Carabao Cup - Third Round ** Spoilers ** [26th - 27nd September 2023]

Hopefully Palace retain this form for the weekend. Pretty poor

Hojlund time. Offers so much more than martial

 

[Calpol]

Got to say, Maguire been pretty solid tonight

He's been up against nothing. Literally nothing. I could have played CB tonight and kept a clean sheet.

No he hasn't he got turned inside out earlier like he always does but Amrabat saved him.

He will always have that ability to get skinned by the opposition. You cannot get rid of that with training. That is down to natural ability and spacial awareness.

 

[bingham67]

Dont watch Palace much but surely not many of these we shall see at the weekend.

Got to say, Maguire been pretty solid tonight

He's had to defend twice. The first time he got played around like he was standing still, second he put in a tackle. Hardly a MOTM performance.

There hasn't been a palace player in our half for 90% of the game.

Its been pathetic from them tbh. Why they would "rest" players in a competition they have a chance of winning for one they dont is beyond me.

 

[Reuben klang]

Palace still parking the bus at 2-0 down, at least try and play football.

I’ve never understood this mindset in a cup game? To be honest I’ve never understood it when there’s 10 minutes to go and a team is losing 1-0, surely it’s better to risk getting 1-1 than just accepting the loss?

 

[sigma]

Close match, as per my prediction, could have gone either way

Especially this season considering how woeful Luton and Sheffield are. You will not get a season like that again. All these smaller teams should be going all out for a cup run.

Especially when the likes of Leicester come back up or even old firm clubs like Ipswich, Sunderland etc. It will be a lot more competitive next season.

 

[bingham67]

Casemiro back in gear

 

[Shamikebab]

Luton lost to Exeter

 

[ryu]

Luton lost to Exeter

Hopefully we get them in the next round (United that is)

 

[Droolinggimp]

I googled heat maps for player tonight and came across Sofascore. I have heard of it but never actually visited the site. Wow, what a wealth of information on everything.

Sofascore is brilliant, i like the attacking momentum charts. The average positions is handy aswell. I do think the player ratings can be a bit skewed though.

 

[ArcticHeron]

Don't fancy Everons chances tonight. Villa park an absolute fortress at the moment.

 

[Mark1989]

No idea how our game will go, I’m sure Doek will start though and Gravenbach

Jones at RB? Should be interesting.

 

[C Kent]

The 'hybrid' rb/cm role for him will be a proper test of what he's got. Looking forward to the game, nice to have a decent 2nd team regardless

 

[omnomnom]

10 changes...nice.

 

[Tombstone]

I've got a sneaky feeling that Leicester will do us tonight, might check the odds on that
