're working with young teenagers, they can fall into that trap but we tried to stay on top of it and I was also really pleased with another clean sheet.' Mount's second-half strike took his Youth Cup tally this term to five, the joint-second highest in the competition, with the midfielder having netted in all three of our ties so far. Morris, himself a goalscoring midfielder who wore the number eight for the Blues in the Youth Cup, praised the impact of his captain in the final third and urged him to strive for more as we head towards the business end of the campaign. 'It's nice to see Mason continue his goalscoring run. When you rack up the goals in a competition like this, you do start to look around to other teams to see who else is scoring as many as you. I want him to stay hungry and keep on arriving into the box late because we know he has the ability to open up teams, whether it be with a pass, a bit of skill or a fantastic strike from distance. 'Trevoh scored a fantastic goal and he does give us that quality when he gets forward and that threat from set-pieces. You always need goals throughout the team but I'm more pleased to see an attacking player like Callum get his goal because he's been snatching a little at chances and that goal will be good for him going forward.’ Picking his starting side has proved far from simple for the manager as individuals continue to impress both for his league side and Adi Viveash's development squad, with neither side having lost a league game since September. It means the boss has tough decisions to make but he believes such difficulties are just par for the course at a top club. 'As a manager of a team at any level, you want competition for places and I quite like that it can remind a couple of those starting that they're not a shoe-in for the first 11. If he hadn't been out injured recently, Tariq Uwakwe would have started the game because of the form he has been in over the past couple of months but then Marc Guehi has also been in great form that I didn't want to leave him out. 'George McEachran was also unlucky because he was outstanding against Spurs at the weekend. It's a difficult one and the way people are performing at the minute, if you were to ask me to pick my team for the next game, I'm not sure I could tell you.' A trip to Middlesbrough or Leicester City awaits the holders, with the two sides going head-to-head at the Riverside tomorrow. It will be the first time in this campaign that the Blues have faced a fellow Category 1 academy side and Morris knows that will represent the toughest test of the run so far for his youngsters. 'I remember when we played Middlesbrough in the league a couple of years ago, they beat us up all over the pitch. We lost 3-0 and I think that was the last time we lost at home. We've also had some great battles with Leicester, especially away from home. We'll be focused and prepared but at the same time we will recognise, like we did for Sheffield Wednesday, that it's another step up in quality, whoever we face.' Before then, our youngsters can guarantee their place in the elite play-off round in the Under-18 Premier League and take a step closer to winning the south section this weekend. They travel to Reading on Saturday morning for an 11am kick-off, where a win could take them eight points clear with just three games remaining.
