EFL cup Q/F - Villa (Away)

[Frogfish]

Can't believe we're not more excited about being one game from a semi final

I know right ! And we didn't even have to play ... we got a bye straight to it.

 

[Milk and Kebabs]

I'm really looking forward to the game today ... I would be amazed if we win but I can't wait to see how the kids take up the challenge, and if they're good enough to play a decent PL side.

Can't lose tonight.

If we win... Hey its a semi final.
If we lose... Still great experience for the kids and its the smallest cup we're fighting for.

No one wants to lose anything... But three less games across a congested winter period might be welcomed and give us a bit of a break.

I wonder how much Pedro Chirivella is on. He's going to be 23 in the summer and is still milling around in our reserves.

If we lose it will show that we don't have enough good young players to play a QF without most of the first team, which doesn't seem much of a surprise, but isn't exactly anything like winning. Because it's still losing.

I had high hopes for him once.

Let's hope it's his hour to shine

One game away from two semifinals. Double the fun!!

 

[Milk and Kebabs]

One game away from two semifinals. Double the fun!!

Maybe our U16s can play if we get an easy draw, like United.

Defo some weirdness going on with that deal

 

[Milk and Kebabs]

Defo some weirdness going on with that deal

Reminds me of Nabil El Zhar, he hung around in our reserves long after it was obvious he was never going to make the step up.

[manwithnoname]

We are going to get bummed

 

[Shadey]

Hope we get Colchester in the semis.

 

[doctor_mac]

These kids will be scarred tonight.

OMG !!! Klopp should have left Shaq behind, has he not won one with Bayern ? Thats just too young.

 

[Milk and Kebabs]

Imagine being 16 and playing in a League Cup QF.

Expecting something like this:

 

[SummerOnions]

Who are any of these youts then?

 

[King Binny]

 

[SummerOnions]

I've heard of like 5

 

[rurikbird]

I've heard maybe 4 of these names before. Are they also mostly playing youngsters?

McGinn and Grealish are on the bench as insurance though.

 

[Modo]

Oh this will not end well. Villa are looking to destroy us.

 

[Hansern]

No, not many youngsters there but reserve players and some who played last season in the Championship.

Nyland is Norways reserve international GK, not that good it has to be said..

 

[Mamma Mia]

Harvey is going to rip Villa a new one all on his own

 

[rurikbird]

If we somehow win this, this will be forever known as "Miracle on grass."

Yeah, he's one of the 4 players I know.

It’d be hilarious if we win but realistically would just be nice to keep things respectable.
