2-1 AET. At least we won't be fielding a team of 11 reserves for the League Cup this year, mainly because we don't have 11 reserves.

I think we will win this but it won't be one of those convincing victories. It will be one of those scrapping, few that was close, victories that asks more quiestions than it answers.

I think we'll be lining up with the first full XI. This young / inexperienced team of ours needs to build up confidence so that next weekend they will be raring to go, rather than sitting back for 75 minutes before realising they're in a match.

--------------Guzan-----------
Lowton-Vlaar-Baker-Lichaj
---------Delph--KEA---------
Holman---------------Ireland
-------Weimann---Bent-----

A home cup game against a league one side can never answer any questions, if we trounce them 5-0 nobody would bat an eye lid.

That explains the uneasy feeling I have.

A convincing win (3-0) to raise false hopes that we don't really have any problems with this squad.

Can't see us keeping a clean sheet.

9-6.
