So do I. I find it difficult to see how it can fit into the truncated calendar.I hope that we will defend our Carabao Cup this year.

Surely even with this trimmed season there will be sufficient free midweeks to fit a small number of league cup games in?So do I. I find it difficult to see how it can fit into the truncated calendar.

And of course after the CL the FA cup starts, could they start both tournaments scrapping replays? Doesn’t seem likely.Look like 2 free gaps in November are an international break, and with everything starting late, not likely before late Sept in lower leagues, there is no chance of getting in 4 rounds before the CL, with the 10th Oct also being an international weekend.
Even without internationals it is near impossible, unless they play the following round in subsequent weeks or start the comp as a preseason thing like used to happen to an extent in Scotland.
It still happens in Scotland, or rather would have but for COVID-19.Look like 2 free gaps in November are an international break, and with everything starting late, not likely before late Sept in lower leagues, there is no chance of getting in 4 rounds before the CL, with the 10th Oct also being an international weekend.

I am sure I read somewhere that teams in Europe will not be in the Carabao cup next season, may have been on here as remember some comments like it’s the only way they can take the cup off us :)-I hope that we will defend our Carabao Cup this year.
That would only apply if City finished outside of the top-four and won the CL. That was the case with Chelsea a few years back.If we do win the Champions League this season, Does the 5th spot in the Premier League get you into the Champions League, Or is that scrapped?
