Great goal by Cavani to win Man U the game 1-0 against Everton. This puts them into the semi final, would be fun if they avoid Man City. That would be a great final

They may not avoid Manchester city in the semi finals, even if they do one or both of them may not be in the finals, its not sealed for a Manchester team to win the cup, some good teams like Tottenham are still there and Brentford shouldn't be taking lightly.
 Manchester united left the win up-until the 80the to the final whistle, not the luck Everton wanted, and Prof Anceloti would have had an eye on this cup to atleast win something, FA cup and the league may be too much to win for them.

I did place bets for tonights EFL cup games.

Tottenham to win.
Man Utd win/draw.

(...)

In current situation this match is going to be draw/manchester united because they are doing some better then everton but no one know what happen in second half because this match can change momentum any time because everton is also doing good but need some more time to do some good.

Yes, both single bets was a hit. Tottenham won and Man Utd won as well. Everton held it well for majority of the game but they lost it during the last few minutes and Cavani, being a sharp forward, took the lead in the 88th minute before Martial put the game to bed.  Man Utd are through to semi-finals stage where they join other qualifiers - Brentford, Man city and Tottenham.

Yeah. That finish showcases Cavani's class. After seeing him in the starting line up today, I knew he would get on the scoresheet and he didn't disappoint! For semi-final round, I'd like to see:

Man city vs Tottenham
Man Utd vs Brentford

Hopefully Man city will retaliate for what Tottenham did to them this season in the EPL and Man Utd will win comfortably against Brentford so we can have a Manchester-derby like EFL finals!

[BIT-BENDER]

Rather I would want Tottenham vs Brentford, and a derby, Manchester city vs Manchester united this will make an exciting semi finals, Tottenham should be serious with this cup, if the trophy empty jinx is to break, although Mourinho is going to bloat up with pride over it, the north London white jersey team need a trophy in there cabinet and they are close to the Caraboa cup.

Late goals saved the day for ManU and now we have 2 Manchester's in the finals in addition to Spurs and Brentford. If I would split 100% chances to win the Cup, I will say 40% City, 35% ManU, 25% Spurs and 0% Brentford.

I agree with you that Tottenham should be serious about winning the EFL Cup this year, especially if it is true that Tottenham met Brentford
in the semifinals, it would not be difficult for Tottenham to beat Brentford and advance to the final. So Tottenham's chances of winning the EFL
Cup are wide open, and I'm sure Mourinho realizes this. Hopefully Tottenham can meet Manchester United in the final, it will be an emotional
match for Mourinho who was sacked by Manchester United.

It will be difficult for Tottenham to win the cup with the presence of the two Manchester clubs if the next fixture paired Tottenham against Brentford and they eventually wins the tie then winning any of the duo of Manchester clubs will be an herculean task, although Man Utd lost 6-1 against Tottenham in the last EPL match that shouldn't be the yardstick to assume or predict that Tottenham will win the cup if paired against Man Utd  they has always been defeating them in their previous matches the last bashing against Man Utd was as a result of early Red card  awarded to Anthony Martial.

Seems like glory is coming back. That is CAVANI's impact and It's demonstrated ManU even seals the wins in fantastic style in the last second. Martial deserve a very big applause. Overall a great team performance! The consistency is the way to win cups cause it improves the confidence!

The percentage for Manchester City should be more than 40%, I give them 50% rest of the team to share the remaining 50%, City are favourites to win the Cup, they play mostly their first eleven for this competition unlike other teams so I expect them to dominate it till final, Spurs can be the only team to stop city from winning it and that's under maybe

Just woke up, forgot about the semi final draw last night. It’s Spurs vs Brentford & Man Utd vs Man City. Mourinho will like his chances of reaching the final, the other game will be a good fight though, normally I’d 100% expect City to win but their standards have dropped a little & United are in form.

No need to crake brains on who advances to the finals on this one, its surely going to be Spurs Vs Manchester city. Who lifts the trophy, that's a thug of war for Mourinho and Pep. Its more of a big deal for Pep than it is for Mourinhno with they way i see it as, the EPL is out of reach for Pep this season.

Signing these old bones into the EPL are really paying off for Spurs and Manchester united with both Gareth Bale and Edinson Cavani netting the first goals for their respective teams and advancing there win leads in the game. So they weren't really dumps by the way, they've got quality play still.

[cryptofrka]

Tottenham was really lucky with the draw throughout the whole cup. They drew Leyton Orient in 3rd round and won without playing, because Leyton Orient had a COVID crisis in their team and were unable to field a team.
In 4th round they had Chelsea at home, the only difficult fixture but both teams played with a lot of backup players and Tottenham was luckier in the penalty shootout. After that, Stoke and Brentford for the final.

I kinda tip them to win it now, especially if they play City. For Tottenham it will be the world cup final and for City only a nuisance while they chase bigger trophies.

That could be a deciding factor and Mourinho is a specialist for the games you "need to win and not play". I believe he would actually prefer to play against City, since Pep will attack him and he can play his favorite bunker strategy and rely on quick counter attack. I can already see it, City 80% ball possession, 0:0 in 75th minute somebody clears the ball from Spurs defense, Kane shields the ball around center and gives a trough pass to Son who scores from the first Spurs shot on goal.

If by any chance United gets to the final against Spurs I am placing a bet on under goals and maybe even on 0:0.

Mourinho parks the bus often when he needs to but the problem is that it never worked in the Premier League.You cannot park the bus against teams which force you to play openly as they like to attack.Almost all teams of the Premier League play an open football and Mourinho park the bus strategy I think it will not work.

and that's what we have got two derby's a London derby when Spurs to face championship london team Brentford and a Manchester derby.
The semis are close I think they are going to be played in 4rth of January while finals will take a while that will be 25th of April.
The Manchester derby will be more interesting to see as the last match saw a goalless draw as both teams were not in a good shape and didn't want to risk it. So it was a boring as hell of a game I hope the cup game will be more entertaining. Anyone can win this game but I don't know why I favors United maybe because City looks to be missing a finisher as Sterling and Gabriel waiste a million a chances per match to score one in the end. I hope Guardiola stop his Philosophy and plays Mahrez he is a much better of a finisher if he is giving a chance.

I found a more detailed version of the top player ratings.

Someone was asking how the ratings are formed.

Its not much clearer, see some weird numbers here and there. 1 dribble?   lol

Mourinho won titles in the past playing this anti football, it’s very ugly but it has won him trophies in the past. The thing is when he won those trophies he was at clubs with multiple world class players, at Spurs he doesn’t have that luxury.

I think success for him this season would be top 4 & winning the Carabao Cup. They are not going to win the PL playing that way with those players.

Depends on what you love and who you are a fan of. If you're a neutral spectator, you want action, lots of goals and no boring defenses for 90 minutes. However, if a team's capabilities are limited, you have little choice. Mourinho played very good football with Inter in 2010 and that was certainly not just a defender. And very efficient, they then won the Champions League.
I give them a good chance this year in the race for the title, but usually City and Liverpool are to strong.

[masulum]

The data shown "successful dribbles", so it's normal for Silva or other player if he just got 1 points. Since in football, AFAIK, successful dribble will be counted if the players make a opportunity to make a goal from his dribbling from their zone. that why even he done with 10 or more dribbling but not creating an opportunity, it will not count as "successful dribbles".

about the points as you said, I'm trying to find another source, Silva have 2 points I don't know where the most accurate, but It's normal if players just get low successful dribble data, especially for defender.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Surprised to see from Liverpool only two players are in top 20 and only one is in top 10. Salah with 13 goals obviously makes a good difference but how about Van Dijk, Alisson?

Is this top player of the week or month or a long year? Post the link, maybe we can find some other clue.
