Its two extra games (maybe 3) for them, more chances for players to get injured or tired, another distraction. All good news. And if Leicester make it to the Semi's, they'll go for it, the chance for BR to win a trophy. With a squad smaller than ours it could mean they end up sacrificing something (how many games can Vardy play in a week?)
Oxford!! 1-1 Just to say, Yes Citeh have weakened themselves, but still have Sterling, Rhodri, Mahrez, B Silva, Bravo, and Foden playing
Leicester and Citeh both through, two extra games for them and being so close to a final its a competition both will feel they can win. An extra distraction for both since they could both realistically get the cup.
I am not happy we are out - I would have loved the young lads to have taken us through but I am not losing sleep we are not there A cup is a cup to me Ininttowinit
Think we are now the only ones left tbh Scotland do if we are counting them as separate But fairly certain the other so called top leagues are down to one
Pep Guardiola's future as Manchester City manager depends on whether he receives backing in the Champions League. (The Athletic, via Mirror) Saw this on BBC Salford Trying to figure out if it means they need to back him by paying the refs in Europe off now too
Also wtaf are the west ham fans up in arms for claiming double standards about todays postponed game for. Every other time an english club has gone to this comp mid season league games have been postponed It is literally one of the few times they have been consistent. In fact if memory serves correct it was this competition that was at the root of utd being allowed to pull out of the FA cup years ago. Apart from the screamingly obvious point that most managers keep saying they cannot cope with the demands of the dec schedule Both west ham and liverpool are out of LC so game can now sit on semi final night Just what is their beef ffs
How much are they having to pay his son ? Am i the only one who immediately assumed that the son is "employed" by his dad as no one else will have him .
