EFL Cup Semi-Finals 5th and 6th January

MrsGrey

Tonight, Spurs v Brentford; tomorrow Man U v Man City.

Come on you Bees!!

(To be honest I thought they stood no chance, but after looking them up I realise they are actually doing quite well in the Champo. So now I think they stand no chance...)

Wouldn't it be a nice winter bright spot if the B's won

steve

Yes it would

The winner of the EFL Cup go into the European Conference League.

Preston, should we have put a better team out @ Everton?

PrestonHammer

IMO, No. We'd be playing teams nobody has heard of.

So very much like the Europa League qualifying rounds...

PrestonHammer

Yes, but they'd be the group games.

Fortuneseeker

Preston, but we would be actually appearing in a European competition. If Jose/Mikel think it's a good path to follow then it can't be all bad.

PrestonHammer

It's a cup, yes but Jose wants the cup but not be in that competition. If they don't qualify for the Champions league, he'll be moaning about being in the ECL.
