Then you'll end up bankrupt because the League Cup isn't something we cry ourselves to sleep over going out of. We can beat City. We would probably have had to have met them at some stage anyway, so it's good to get it out of the way. I can actually see it going to a replay for what it's worth, but I wouldn't have thought he'll be regretting anything.

There's been poorer premeirship's. But we should have signed a bigger player in the Summer. The only foreign mercenary is kettleneck, the irony being he might be playing Champions League football after the new year.
