How's we get on? Only 4 pages in the first half, that we dominated, where are we now ;-)

Is a shame. But I seem to recall he barely played after Xmas last year for us. Maybe there is something not right with Iheanacho that Pep saw early doors. Certainly appears to be a great bit of business by ourselves to get the fee we did

Arguably Bravo caused Vardy’s miss too because he seemed to have that post covered and Vardy dragged it at the last minute.

Summat in the back of my mind says FA don't have duristction over the League cup (previous 3 match bans for players able to play in league cup?) it being a knock out comp it is over with now they are out.

Yes!

Loved pep at the end but did you all notice the players chanting CITY CITY CITY in the fans after bravo saved ??

If zinchenko is a number 10 when will he get a non LB feature? Didn't know this and thought he did well.

Scores every pen again, as we should. Fair play to nmecha.

Mate, remember that this is the EFL Cup. It's the only jurisdiction they have!

If Gray is banned, it seems another team will benefit after de cheated City. There is something fundamentally wrong with that!

Missed the match, had to listen to most of it on talkshite while driving.
Just seen videos of the two pens, unbelievable.
Theirs was soft as fuck, really harsh, but Kyle didn't need to nudge him.
The one he got the yellow for was as blatant stonewall penalty as I've ever seen.
That wasn't incompetence, that was a fix.

Out tonight so just watched the full match. Absolutely brilliant team effort and well deserved. Madely MotM for Leicester. I thought he let them get away with all sorts and the penalty was a joke. Shame though that Walker even gave him the chance to dive as he should have been in full control of the situation and basically messed up.

We had two booked for diving. Probably ok decisions although the guy did try to baulk Gundo and just didn't make a good go at it. Walker could have been caught by the guy's leg but went over it with his dive. Contact was available but he missed it. But they got all sorts of fouls in their favour with diving.

Zinchenko excellent
Tosin excellent
Silva good and showed tons of quality but should have squared to jesus and finished the game
Delighted for Bravo. Did really well tonight even if gives palpitations
Yaya did a good job.
Well done Gundo. All round solid if not spectacular apart from the asist
Foden, Diaz quiet but good part of the team structure.
Great for Nmecha, what a great pen and for Bashiru.

and wow was Pep pumped with the win! So so pleased with getting through with that team and although it we only just got through I thought we were the better team and fully deserved it.
