    This is the cup we could progress in despite the draw as the big clubs have champions league progression and league campaigns to think of and will likely play a weakened side right up to the final, meaning if Slav takes it more seriously and targets it as our season we have a chance of progressing.

    Although Arsenal will see it through the same eyes as us of course. ;wink

    that Arsenal ball is going to give someone third degree burns at this rate.

    Meanwhile, let's all laugh at Pep, complaining about the ball used for the Cupp competition.

    “It is too light, it moves all over the place, it is not a good ball. It is impossible to score with a ball like that"


    ;goal ;goal ;goal

    So that draw wasn't rigged.......much
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    Rigged! Sorry m, didn’t work until all four big clubs were separated. Oh and it was pre recorded for good measure ;doh
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    But another away trip ;barrera
  • sweepy23sweepy23
    And Wenger doesn’t usually take it seriously
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    What a shambles.

    Excellent draw for us. We have every chance. Norwich almost did them
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    For completeness....

    Chelsea v Bournemouth
    Arsenal v West Ham United
    Leicester City v Manchester City
    Bristol City v Manchester United

    Personally, I don't believe it is fixed. And I'm not a conspiracy theorist.

    But that line-up will only encourage those who do.

    And even I'm a bit ;hmm

    i got one of my predictions spot on....did i jinx us...
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    But the wrong one Yeold

    I’m just trying to work out the odds of the big 4 clubs being kept apart. Highly suspicious.

    London fixture with plenty of tickets. Could have been worse. COYI
  • TwistandShoutTwistandShout
    Absolute disgrace, the most obvious fix ever
  • jay_in_cptjay_in_cpt
    Spurs are better than Arsenal so no stress ;wahoo
  • whupathmanwhupathman
    Is it me of are we better away in the cup than at home?
  • HammerexHammerex
    That draw looks well dodgy to me, but to get Arsenal away was probably
    the best for us. Wenger normally rests his first eleven, and we seem to play
    better away than at home.

    I don’t normally believe in the theories either but I’ll tell you what they couldn’t of armed the ones that do any more if they tried

    Every draw in this competition has gone farcically wrong. This is the EFL's premier competition and they have become a laughing stock. Do the draw live on TV after the last game/s of the round. It really is that easy.
    All this nonsense of doing it at 4am or on Twitter or whatever. Nonsense.

    I don't really believe it was fixed but they do give it credence as Izzy stated.

    At least they got this bit right
