The Carabao/EFL Cup 2017-18 thread

Post by kancutlawns »

Hate this Carabao Cup moniker, the best league in the world being sponsored by this two bit Thai energy drink. Preferred the derided EFL title.

That aside, Villa almost humiliated yesterday in soggy Colchester and only profligate finishing and a few great saves from Jed Steer gave the Championship side a narrow 2-1 win.

Hammered the mighty Crawley 5-1 for a grand morale boosting victory.

That cunt Ched Evans scored a hattrick for your lot too. Is he on loan or has 'Arry signed him? He's apparently interested in buying Elphick from us although not prepared to pay over the odds for him.

Actually a decent match too, Dings. First half certainly was. Were it not for the penalty save right after we went 1-0, we could have been fooked. Samba was shit but the big man needs match practice to get going. Sticking him up front as Brucey did on Saturday was utterly stupid. Glad Adamoah's back.

Rowett bought him from Sheff U last season before he was sacked. Undisclosed but thought to be around £1.7m. He wants him for Derby but he can fuck off. Unconfirmed but looks like we have just signed Ogenyi Onazi for £4.5m (midfieled) but we are desperate for a couple of strikers Donaldson and Jutkiewicz are shite.

Easy to confuse Ched Evans with Che Adams.
No wonder the trial was so complicated.
