BTW, Cardiff pwning the [censored] out of West Brom. Old men Fowler and Hasselbaink with goals.

wee. Lol they just showed a replay of the Convey goal. There were no fewer than 3 Reading players blatantly offsides.

both all Prem matches today are really the only interesting ones.

Personally, I don't mind much if Arsenal get knocked out, although its good to give the young players some valuable PT. However, last season Arsenal got knocked out of everything, all at the same time, while the eventual league winners ManU were knocked out in the 3rd round.

watching the Pool/Reading game since there are no <blanks> available of the arsenal toon game.

I don't know how this Cup traditionally plays out but for Liverpool I think its a very good chance to get their younger players some experience, specifically Leta, Lieva, and Hobbs as well as guys like Aurelio and Benayoun who haven't seen much time with the first team much. I'm enjoying the play of Leta very much. The attack at times has been very good but for stretches its been quite sloppy.

These are single leg matches right? Will they play overtime and then penalties in the result of a draw?

Re: ****Offical 2007-08 Carling Cup Thread****
 

Yes extra time and penalties if it is a draw. listening to the arsenal game on the radio and it sounds like they are playing some amazing football

Interesting lineup for Arsenal, good to see the young guys getting some PT as well as Diarra and Eboue.
