Match Thread Huddersfield Town v Everton, Carabao Cup - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[tadpole]

We've got Doucoure and Gray still sat on the bench. Why ?

 

[Winslow89]

How old is Gomes? My dad has more athleticism at 76.

he has to be one of the slowest in the side for sure. if he’s that slow, you have to have other attributes making you a valuable player. The guy just isn’t a premier league quality player for me and has even less to offer than Sigs.

 

[TheNinja]

Yes really.

Cup we haven't won. We haven't won anything in a silly amount of years.

And we won't win this. We're not going to progress to winning domestic trophies until we're regularly in Europe and can compete for better players.

 

[Zatara]

Anyone mentioned that Benitez is probably just giving the 2nd string a run out?

Hes probably focusing on league position.

 

[DanEFC92]

The biggest goal threat we have out there now is, Micheal Keane???

What a state this club is in.

Yeah and that's for Huddersfield.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

How many years since we've won a trophy and this fella picks this team with no striker on the bench?!

Yeah, could’ve at least had a young striker on just in case if Richy and Dom need the rest

 

[hallamblue]

Not defending Benitez but all of the Premier League clubs are playing their reserves. I'm guessing it's due to a short summer and Covid effects.

 

[carolinablue232]

Good rugby tackle on Digne there

 

[wm02]

Gray coming on

 

[Paul Rideout]

Save us Gray

 

[davek]

Said the same when Marco Silva did it.

Only one person to blame for this and it's Benitez. Arrogant.

It's not arrogance, he's just not arsed about it...and no manager would be about the LC when he's down a player since he arrived and the club haven't backed him so far with transfer cash.

He knows he'll be judged by his employers by PL position.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Our second goal and their second both wrongly disallowed.
Handbags resulting in a red card. Awful officiating in this match.

I thought theirs was offside. Right in front of the keeper. Either way, yeah, they’ve been terrible.

 

[kleew]

Gray on

 

[carolinablue232]

midfield completely out of their depth

Midfield?

 

[Baxtinho]

Playing for pens, lads.
