tzijlstra   11 #13 Posted August 11, 2015 When we won the league Cup, it was a fantastic day. I'm not one to dismiss the competition, neither are the top clubs when the Final gets close.  Imagine this: Sheffield Wednesday League Cup Winners 2015.  Looks good dunnit?  I know I am alone in disliking the Cups, particularly this one, I just don't think it is useful to add to the match-load when we already have 46 league games to worry about.

Wednesday can now field two teams and use a completely different eleven . All they have to do is play foot ball ,its not as though they are doing a 12 hour shift in Steel Peach and Tozer is it!

Southey owl   10 #16 Posted August 11, 2015 Although continuity is ok , i reckon Carlos will put Lewis Price in goal and name a mostly second string x1 . That way he gives everyone an opportunity to show and at the same time sort out the players who need to go out on loan. An under strength starting x1 should be too much for Mansfield and i expect them to run out 3 - 0 winners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It would be nice to have a cup run, and if the Sheffield teams did draw each other it would bring back the missing derby excitement we've all been denied these last few seasons. The Owls have not figured very well in the cups in recent years whilst the Blades have hogged the limelight ,and rightly so.  With Wednesday having a large squad and talented players i wouldn't be surprised if Carlos named a team something like the following!!!!!  Lewis Price  Palmer Lachman Sasso Wiggins  Lavery Lee Semedo Sougou  Joao Bus  Watched Jack Stobbs in th U'21's and reckon the right - sided midfielder may also be given a run-out. Owls to win 3 - 0. Edited August 11, 2015 by Southey owl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Southey owl   10 #24 Posted August 11, 2015 Think he,'ll be off on loan soon.  That's exactly why i didn't include May in the team , dobby. Hope he does'nt finish up at the Lane , if so he'd do well as he would most Lge 1 teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
