Pep Guardiola wants League Cup to be scrapped to ease fixture congestion

Thoughts? I personally agree - and it would give the FA Cup a bit more focus and priority for teams.

ffs, give us a chance to win summit.

I’ve said this for years.

Given that by the time the FA Cup starts for the top 2 divisions, there are only 4 teams left in the league cup, it'll make little to no difference at all to the FA Cup.

 

[Portishead Mackem]

Make it optional.....they can opt out if they want.
is he also against the extra 4 champions league games?

 

[mutley]

Aye it must be difficult to compete in all the competitions with such a small squad and tight budget. Bless him.

I want Pep to fuck off... he probably will before long anyway.

Yep the Spanish only have the Copa del Rey which is still a competition all the clubs want to win

Completely disagree. It's one of the very few chances that clubs have to win a major honour.

Him suggesting that the competition is binned off is basically because his team plays too many Champions League games. A problem that the overwhelming majority of clubs don't have.

He can piss off.

Exclude the teams that qualified for europe by all means but don't scrap the competition. Oh, and if that is done, stop the top teams from playing friendly games abroad to rake in dosh.

Got to agree with him, play a few more league matches midweek earlier in the season so the FA Cup can have a bit more focus later on in the season.

 

[Steve H]

He can go to hell

 

[redandwhiterob]

If they are that bothered they shouldn't be looking at extending the champions league by a couple of games

Wishful thinking that!!

 

[Freddie the Greek]

Gan back abroad if you dinnit like it Pep lad.

 

[Mackem00]

Couldn't agree less. Pre-season tours around the world and extra champions League games can go first thanks.

And I'm sure that it was a huge moment for fans of those clubs. I know that it would have been for us if we'd beat city.
