Anybody staying up or waking up for the League Cup draw?

It's at 4:15am UK time tomorrow.

I was there following on twitter. And an absolute joke it was too. Twitter took at least a minute to update the draw with each new tie, and several minutes between some.. Just as well I didn't actually wake up for it.

Meanwhile a little sympathy for Arsenal please. They've picked up what counts as a tough draw for them; a mid table, League One team. At home of course.

WTF is the Carabao Cup?!

Just call it the "shitty worthless cheapening football advertisement trophy" and be done with it!

All you need to know about this cup - (Milk Cup?, Coca-Cola Cup?  )

Anyway, as any other competition, once we are in it, I want to win it.

Honestly, if we don't get league one opponents at least until the semis we should cancel the deal...

Should happen any minute live on Sky Sports.

Agree it is going to be Arsenal v Bristol and Chelsea v City.

Chelsea v Arsenal - They beat us in the FA Cup and Community Shield. We better get the better of them here!

5 matches against Arsenal since Conte came to Chelsea (EPL, FA Cup, CS) - just 1 win (!) and 3 defeats. That is not acceptable and it must be changed.
