    So, Derby knock out Chelsea and then face us in the semi. I fancy Newcastle to beat Spuds and lose to Liverpool in the semi.

    Lo, it is written...

    Interesting. Shame it's not at home but you can't have everything I suppose. All the big boys kept apart. You'd expect a last 4 of Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool and Saints from those but anything can happen.

    Frazer, Dusan and Victor's missed it. Must be in the shower. Steven Davis on R5 now.

    Decent draw for us. Away but Sheff Utd are the lowest ranked team left.

    That would also suffice. I really get the feeling this side will do something special for us. COYR! :)

    RK says the League Cup may not be the most important trophy, but it may be the best cup for us. At last, a manager who realises this.

    It's because when he has been called upon, he's looked shaky. Not a surprise there's questions. I don't feel confident with him under crosses (which for his size is surprising), and I'm not convinced at his agility (or kicking). The defensive record is because we're having very, very few shots and chances created against us, not because he's saving a load.

    But then, he's young, he's in a new team and he's learning. I'm quite sure he'll improve in time, but right now. Shaky.

    Southampton fan on R5 doing a good job of defending his view. Says the narrative of the media that starts every post match report that Saints would struggle is getting really tiresome amongst Saints fans. And he's right too. we are pissed off with hearing it.

    Chappers and Mills descended upon him, but he kept his cool and his view. Well done that lad.

    A grip of what CBK? I think Forster doesn't look all that confident? It's an opinion, not a life-threatening condition, or sign of mental illness.

    If you think he looks steady as a rock, that's your opinion.

    Do you understand how this works yet?
