If this game goes ahead its a disgrace. I demand a bye. At least villa will play a decent side in the 4th round
Wouldn't bet on the kids playing unless Villa can guarantee that the first team squad and the group they are picking from have no contact i.e none of the "kids" have been training at Bodymoor .
It will be 8-2 as we are playing kids as well. It will not be a game of football it will be a creche.
why are we supposedly just using u23 u18 players after all people like Minamino ,N Williams , R Williams, AOC & Phillips could do with game time .
I was talking about Villa using kids. We will use a combination of kids and backup players. I think all those you mentioned bar maybe Ox wil play
its being reported on Sky just u23 & 18 players mind you if this is being based on anything klopp said it is probably total bollocks .
Well this is a quandary. I buy the horses lucky carrots to feed them when I walk the dog before a game. Didn't get an opportunity on Monday, because I'd just done a 12 hour shift and there was panic-buying in Tesco's when I got there at 6pm: and the results were tangible - you can't argue with science. I have carrots for my walk later, but am I wasting them using them today? Or, come to think of it, have I just wasted my life when it's come to asking total strangers on an internet forum whether I should feed horses lucky carrots?
I've given up on being angry with Herr Klopp's total distain for domestic cups. Not worth my while. I believe the only time klopp went for the german cup later in his dortmund career was in his last season when he had a bit of a disaster of a league campaign.
I too was dismayed that we gave up on the domestic cups a few years back, but I've accepted that that's the way it is now.
read what i wrote. in 2012 they exited the CL in the group phase so had nothing else to play for. he finished up in 2015 and reached the german cup final, they were miles off inthe league and went out of the cl early. hence the LATER comment. in his first 4 season he made zero impact on the cup. In the 3 really competitive seasons they did well enough in the cup but they rarely got near the later stages of CL. You'll note the year the were runners up in the CL they went out in last 8 of the cup. So you'll note "the only time klopp went for the german cup later in his dortmund career was in his last season" holds quite true. apology accepted. It'd be a terrible thing to have Jürgen win the FA cup as it means we've had a disaster in the CL and League. The issue is the FA cup starts and we are out before the last 16 round of CL so klopp's never played teams strong enough to get to the later rounds here. Not really. Wo its no worth my time getting angry about any more. In the past I've said i really wanted a cup run. Its never even been attempted.
