⚽ EFL Carabao Cup 2026/27 Season

[Sim_card]

I'm not, I said that based on their current performance and the situation of the club, they've not been consistent this season and their defense is very poor. If Michael Carrick keep relying on Cunha as an attacker instead of trusting Sesko, I doubt if there would be improvements, you can see the number of chances they wasted cause they're lacking a real striker.

Having good quality players is an advantage but guarantees nothing when the confidence of the team is low but if they meet a team that has similar situation they might end up winning and building their confidence with them, which is why I feel Tottenham might win Manchester United if they meet.

Manchester United hasn't still gotten a good replacement for Casemiro who understands Cunha and Fernandez properly because last season, there combination was superb. Another thing is Manchester United defense, there's still a loop hole to fix because their opponents finds it easy to score them. I believe as the season goes farther, Carrick will fix the problem. Sesko should be allowed to play full time or 75 minutes.

Some matches from this round wrapped up yesterday, so I want to talk about the game that really caught my eye for several reasons—a match involving two managers whose reputations are currently suffering due to their teams' early-season performances (at least from what I’ve seen so far). However, one of these managers is in a much worse position than the other. I’m talking about this match:

Liverpool 3 - 1 Spurs

In this game, I saw two teams facing issues, but the one with fewer problems came out on top. Neither team’s attack is anything special, but Liverpool has at least been consistent in scoring two goals in most of their matches; this often helps them avoid defeat, which is crucial given their defensive struggles. If they could just fix that defense, they’d be in great shape. On the other hand, we have Tottenham, who are struggling in both attack and defense and have a very weak squad. Honestly, I don't understand the Tottenham manager; he had plenty of time to scout and sign quality players, yet he failed to do so.

Savinho: played only 2 Premier League games, with 0 goals and 0 assists.

Mateus Fernandes: played 4 Premier League games, with 0 goals and 0 assists.

Omar Marmoush: played 3 Premier League games, with 0 goals and 0 assists.

A team like Tottenham which was very close to the relegation zone last season is going to spend money signing players who wouldn't even have a regular spot in Manchester City's starting XI? It was obvious that Manchester City wouldn't sell key players; they sold the ones who wouldn't be missed. Tottenham made a bad deal; the club needs people with talent and vision to sign good players, as these new signings aren't delivering any benefits.

Whether they used second team or not, were you expecting Ipswich to just win Arsenal like that? Is you forgot that Arsenal are the current premier League Champions and they're super in form right now so for you to defeat them as a team you will have to apply different winning strategies in achieving that. You took Arsenal so low to think that Ipswich will have win.

I wonder why anyone will be expecting Ipswich to win the game against Arsenal yesterday. Arsenal has a very good and strong squad and I can also say that they are the best team in England right now, so Ipswich never stood a chance against them. I think Ipswich was good at some point in the game, but they already knew that they can't match the quality of this Arsenal team. They must be really happy that they scored 2 goals against Arsenal and that should be a positive for them, but anyone expecting them to win Arsenal is just in a world of their own.

One reason for this could be the home advantage, although I don't think Ipswich Town had a chance against a top team like Arsenal. Arsenal will be the favourites against Ipswich Town, whether it's an away match or a home match, and will have a 99% chance of winning. However, anything is possible in football, so maybe someone was expecting Arsenal to lose. Arsenal have finally proven them wrong.

My focus now is on the Manchester United vs Brighton and Coventry vs Aston Villa matches. The results of these two matches are still uncertain and likely to be unpredictable. I have no doubts about Manchester City.

Oh, I am just realizing now that casemiro have not been playing recently but regardless Manchester united now has enough midfielders and the absence of Casemiro alone should not be noticable but the performance of Manchester united is showing they are missing someone but even when this dude was there they still do experience this setbacks so it is no new thing for them. They will be playing Brighton soon, I wonder what the result will be, because Brighton is one of there nightmare.

You can never really place a bet confidently on early cup rounds. The big clubs rotate their starting lineups and often play lots of youngsters.

I have totally stayed away from gambling tonight because there are just too many unknowns in the early rounds.

But will Manchester United prove everyone wrong in this match?  Manchester United are already 2-0 up, with the first goal in just the 8th minute and the second goal in the 10th minute. Everyone thought Brighton would be a very strong opponent for Manchester United, but Manchester United have confirmed their lead early on. But now there is a lot of time left in the match, the match has only been going on for 20 minutes, let's see if there are more goals in the first half, but I think Brighton will score and they will try to turn the match around, but Manchester United started quite aggressively, now it seems that Manchester United will win the match with a big score. But since there is still a lot of time left, let's see if any unexpected situations happen in the match.

It's suprising to see Manchester United score 2 goals before 20mins from the look of things it seems they’ll prove everyone wrong cause they've had more chances than the opponents. I didn't watch from the beginning but i checked the goal scores to see that it was Manson Mount and Shey Lacey the academy graduate.
 That dude has lots of potential, i began to observe him since the match against Atletico Madrid, i hope Michael Carrick would give him chance in the Premier League maybe bench Mbeumo when he's not performing well for the young lad. Heaven and Yoro looks like a good pair, they're defending well but i hope they don't make mistakes in the 2nd half.

The match is not yet over so the unthinkable can still happen because there are some matches were Manchester United scored 2 goals ahead only for their opponent to equalise the score. If Manchester United don't score more goals Brighton might actually equalize because they are already giving Manchester United pressure. Brighton is not a regular team that can be beaten without them pulling up dramatic display. Just like match they played against Chelsea in the Premier league, they were losing from 3:0 but they almost equalised the score because the matched ended 4:3 so Manchester United should be aware of this and try as much as possible to score more goals.

Which particular game are we talking about here? 

So far, the big clubs won their match as expected in this round. Arsenal and Liverpool won yesterday. Only West ham failed to win yesterday against Fulham and to be honest, I won't consider West ham a big club against Fulham considering their recent form.

On today's game, Manchester United is winning 2-1 at half time. Aston villa is also winning 2-1 at half time. I suppose these are the big clubs in this competition and you could have made some profit betting on them. Manchester city is yet to play and I assume they're going to win too.

Brighton just scored a goal at the very last minute of the first half before going on a break by Charalampos Kostoulas, hence, making it 2 goals to 1 before the half-time. And right now both teams have started the second half while Brighton to be having the most ball possession and playing a very good game, but the only challenge Brighton seems to have is having good shots on target, which seems to be Manchester United's advantage in this game. And secondly, for the fact that Manchester United last their last match against City at this same old Trafford, United won't want to lose today's game again, which might have been the obvious reasons by their quick momentum at the start of the game with the two goals scored by Shea Lacey and Mason Mount within a space of 2 minutes interval. So this game is likely to end a victory to United or a draw.

[Juicyhome]

Michael Carrick should just leave  Manchester United,  how can you be losing at old Trafford from 2 goals lead to 2:3. This is the worst game I have ever watched at old Trafford,  these players are not serious,  I can't even continue the game, I'm so angry over this lost , its hight time we accept that Manchester United is not longer a big club, the better for me. The management to the coach and players are all bad to management this big club.

I keep saying that, we can't win anything with this out shitty defenders, there is not good players in our defense, so how can we win any trophy with that, it's annoying to watch a glorious club like Manchester United falling to zero because of poor management.

Manchester United is currently losing after having a beautiful start, it seems they only planned to play good football for 10 mins then become shit for the rest of the game. This is one of the most embarrassing performance so far, how can they score two early goals then be losing in the second half. No no no, it's time to say goodbye to Michael Carrick cause he's becoming clueless on how to handle the team as a full time manager, maybe his job is only to save the team as an interim, lots of quality players but not good tactics to make them play good football.

How did Brighton come from a 2 goals behind and won Manchester United is still something I'll trying to grasp. Manchester United is as good as finished because this is the poorest performance i have seen from them. Though in the first half, Brighton was pressing more despite that Manchester United was leading. What is reall happening to Michael Carrick because I no longer understand what is going on. Same Manchester that finished last season in a good position are now struggling to win their matches.

I keep saying that, we can't win anything with this out shitty defenders, there is not good players in our defense, so how can we win any trophy with that, it's annoying to watch a glorious club like Manchester United falling to zero because of poor management.

This season, a lot of teams have problem in their defense but the strikers sometimes help to balance it. When they concede, they score. Was surprised to see that all Manchester United attackers couldn't score again after they got a 2 goals lead. If care is not taken, Carrick might lose his managerial role at the club.

Another shocker just happened tonight, and I think many gamblers that bet tonight will lose their bets, because Manchester United just lost to Brighton at Old Trafford. Manchester United were leading with 2 goals, before Brighton turned things around. There much expectations on Manchester United to bounce back from their weekend defeat, but they have just added more salts to their already inflicted injury. Things like this makes me avoid cup matches as well.

Manchester United is not a team which we are even suppose to be confident in, they were leading with two goals, but Brighton equalized and won the match. Before the match started I knew Manchester United will find it difficult to win a match like this, because they have not been consistent this season. Brighton is just a dangerous team which is always difficult to win. Carrick is having lots of work to do, because how will you be winning with two goals, and you end up losing the match. It’s so disappointing that Manchester United are already out of the EFL. Brighton is a team which most teams are suppose to be careful with, they are just difficult to predict, and they so dangerous.

What went wrong for the Red Devils? Because they took the lead in the early minutes of the second half and before 15 minutes of the game, Manchester United were already leading 2-0 with amazing goals scored but things didn't just go as planned as Brighton fought hard to score a goal in the first half to make it 2-1 and second half, the seagulls apply more pressure and equalize the game.

Manchester United were absolutely getting mortify at Old Trafford and nothing to comment on this particular game because they were favorite to win but again, I asked, what went wrong? Micheal Carrick did make substitute that was not favorable for the team or the players weren't getting a good game?

[Majestic-milf]

 Two times in a row Man UTD get tumbled at the Old Trafford and I'm beginning to think that their problem is something more than just what we're seeing because make it make sense; how can a team score two quick goals only for them to go and lose it all in second half?
When they played against Man City, they were having a man advantage yet they couldn't win the game.
 At this point it's safe to say that even the UCL competition, Man UTD can't be trusted to last long.

[buwaytress]

Brighton were almost 5/1. And they played so well in the league, United not so much. The signs were there. Old me would have jumped at the odds. I didn't. Wonder what live odds were when Brighton were 2-0 down? Why do I do this to myself? LFC_Bitcoin did the right thing. Stayed away.

[Agbamoni]

Brighton conceded 2 goals in the space of 10 minutes. Every Manchester United fan had in mind that the win was coming home, until Brighton changed the game instantly.

It still feels like a dream that Brighton came back from 2 goals down, equalized, and beat Manchester United at United's home.
