Chelsea beat Bromley 3-0 today in a behind closed doors friendly. Joao Pedro, Gittens and Emegha scored. Emenalo started and further youth like Walsh, Watson and Nichol-Jazuli came on.
That is now back to back goals for Gittens and Emegha in our 2 friendlies, and word has it that Alonso is very impressed with them both and in particular, Gittens.
Nothing to get overly excited about but I thought I would share with you all.

What league are Bromley in, Rpd?

Ok, just checked, and Bromley are League 1.

Got promoted from League 2, which they won.

From reading reports about the game, it sounds like we had a lot of under 18s playing at various times. I think the plan is to take 7 youngsters on our pre season tour.

Any idea what formation we played in the 2 games? Not to say that’ll be the formation going forward, but it would be interesting to know.
