EFL Cup Final | Tottenham | Sun 25 Apr 4:30pm

IMO this is a game too far for us in terms of team selection.
We have to go as strong as possible in the league and the CL.
That inevitably means a much weakened side in next Sunday's game especially as it's only three days away from the PSG gig.
Also it's very much the least ranked trophy and we've won it so many times in the last years.

last night was a " game too far " too,by your reckoning

Why bother getting to the final then?

Was looking forward to smashing these cnuts and payback for 81 but i'm now shitting it due to having no idea what side Pep will put out

We might as well bin off the domestic cups in the first round we play, no point playing all these extra games and then play weakened sides in semi's and finals

Why bother getting to the final then?

Because we thought it would be played in February as usual? Because we might not have been in the champions league semi final? Because we might not have been in a title race?

With hindsight all this is known today but not 3 months ago.

Apparently Spurs may know today about the severity of kanes injury

I suppose it'll balance out Kev missing.

For me never, love the cups.

A lot of things "might" happen.

I love them too mate but really don't see the point in fighting to win earlier rounds and then seeing that yesterday & maybe the same against Spurs.
As it is, i think we'll beat Spurs

Me too
but he will do whatever he wants,
he has ready made excuses with the psg game days later
all of this was on the cards from the start of the season,going balls deep in all comps

maybe the slackers that put that "shift " in last night will be in the team next sunday
and they will actually try,we might smash tott or be another damp limp performance
who knows?
