Burton (h) pre-match thread

If it didn’t what would differentiate it from the fa cup ? ( apart from no non league potential opponents)....therefore making it a redundant trophy.

When your as old as me - Denis Tueart special moment still burns strong in the memory

As did beating the scum in a previous 2 legged semi

Hoping for more youngsters apart from Foden and Muric. When if not against a League One team. At least on the bench some kids, and they all can come in if we are 3-0 up.

Maybe Eric Garcia again? That would be nice.

It’s the champions league that has created potential fixture pile up - not the domestic game.


Blame that - that should have remained a straight KO comp for the champions of leagues only.....but money talked

Money talked and we got the opportunity of having our top 4 teams compete against the best of Europe in a competition ten times more interesting than the League Cup or whatever it is called this year.

Just watched Pep's press conference for the game, he didn't get asked one question about the game, football journalists are knobs.

I've looked at the Burton side, I've had a good think about what side Pep might put out, we've got a home game first, and I've come to the firm conclusion - WTF could possibly go wrong tomorrow!

Underestimating them

This has probably been said but no away goals rule in League Cup semis and no extra time either (for the 2nd leg). Straight to pens if level on aggregate after 2nd leg 90 mins
