What did Tommy say, post match?

He shoved the trophy in the managers hands and stated he's 'a top man' or words to that effect.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

They put it straight onto our City page on BBC Sport, nothing at all on the general football page but when Dippers stole it with a useless lino and ref last year it made the general football page though report was as short as ours

Blatant handball in the dying minutes of the game by the Dipper left back went unpunished.

 

[Didsbury Dave]

I'd never really seen Joe Hodge until Friday, and immediately thought he'd be a weak link just because of his size, after watching him play twice now, I think he's a great little prospect, such a worker, and clever, seems to read the game well and is always in the right position. He doesn't have a glamorous role, but he makes it look effortless.

From the 2 games, for all the flair we have on show, he impressed me the most.

I said the same. He spread the ball brilliantly from the back of the midfield. Hodge, Braaf and Palmer stood out for me.

I like Doyle, McAtee, Rogers and Braff, there's so many of them!

And both CBs & Dionku, not forgetting Delap. We're going to have to sack off half of the 1st team squad to fit them all in. The transfer windows are going to make interesting viewing over the next few seasons.

What did Tommy say, post match?

Massive. About 6 times.

A really enjoyable game with quality on both sides.

In the recent past City have generally had smaller and younger players in this competition that have ben outmuscled by the likes of Chelsea, who have typically bigber, older players. This side has a good balance who held their own physically and outplayed Chelsea.

They offer more options in more positions than sides before, which bodes well.

The physicality was a noticeable and pivotal factor,that wasnt a team that could be bullied.

Our 2 central defenders set the tone along with Dionkou in terms of physicality.They all gave everything,putting their bodies on the line when needed but still showed they were equally at home with the ball at their feet.
Add to it the skilful battering ram up front,Delap, this gave Chelsea plenty to cope with and perhaps made it a little easier for our more skilled players to thrive.
A thorough team performance and a joy and privilege to watch
