24/25 English Cup thread

Nkunku is so good at winning headers and so bad at hitting them

Brutal luck for Morecambe, conceding off a pretty shitty deflection from a pretty shitty shot from a pretty shitty centre back

Tosin been Chelsea main scoring threat today.

On the positive side, it should settle some nerves for Chelsea going into half-time with a lead and no need to force things in the 2nd half. Reece James has been rather quiet today, Guiu hasn't been involved that much either.

Yateseh and we’re all in the Trent now

 

[Savant]

Chiesa is rusty but you can see he's got quality

I thought he was good. I thought Danns was good. I thought Ngumoha was good. I thought Darwin was bad again. It’s only Accrington Stanley though, but good that these guys are getting some game time.

Great shot from Tosin from distance to make it 3-0.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Tosin with a good shot from outside, gets his second

 

[gary69]

Plenty of time left for Tosin to go for a hattrick.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Tyrique George with two assists now

 

[Blender]

Well now the floodgates opened.

Plymouth Argyle take a 1-0 lead at GTech, driven by their new managerial hire Miron Muslic (fresh from bringing Cercle Brugge into the Conference League)

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

The Pilgrims knock out Brentford at the GTech

(muslic doesn’t actually start until tomorrow but I am giving him credit anyway)

Plymouth's first away win since April 2024 comes at probably the hardest PL stadium to visit.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Good piece

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Good debut for the lad but I don’t see how it was necessary. Not the biggest deal but he came to England 5 days ago, starts the match and tomorrow leaves back to Argentina to prepare for the u20s

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Are the names on the backs of City jerseys papyrus font?

 

[Jussi]

This kinda explains some of Roy's attitude. He was "trained" by Brain Clough after all.

I blame myself. ...and Wayne Rooney.

Roy doesn't have the charisma or drink tolerance.

 

[Jussi]

Roy doesn't have the charisma or drink tolerance.

I mean all the "no nonsense" approach to the game.

 

[al secord]

As a huge Smiths fan, that Salford beat down hurt.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

...was not expecting so many regulars

 

[maclean]

It would be nice if we also got to beat up on a lower league team to rotate and build confidence ahead of what's liable to be a difficult NLD, but anyways curious how we line up against a mercurial Utd side without the relentless pressure of the table ranking

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Tamworth forces Kinsky to make a nice stop right away

 

[Jack Straw]

I feel like i’m watching a high school game. I’m sure there are some high school football stadiums in Texas that are bigger than this.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Werner is shocking.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Spurs look afraid to take a step
