There’s at least ten of the 15 where we would be strong favourites. Fingers crossed for one of these, preferably at home. By the time of the QFs we might be in better shape squad though perhaps not in terms of fixture congestion. If we get through the fifth round, and the CL play offs, we could have two QF games within a few days of one another.

If I could be arsed I'd love to list the teams we've drawn across cup competitions since Howe arrived. (Yes...this is a hint for someone equally intrigued to do the same on my behalf.)

 

We must be due a 'perceived' easier tie.
