Col city fan Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 Would be very surprised if this is anywhere near a full house, especially if Sky televise it. People are paying for the Champs League games too this season. I think this cup will be the one they don't pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you take mid table mediocrity and knocked out of the CL group stages to win more silverware? Yes. Football is all about winning things. The more trophies we win the better no matter what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyJones Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 Hey, we are a top team. Top teams like to play against each other, it's what we fought our way out of the championship for. Personally think Chelsea at home is a sight more interesting than Forest / Derby / Northampton away. Pleased with the draw, chance to knock out a key opponent.

Does nothing for me to be honest. I'll be there but there's no way on earth I'd have it over Derby or Forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain... Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 I doubt Conte would risk putting Kante in this game. He will make a number of changes and he will be the first if he has any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 Imagine if we had drawn a lower-league team and fouled out in convincing fashion... Not overly happy with Chelsea, as it usually spells disaster and I'm not keen on seeing Kanté against us this soon. But we've proven we can beat these in the league, so why not doing it again? Plus, it's at home - so a cupset more likely I'd say. Cut to: Three weeks later when we're playing them in the league... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EGBFitness Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 Not really bothered to be honest, as long as we put in a good performance I'm not bothered if its first team, reserves or under 12's. In all fairness, we could probably do with being out of this cup this season, we're going to have so many games between Sept-Dec with travelling too so an early exit could be a good thing. Would rather we said we went out to Chelsea than knocked out to Accrington and then seeing this place meltdown. If we win then all good and we keep going but personally think better to concentrate on league and champions league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglishOxide Posted 24 August 2016 Share Posted 24 August 2016 We seem to always get Chelsea in the cups. Let's get Ben Marshall in on loan for a game so he can score our screamer in a spirited 1-2 loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
