Carabao Cup R4 Draw | Spurs (A) | Wed 30 Oct 20:15

[.db.]

Shite. Away to PL side again, what a surprise.

I guess Pep will play the reserves and kids and Spurs will treat it like their cup final.

With the expanded CL, we are going play the kids ongoing forevermore in this competition. Doesn’t matter if we get Liverpool away or Morecambe at home, this is the EDS plus those who need minutes competition now.

want Arse to get to semis and really tire out in two legged vs dippers

I stand to be corrected but haven’t they changed it this season so the semis are just one leg?

At least it's a team that won't put 11 men behind the ball

How many Big Cup ties do we keep getting. When was the last time we got an easy route to a final, I see the scum got another home draw.

Tough draw. You'd imagine Spurs should be going all out to win this, it's there for the taking if they take it seriously. Glad it's away, can skip it and not be bothered about going out. Send the kids, give the first team the night off entirely and whatever happens happens.

Hope Preston get stuck right into arsenal and go out fighting dirty.

 

[meeesh]

I’d rather go out to spurs than one of the red cartel

Just

And yet our last tie was at home to a non PL side?

More often than not though we get drawn away.

When did the rags last have a PL away tie in one of the early cup rounds?

 

[blueste41]

It's still 2 legs.

Semi-Final: 8 January (first leg) & 5 February (second leg)

Not really arsed this season, tbh. Pep made it clear yesterday that we wouldn’t be going for it, so better to go out early in that case. Will be a good learning experience for the kids, but hard to see us winning there unless Spurs play their kids too.

Brighton v Liverpool good as we play Brighton the following Saturday

Just need that guy who bit the Blackburn fullback on Sunday to play and have a nibble again

 

[paulchapo]

Nice easy tie then.....ha!

 

[skillman]

Haha. What a draw.

Second string team as Pep said last night, be good for the kids to get minutes in a game like that.

I’d hazard a guess that there suddenly might be a few more senior players in, though…

 

[HateUefaLoveCity]

Spurs, Bournemouth, Lisbon and Brighton away all in the space of 2 weeks. It's going to get very expensive...

 

[city68]

We will still beat em...

 

[BigJoe#1]

Spuds v City
Barcodes v Chelski
Brighton v Arse

what price United at home to Leicester get on telly.... I mean they do need the cash dont they?

 

[johnnytapia]

Some absolutely wank comments on here. Defeatist bollocks. Pep, as always, as he did last night, will go strong. Very strong.
Thank fuck he has the big bollocks that’s seen us win endless cups.

Spurs would be mad too.

Knowing we'll go weaker it's a great chance for them. I still think we'll go strong enough to give us a chance, Pep won't hang the kids out to dry like Pellegrini did at Chelsea.

 

[MadchesterCity]

Wow play the kids

 

[East Level 2]

Only Anfield and arseholes away would have been worse.
Another chance for the kids to shine in Spurs' Cup Final. They'll be playing their first 11.

Playing their first team in a first team competition!! Whatever next?
