Foxxed Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Out of the last eight four of them - Oxford, Colchester, Everton, Villa/Wolves - look like good draws but it'll be Man City or Liverpool.

I agree. But we should never have allowed them back into the game in the way we did. We became complacent and sloppy which is not like us and disappointing. Like you say, our final ball was awful and on another day, we would have scored more goals. It was our defensive frailties that concerned me most. We could have really struggled tonight against a championship or higher team. Justin was caught out quite alot and didn't look as confident as he did against Luton. Like I said, glad we won but the performance wasnt great.

Was well hit but should have done much better. Great save from the half volley later on though made up for it a little. More than made up for it. At that point it's 2-2 and Burton could have gone on to win the game. It was a very important save to make! A good one at that.
urban.spaceman Posted 29 October 2019 Author Posted 29 October 2019 Has anyone asked when the draw is yet?
ian_marshall Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Got the result but lacked application at times. Felt like a training match where one team who is clearly better than the other is taking it easy and not too serious whillst the other despite not being very good are giving it their absolute everything. To be truthful we never really got out of 1st gear but the finishing needs working on. Some of the chances that we wasted need to be put away. Anyway pleased to get through and I'm going to go against the grain here and say let's have Man City at home in the next round. That for me will again be another indicator of how far we've come under BR and let's be honest if we want to win this competition then we're going to have to play at some point so might as well get them out of the way now.

Nice for Kalechi to slot. Gray and Tielemans showed glimpses of glory. Sorry but disappointed with Nacho, second to every ball and totally ineffective after his goal. It just isnt going to happen for him. Certainly not good enough as an understudy for Vardy.

trabuch Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Gray is not a bad footballer. I want to give him a shake sometimes though. Wish he'd scored, it wouldn't do him any harm.

If you presume we will have to beat them at some point to win it. Then now is the time rather than a 2 legged semi or 1 off Wembley final.
Dr The Singh Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Frustrating game, could have killed it off with abit of control and composure, on another night we could have won that 6 -2 but on another we could have lost it aswell. Brendan needs to make sure the team do not become sloppy and complacent, too many times today, we gave the ball away or overplayed it. On a personal note, what a thrill it is watching your team in a hot winter sun, the swimming pool, drinking bear. Envy those cookers that have that lifestyle.

His first start and scored. What more did you want?

FoxFromCoalville Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 For those asking, the draw begins on Thursday at 8:45AM. You'll be able to listen live on BBC radio 2.

StriderHiryu Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 I didn't get to see the game, can someone give me a summary please :)? Also why was Kelechi subbed off if he scored? Injured? Or tired?

Maybe he’s trying too hard and gets frustrated? I dunno. I like him but he does my head in.

Very true but I also wouldn't fancy Liverpool over 2 legs either or in a 1 off final. Wish them bastards had been kicked out for fielding that ineligible player.
DerbyshireFox Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Tough watching that second half. We made heavy weather of that second half, too good for them first half. Wasted chances on the counter attack, but job done. Enjoyable in the home end, able to cheer the goals with no bother. One Dains accountants chant of the night 😂

urban fox Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 50/50 for a decent draw really but you just know it will be man city or liverpool. The way we are playing at the minute I suspect they will not put out a weakened side against us either. That said by the same token we could do them if we are on it. Getting that feeling that it could be our year for silverware.

Dr The Singh Posted 29 October 2019 Posted 29 October 2019 Lloyd Dyer was easily the man of the match
