It's on the Tuesday now? Ffs...


Oh, hold on. This is the League Cup isn't it? Let's get to Wembley...

Team selection will be interesting, presumably Pierre will play but I wonder how many changes he'll make?

I seem to remember him not taking cups seriously before which will annoy me :(

Looking forward to this though, evening cup tie and localish. Looks like we've sold around 2000 so should be a good atmosphere too.

Will be weird watching a game live with VAR. Am I right in thinking there's no et too?
 
Straight to penalties if level at FT (in addition to VAR being used), if anyone is unaware.

Stephens Bednarek Yoshida Targett

Can see us putting out a lot of the fringe players for this one.

Valery, Bednarek, Stephens, Targett
JWP, Davis, Reed, Hesketh
Gabbiadini, Gallagher

As always with the league cup hard to predict prior to the team announcements as you don't know how seriously teams will take it in the early rounds. Can see both us and Brighton making lots of changes from our games at the weekend
