Right we're in the Semi-final of the Carling Cup from our excellent performance last night, there is only one more match to be played tonight between Chelsea and Liverpool, so who do you fancy in the next round.

Everton - difficult team this season (again) they've already beaten us 1-3 at home but they seem the weaker of the other contenders.

The Arse - Wenger's youngens is still being branded around by the media but as they have all been first team players at some point this season, lets let them bask in their fantasy.

Repeat of last years semi-final aswell so is revenge on our side?

Chelsea or Liverpool - depending on who wins tonight of course, but 2 very strong sides despite being third and fifth respectively, at home i think we can beat em but going to Anfield or the Bridge is another story.

Cast your vote.

Woolwich Wanderers IMO because the other teams will put out their strongest sides give or take one or two. We should have done Woolwich last year when we were 2-0 up, under Ramos i think we can cope a lot better over two legs and in cup competitions in general. And most of all i would just love to beat them after last year

Arsenal for me, because all the others will go all-out to win it (apart from perhaps Liverpool), whereas the Kiddy Fiddler is not as bothered and we'll probably have a slightly greater chance against them.

Having said that Spurs vs Arsenal would make a fantastic final, something I'd really love to see.

Don't want Chelsea under any circumstances.

Bring on Le Arse (in the cup)

I hope we get drawn against Arsenal in the cup semi tonight....

When we last played them there was this fallacy that the "kids" beat us.

The fact is they played their strongest team in the whole competition; Fabregas, Hleb, Rosicky, Toure, Eboue, Glichy, Senderos, Adebayor, Almunia, Baptista, Abou Diaby, Gilberto, Flamini, Walcott, these players all played some part in the two games. And in the second leg only Denilson and Traore were players unfamiliar to the first team. (starters in Bold)

whilst we were without; Jenas (first game), Lennon (2nd game) King (obviously :roll:) and Berby got Injured in the first 16 minutes of the first leg (at which point he was terrorising them) after he had helped us to a goal lead and played no part in the 2nd leg. and over 180 minutes we were level (ie we never actually lost in 2 90 minutes)

if they were to play the team they played against blackburn we'd murder 'em.

I think Wnger knows we'd beat that team as well, although he has promised the players he has already played, so he cant bring in all those "kids" who played against us last year.

I think this would be an easier game than 2 legs against Chelsea or Liverpool....

2nd leg at home would be nice though. :wink:

Everton, then Chelsea in the final. But I'd love to get Everton in the final as well, so I could get one over my husband!

i would love nothing more than to stuff arsenal and but to bed this talk of their fucking kids.

We should beat them if they played the same team as last night.

Arsenal all the way please.

Would be nice if Liverpool did a job for us tonight - they've got a bit of a hold over Chelsea in Cup competitions, let's hope it continues.

As for who I fancy: Steed Malbranque.

I want everton in the final. Really think they are going to start to struggle. Just a gut feeling. But then it may be better having them sruggling in the new year and face them in the final.

I want the Gooners.

We should never have lost that semi final last year. That game and our lame surrender to Chelsea in the FA Cup was the (downward) turning point in Jols career at WHL. In Ramos we trust, if he is the dogs bollocks - then this will be best way of testing our progress under Mr Juande-Wall.

Would love to reverse last year's semi and then take Liverpool in the final (when their season has already fallen apart).

I think we only lost last year because we were a tactically a bit naive in those games (before anyone jumps on me, I love BMJ but I do think he was weak in this area). Ramos would know enough to get past these foreign upstarts.

I have no fear apart from Blue scum to be honest.
