League Cup 2019/20 | Semi finals: Man Utd v Man City, Leicester City v Aston Villa

[SilentWitness]

PL clubs enter the competition tonight and tomorrow.

Lots of Everton fans want us to take this very seriously this year and try to win it aka play a full strength side. I agree to an extent but the midfield injuries mean I'd like Gomes/Schneiderlin to be rested tomorrow.

Newcastle - Leicester tomorrow should be a good game.

Fulham - Southampton is probably the pick of ties tonight.

 

[MsNuno]

Some good ties there although it's a shame most clubs don't take it see any more.

 

[SilentWitness]

Norwich losing. Villa winning.

 

[freeurmind]

Newport should be ahead.

 

[RedPed]

Newport should be ahead.

They're gonna do another Newport. You can just see it coming.

 

[freeurmind]

Jack Wilshire lives.

 

[Nickosaur]

Brighton 1-0 up, Aaron Connolly with the goal. Hes on fire for the u23s.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

Colchester knock out Crystal Palace on penalties- (Palace had made 10 changes)
Norwich lose 1-0 to Crawley

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Palace lose.

Good, that'll learn em.

 

[Cheech Wizard]

Andros Townsend calls out his own club for mocking another clubs player and then mocks his own club by dumping them out to Colchester at home.

 

[SilentWitness]

Villa with a big away win, Stoke win on pens against Leeds to give them a bit of confidence, Southampton scrape by Fulham...

Palace played a decent side tonight.

 

[Irrational.]

Feck off Palace.

You're up against a League One team and you're playing a full strength team. Good luck against Bournemouth on Sunday!

(I'm probably being biased due to my annoyance of Marco Silva fyi).

The penalty he scored to send them through was class though

A lot of Everton fans want us to take this competition seriously and win a trophy. Kean and Iwobi need fitness so makes sense with them, Richarlison too needs more minutes - Delph is back from injury and Holgate comes in.

The only changes I'd make would be Gibson for Keane and Baines for Digne. Potentially Tosun for Gylfi but yeah.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Well that's a good start for Everton. 1-0 Lincoln City.

 

[RedSky]

1-0 Lincoln after 20 seconds.

 

[dbs235]

Wow Everton

 

[dwd]

Good start

 

[SilentWitness]

Not that I’m salty or anything but VAR, if you’re going to have it in one competition then have it in all of them ffs.

 

[RedPed]

Ball No 30 in the next round please. The footballing gods need to cut us a break.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Brilliant goal from Digne. 1-1. What a freekick.

 

[One Night Only]

Ah, I'm too used to watching rashford blast them anywhere but near the goal that surprised me. Forgot that was the aim of a free kick.

Lovely free kick, keeper had no chance.

Great technique.

 

[Mighty Boosh]

Beautiful strike of the ball from Digne

 

[One Night Only]

Richarlison can be a right selfish twat.

 

[MsNuno]

Swansea flying this season 5-0 already.

 

[Sandikan]

Reading away would be a nice local one for me please.

Failing that, the crappest team left away.

 

[Sandikan]

Palace lose.

Good, that'll learn em.

Just another dagger to us, as Palace suck absolute donkey balls, and we lost to them.
So upsetting.

 

[MsNuno]

Sunderland beating Burnley

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Muto equalised for Newcastle against Leicester.
Everton now get a penalty.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Gylfi scores. 1-2.

 

[One Night Only]

Don't understand what sigurdson got booked for there

 

[charlenefan]

[RedPed]

How the hell are Bournemouth not beating Forest Green??
