v Newcastle - Up the young guns

Chelsea to start their Carling Cup campaign this season against premierleague side Newcastle United at the Bridge tonight. Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti confirm that a few of the the club young player will be involve in the third round game with Daniel Sturridge, Patrick Van Aanholt, Gael Kakuta and Jeffry Bruma all tip to start.

Looking forward to the game to see how much the young players have developed. Younger players at the club havent had that much of a chance to show their abbility under previous managers and i'm glad CA will give them chances.

Daniel Sturiddge played in all of the clubs pre season friendly and perform well. He also came in as a sub for the Charity Shield and the last Champs League game for Chelsea. Considering his good form in last season carling and fa cup campaign, i expect Sturiddge to play a vital role tonight and hopefully for the whole of the Carling Cup competition.

Gael Kakuta, the young frenchman who perform well during the summer at the 2010 U-19 Euro Cup has already played in a couple of Chelsea previous game this season coming on as a sub. Expecting lots from Kakuta, with all the fuss and controversial surrounding his transfer from Lens, hopefully the boy talents and promise is justified.

Jeffry Bruma coming on as a sub during Chelsea last game against Blackpool reminds me of John Terry 10 years back. Yup, a young JT coming on as a sub to play alongside the likes of Marcel Desailly and Frank Leboeuf, he didnt waste his opportunity to learn and gain valuable experiance from both of the legends. With his hardwork and determination, he became John Terry that we all know today. Hope Bruma can follow his captain foot steps and became a Chelsea star in the future.

Prediction: Narrow win for the young blues, Sturridge to score KTBFFH
