Jose always takes the league cup very seriously and has a knack of winning it too. 6000 allocation... should be a cracker... bring it on I say!
Looking forward to Boufal and Tadic starting together! (and maybe we could give Defoe a couple of glory years when Sunderland get relegated next year)
Boufal, Tadic and Redmond behind Austin is kinda nice. I mean defensively hopeless, but that's what Oriol is there for!
Does anyone know if Boufal is okay? Was holding his knee and signalling to come off not long after the goal. Though Clasie did come on after that so hopefully ran it off.
Don't think there was any problem there. Clasie was originally going to come on for Sophie Anne, but then Harrison got cramp so they swapped it, so there can't have been any real concern.
Presume we will be on the Wednesday, sandwiched between Everton (h) and C Palace (a) For Arsenal it comes after Bournemouth (h) and before WHam (a)
That was my thinking that during that break in play if it was that bad surely he would have come off. He did 100% shout/signal to the bench multiple times though.
Boufal has got to teach Redmond how to score goals like that. Redmond gets in that sort of position so often and then doesn't produce
At the end of the day, if we want to win the trophy we have to be able to beat whichever team the draw throws up. Let's do them now and then the semi and final will be easier
