Oh, I reckon he will, fella.

All out to win something this season I reckon. And this is the only thing we can win.

Didn't exactly go all out in the League Cup though.

Arsenal away and Unai will return to The Emirates and give his old side a jolly good hammering!

No, that's true.

I like to think it was just his way of running the rule over his squad. I may well be wrong of course.

And I think if it wasn't for Olsen and our abysmal defence, we'd have won that.

Played mostly first teamers IIRC. I'd expect the same here, unless we get a really lower league or non-league team, which obviously we won't.

He picked a team that scored twice and created enough chances to win the game. And even if he picked a full strength side individual errors and fuck ups happen. Man U changed things up to. We could and should have won.

At the outset of the game, he picked a weakened team. Whatever then transpired, it wasn't going all out to win it.  It was a shit line up, as just about everybody including you alluded to in the pre-match thread.
