Competition League Cup 2018/19

[Totti]

Haven't beaten Woolwich at the Emirates since Kaboul put one in the back of the net against them - I got a feeling that'll change this season.

 

[HyNdZee]

West Ham away, Woolwich away, no doubt the semi will be Chelsea away...

 

[slickz]

We’ll smash em at the Emirates, shit defence, we will def get goals.

 

[5purs]

semi's at wembeley i think... so yeah, away lol

 

[spursmalc]

So Watford, Spammers, Woolwich and no doubt Mc or Chelski awaiting the winner in the semi and the other in the final. No one could say that it is an easy cup to win.

 

[WillWilliams]

well that's got to get us taking it seriously.

Yeah just like in 2010.

Never walked away from an NLD as disgusted as I was that night.

Redknapp better not come out in the media with any bollocks about Pochettino having to play his strongest team due to the opposition.

 

[slickz]

Surely Poch has to go all out to win this. League and CL obviously ain’t happening.

 

[Aleksic]

Aren't the semi's two legged affairs, or has that been changed?

Just looked at the fixture list and it better not change.

Woolwich due to play Southampton on the 16th. We at home to Burnley on the 15th.

They will not play their first team. It's what we do that matters but they may face what we just had to endure.

We’ve got to focus on top four, this cup and we genuinely need to do what we can in the Europa League due to the Champions League slot it comes with. Ultimately the club needs cash and as with any walk of life, you focus on what you need or what will get you the most ROI.

We do however need to see it as a one off game, quarter final and go for it against that lot. Can’t be going into a NLD ever with one eye on something else in my opinion. Let’s hope we steer clear of injuries or a bit of a lull in form for most

Pretty sure they still are.

 

[Leviathan]

That’s a brutal draw, but at least it should be entertaining.

Didn’t West ham also draw Woolwich after they beat us at this stage last year?

And Pochettino better not allow thr fixture to be changed.

 

[TottenhamAberdeen]

Wednesday 19th it's got to be, and we'll get 6,000 tickets.
I won't be attending, fuck that place.
Poch best put out the strongest available line-up, killed me last time but made up for it against city next game.

 

[Radical Rei]

Murder them

Away games combined all more local than our home game!

 

[hiatus]

Anyone who thinks drawing Woolwich away is a good draw is fcuking stupid.

It is amazing how we can never avoid the big guns.

We had good draws last year in the FA Cup, basically walked into the semifinal. It tends to even out.

And honestly, I don’t think anyone wants any more “home” matches at Wembley.

 

[RealCoolYid]

I imagine both would be happy with that - one of them is going to get to a semi final of a cup and almost guaranteed a glamour tie away at Spurs/Woolwich/Chelsea/City.

Burton are likely to go out

They would've hoped to have gone out with some fanfare against a big club

Boro... sure delighted no doubt

Some of the runs goons had to those fa cup victories were unbelievable

Including the finals themselves

 

[MVP]

You know what's going to happen? Poch is going to put out a weaken side and another chance to win a trophy is going to be gone. That is thing that annoys me about Poch the most, getting to the CL is good but it's not a trophy.
