Capital One Cup Season 2014-15

Post by Big Boy »

The Green Army kick off their Capital One Cup season tonight. As usual, I'm hoping they come a close second, without picking up cards or injuries. A pointless competition if you're struggling to get out of league 2. We need promotion, not a cup run.
Championship Plymouth Argyle 1 - 2 Leeds Utd :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Points 46; Position 23 RELEGATED :cry: :cry:

Absolutely not. Man U need to get into the habit of winning again, regardless of the competition. Give it another week or two and there'll be "Bring back Moyes" chants from the terraces... :shock: And who's to say what might have happened last season if Moyes had had the financial support Man U have given to Van Gaal?

Wot.....no response from the Spuds fans to them reaching the Capital Cup Final ??

Potentially a cracking final against Chelsea on March 1st.

As for Chelskis win over Liverpool.....Diego Costa,good player,but what a dirty b'stard !

The disappointment of losing to Crystal Palace then getting knocked out of the FA Cup has not worn off yet and the way we played last night tells me another 5-1 to Chelski. Well this is Tottenham TIT.

Come on, chaps, let's not be quite so despondent! It all depends which Spurs team turns up on the night - the one that beat Chelsea 5-3 or the one that lost to Palace and Leicester.

Offloading the overrated Lamela would be a start. And hopefully we'll have Lloris in goal.

Our main (ongoing) problems are defensive lapses and a poor goals to shots and possession ratio.

Looking on the bright side: Erikson, Kane, Lloris, Mason.

EDIT: It would be a bit of a bonus if Costa was suspended for the final...

I reckon the player who is most at fault is Soldado - whenever I've watched Spurs, he misses the most chances - if you had somebody like Costa in his place you'd walk it!!

I think it was somewhere in between! Ultimately, a comfortable, deserved win by Chelsea, with Cap'n Fantastic voted man of the match - not bad for the oldest player on the park!

Interesting article in the Independent for Spuds fans:
