Glad Vardy is playing. It's the correct choice. I wouldn't have Faes or Barnes anywhere near that team however.

 

[parafox]

Much stronger team than I imagined. I hope we ****ing thrash them.

What a ****ing ludicrous purchase Vestergaard was. He'll be sat in the stands taking a wage until his contract ends in 2024.

Based on this season, our club captain coming in for Amartey is a downgrade. Well done Dan!

Easy win

And good luck to him. That’s the clubs fault, not his.

Of course. Any one of us would happily do the same in a heartbeat.

Agree it seems to be crazy to be playing Faes with Vestergaard on the bench. Nacho must be gutted, he doesn’t usually miss these. Hope we get ahead early and give Baybrooke a game.

Sorry for my ignorance but are five subs allowed for the league cup?

2023, surely?

 

[homer]

Poor Nacho He must be in absolute despair at how he is being treated

Bit bonkers to risk Faes, IMO, but there you go

 

[parafox]

2023, surely?

Might be right - I checked the lcfc.com article from when we signed him and it said 2024 though.

Yes.

Would be criminal not to give Braybrooke some time then.

Why didn't Vardy shoot then?

Oh dear Dennis...

The only game they are televising in this whole round is Man Shitty v Chelsea tomorrow night

They're televising two matches this round, as usual.

But as both ties they wanted to televise involve teams that played on Sunday, they couldn't play one of them today. So it's on Thursday instead - Man U v Villa.

Ah, good spot

No stream so been following the excellent BBC updates. Clinton Morrison says Wout Faes really reminds him of David Luis. Something about the way he runs.

Lovely goal
