Manchester United take on Everton this evening the quarter-final of the League Cup. Having beaten Carlo Ancelloti’s side here 3-1 last month, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will be hoping his team can recreate a similar result.

United: Henderson, Tuanzebe, Bailly, Maguire, Telles, Matic, Pogba, Van de Beek, Fernandes, Greenwood, Cavani.
Subs: Martial, Rashford, Grant, Lingard, Fosu Mensah.

Everton: Olsen; Godfrey, Keane, Mina, Coleman; Gomes, Doucoure, Sigurdsson; Richarlison, Calvert-Lewin, Iwobi.

Tom Davies beard, not a good look.

Crazy Pogba yellow, you just cant tackle anymore.

We need a bit of spark, no energy in the second half.

I'm not watching this game in protest of Ole starting two players who are among the top ten of the most fielded players in the world 2020 (Maguire and Fernandes).

Pisses me off that he puts the PL campaign in jeopardy like that.

Far from the first time he refuses to properly rotate the squad as well. We saw what happened the last time - missed out on a preseason and started the season badly. As well as the team has done since that lately, they would be in first place now if Ole would fricking listen to me on this for once.

Just got home and turned on match. Not looking too dynamic. Heading to PKs it looks like.

I think there should be a system of appeals.

If youre sure the ref got it wrong, use an appeal. You start with 3 - a successful appeal you still have 3. get it wrong then youre down to 2. bit like in tennis.

too many wrong decisions and it would bring some justice but wouldnt slow things more than VAR anyway.

so many mistakes, Martial, ffs

a little bit of class in a sea of dross

Cavani just class and still running his socks off chasing Everton players in their third

Glad Martial scored, needs some confidence coming up the xmas.

Cavani was absolutely fucked there at the end, couldnt break with Rashford after chasing back,

Martial did what rashers should have done. A minute earlier just pass into corner instead of powering it right at keeper. Needs to get that in his arsenal and get more goals after doing the hard work to get it in the box. Who are other three teams besides city in draw?

Spurs and BrentFord. So tough road ahead for a trophy.

should have been three up at half time and game all over. Instead (almost) did it the hard way. Continuation of away form bodes well for Wembley?

Unitedyankee. I'd rather City in the semis so we can dump out catenaccio jose in the final. Though I see free scoring Brentford dumping his ultra defensive behind out the cup in their tie. We are winning this certainly.

Onwards and upwards!!!

Credit needs to be given when it is due!

For the second match in a row, we started the match very positive!

Unlike the previous match, this time idiosyncrasies were at the front risking to lose a match that should have been finished after 20 min.

Anyway, let’s hope this is a true new dawn at United and we go on a great run this season!

Bring on Shitty!

Still think we could have won without Maguire and Fernandes in the starting eleven. The PL should be the priority.
