So you aren't allowed to field your reserve team in a competition revamped to include extra matches against other club's reserve team?

Rules.are rules. If you don't like them, don't break them campaign to have them changed. If you do decide to break them, then don't whine about the penalty.

A general point about under strength selection, and that is if you are going to pick a load of youngsters or reserves, then say so before, so supporters can choose whether to attend.

Is Little Benny Woodburn the youngest Liverpool goalscorer to become the New Little Micky Owen ?
Get him in the England team now, if you're good enough, you're old enough.
He's in the Wales U-19 , but can still choose England .
The prestige of the English League Cup is so high it will be sponsored by a Thai energy drinks company and will be called the
Carabao Cup next season . So take that Checkatrade .

Liverpool lucked out last night. Leeds played well and deserved something from the game. Went to Anfield to win and put the likes of Sunderland and Man Utd to shame who shut up shop from the first whistle.

We're dishing out a good licking up the Arse.

Disgraceful team selection from Arsenal
3rd choice keeper
Back 4 lucky if they have played 5 games between them this season
2 recognised midfielders
3rd choice striker

Got what they deserved -fuck all
Well done Saints you can only beat what is in front of you.
Arsenal fans shat on once more

A pleasantly poor Arsenal selection: yet we made plenty of changes too.

Guessing the EFL really isn't high on Wengers priorities. Strange: it was a quarter final!

A lot of cockneys at OT this evening.
Quite a few West Ham fans too.

Dec 2014 I put the Scotch midget on ignore, he's not had a single response from me since then, yet everytime I open my notifications, there he is.
What a great life he must have.

For the good of the English game the EFL cup needs removal

No, genuinely never heard that before.
But because two Spurs fans said it within a week, I'm sure it's true. Just surprised I'd never come across that one before, especially as I sat next to a Spurs season-ticket holder at work for a couple of years.

It's on standby in case English teams are kicked out of Europe again. A calendar filler.
It may go the same way as the Checkatrade Trophy and formally announce that only reserve teams will be sent out
instead of the pathetic pretence that the first-team are competing prior to the semi-finals.
