Carabao Cup & FA Cup Thread

Prefer 3 points in the league over a win the cup. Play the youth, you can guarantee Fergie won't play thier first team for this one.

Want to see us win this cup since we haven't won it for a long long time but yeah, it's definitely more crucial to win the league game. And agree with the Fergie part. United have to play Arsenal just days after this league cup meeting. Likely to rest some senior players.

And against Man.Utd :D

Same apllies to Man United, though it is tougher for them as they play away from home. They could stay in some London hotel perhaps?

Rather than having to open a new thread for every round every time, have merged the two League Cup threads this season and pinned it. So, if you have any news, thoughts, analysis on the draw etc, just discuss it here from now on. Cheers.

You mean the one in 1999? They pulled out of the FA Cup that year to play in the Club World Cup.

yes but they were offered a Bye into the 4th round

[HRiver 1,512]

I think I prefer this to the FA Cup for this season. It's been five years that we haven't won this, while we've won the FA Cup four times.

[Jase 43,479]

Offered a bye? Mate, they pulled out of the competition altogether. They were never in it to begin with.

This is basically our cup now so i don't care who we get along the way. Would like an away game at some small shitty team though like Scarborough '03.

[manco 38]

As long as Scholes isn't playing we're fine
