EFL Cup 2016-2017 (League Cup)

[SALTIRE]

Making hard work of this. Nothing between the sides so far, in fact, Leeds have probably edged it.

 

[JimJams]

Until that passback...

 

[Gilly?]

Leeds have given a good account of themselves here.

 

[SALTIRE]

They do and were unlucky with that belting curler. Liverpool look indecisive and bereft of ideas with Ejaria the only one looking sharp.

 

[KevinMcallister]

That was our semi final chance gone

 

[Jamie_SFC]

You just know a Liverpool sucker punch is around the corner.

 

[KevinMcallister]

Where's this easy game G-Dragon?

 

[KevinMcallister]

Origami folds our defence

 

[G-Dragon]

CAN YOU SMELALALALALALAL WHAT DIVOCK IS COOKING?

 

[G-Dragon]

WOOOOOODBURNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

 

[KevinMcallister]

Gutted but we've been decent if only is the word I use for that shot that hit post

 

[G-Dragon]

Win never in doubt. Who is next?

 

[SALTIRE]

Woodburn is fearless, what a player he is going to be.

Worst Liverpool have played all season, but through, phew!!

[SALTIRE]

1 - 1 in ET with Hull and Newcastle still. Pens to decide?

 

[Magic]

Very proud of our club tonight. Fans awesome and the players gave everything. If Roofe's shot sneaked in or Sacko wasn't Sacko in front of goal we might have even nicked it despite missing a few key players (and then another couple during the match).

Nothing to fear in the Championship this year.

 

[SALTIRE]

Hull through on pens. Newcastle very poor on them.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Enjoyed the Liverpool V Leeds game felt like a proper cup tie, both teams giving it a go and I think Leeds should feel proud of their performance tonight it took a lot for Liverpool to win that game. Quite surprised to see Hull go through despite being the Premier League side, looking at the match stats it looks like they've proper shithoused it though. Into a cup semi though so fair play.

 

[Benji]

I got home late and the BBC website said Newcastle won on penalties, so for over an hour I was feeling pretty pleased only to find out the truth just now.

 

[G-Dragon]

Hopefully we get Hull in the semis. More games to rest our important players. Although we should be able to beat anyone at home.

What a game by TAA. Crosses the ball much better than Clyne.

[Jamie_SFC]

Surprise, surprise. A weakened Saints side.

 

[HarvSFC]

It's not as weak as I suspected though. Forster's starting in goal instead of Alex McCarthy for the first time in the competition for one. Other than McQueen and Reed this side would have probably lined up multiple times in the Premier League last season (with the addition of Boufal) and done a job.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have a guy called Martinez in goal, Rob Holding in defence against Long, some guy called Rene-Adelaide and recently fit Lucas Perez. (Seen their bench too? Not one to fear).

Time for the squad to prove itself without Austin.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Manchester United taking it seriously then, good to see.

 

[Stevencc]

Lovely pass from Rooney, smart run and assist from Mkhitaryan, good finish from Zlatan.

Strong start.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

Jesus Christ, we've been clinical for a change!

 

[JimJams]

How's Boufal doing? Saw he got the assist for Bert.

 

[Pagnell]

De Gea.

 

[Stevencc]

Gift from De Gea, very much against the flow of the game. 1-1.

 

[claret50]

Nice one.
