Vaj Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 They are taking it very seriously, pretty much full strength tonight. This will be much harder than tonight but hopefully we go full strength with Luton at home after it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) So in cup competitions we've faced 5 Champions League winners and the other was a Champions League finalist. Edited November 1, 2023 by Sima Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're in uncharted territory for siege mentality being created off the back of this adversity, might have us playing Schar up front come January.

Really wouldn't have fancied everton away tbh. They're starting to pick up abit and the fans seem back onside with the players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) In a single cup competition to draw consecutively Man City (h) Man Utd (a) Chelsea (a) Is pretty suss like.

et tu brute Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I'm not being bitter either, but she was definitely looking at the bowl for the first two she picked out, no surprise Everton her former team were the first one she picked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Just a gentle reminder that we fielded a side that consisted of fringe players and players freshly coming back from injury tonight with the exclusion of maybe 4 or 5 players. We won 3 0 away at Old Trafford. If we perform we win. Such is Eddie Howes class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I'd rather think of it as us taking out potential winners earlier and leaving us an easier fixture in the final. For example I'd rather face Liverpool over two legs in the semi of we get past Chelsea, than a one off game in the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Aye, if we both get through I want Liverpool in the semis. I think I'd spew myself to death if they beat us in a final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 We were great tonight, an example of unity and exceptional coaching, but fucking hell Man Utd really were horrific - utterly broken; I probably wouldn't make too many conclusions about our prospects in the next round based on tonight. Chelsea away is a fucking turd of a fixture. It's a really annoying draw, and a really fucking annoying journey right before we need to travel to Luton as well. Hopefully we've earned a bit of respite going into the FA Cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFC_Chris Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Not too happy with the draws, it’s pretty suspect in my opinion. I certainly don’t fear em but a home draw would’ve been nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
