Carabao Cup 2nd Round | 26/27 Aug '25

[KS55]

Nobody is surprised by the superiority of Grimsby. They acquired Pannick this week.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

I presume ITV and Sky did the starting 11 price comparison?

 

[Longdarnit Blue]

Cunha and Sesko showing their class so far. Quite brilliantly anonymous against a league 2 team. It’s a mystery why the commentators haven’t yet mentioned their cost v the Grimsby team. Amoron will show his tactical genius and will unleash the mighty slabhead as super striker to rescue the game 2nd half no doubt. Manchesnihted are just a few miles from turning that corner yet though.

Regardless whatever happens the excuses will come out if they lose along with the transition rubbish and new players,if they win fantastic comeback shows the mentality and brilliant from Amorin to change and adapt..

 

[Sky Blue]

Was going to watch something on Netflix but having a whale of a time watching this.

 

[Vienna_70]

It’s not exactly a weak rags team, is it?

Plenty of first-teamers in that starting XI.

 

[I'm Blue]

So far so good.
Need a few more though.

 

[paulchapo]

Important they didn't concede before halftime. It gives Grimsby a rest and time to regroup.

 

[Blu1]

Why is he not playing his full team ? Makes no sense. This cup should be utds priority.

Come on Grimsby

 

[tommybooth]

Onana is a master at jumping up in the air to avoid having to save the ball.

Kangaroo

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Well I defo didn't think the first half would be anywhere near as funny as that

 

[WestGorton]

That Portuguese manager is no man o war

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Just laid Grimsby at 2.1. Not even the rags are shit enough not to get a draw here

 

[citytill1die84]

Even if they do come back this is absolutely fucking hilarious upwards of 350m that rags 11 cost bwahahaha

 

[BerkshireBlue]

There's only two first teamers missing

I think the closest was the ITV guy saying that new striker for the rags price was the equivalent of 13 years turnover for Grimsby so kind of but nothing like we'd get.

So apparently Arteta wanted Sesko so much. Andrea Berta came in as Sporting Director with a remit of building the squad and was adamant Gyokeres was a much better buy. Apparently Arteta was fuming.

On the evidence thus far Arteta can't be allowed anywhere near transfers.

Won’t be long before the bloaters come on …
