If you drink ale before the match then be aware that the pubs have changed a bit since our last visit.  It's the same around the train station but the Swan & Rushes, Charlotte and the Criterion have all gone.

I'm going for a 1-1 Draw.

Everybody

Play jota or trez up front in my opinion. I think grealish and mings will be kn the bench for this one.

Leicester will play vardy so they will.go strong. Ss long as we put up a better fight than that pathetic showing at home earlier in the season

If we're going to play a midfielder up front I'd rather it was Hourihane. He is actually a very good finisher and has a deadly strike.

Is Drinkwater eligible ?

Better let Danny know

Cup tied, I believe.

[Hookeysmith]

That's a shame

It’s a semi final.   He has to play a full strength side - or what’s the point.

and it should make that decision easier because we have Man City at the weekend and we won't be winning that no matter how many players he rests

[villa `cross the mersey]

Is Drinkwater eligible ?

Cup tied, I believe.

So he  is therefore available for a pre match drink at his former club

All seems a bit futile.

It does- especially as it looks like we’ll be facing Man City in the final, should we get there. Ya gotta believe though!

We've moved from rank outsiders to win the League Cup to firm 3rd favourites in a couple of hours !
