Interesting how they’ve both played near enough full strength teams, whereas some other EPL clubs haven’t in round 5.

A few seasons back, most EPL clubs weren’t taking the FAC and LC that seriously, until near the final.

5-4 Toffees.

Davinson Sanchez is SO shit at defending. He has to score a hat-trick just to make up for his error- strewn performance at the back.

Carlo and Jose will want to win something. The league is beyond them. They are in a different type of pressure than the managers at the bottom.

Interesting though the mixed FAC teams picture. The big financial prize for the likes of Leicester and Spuds is CL football, UEFA paid LCFC £70m in 2016/17. Especially important with restricted crowds. Yet LCFC risk 6 first team names tonight, including the all important Vardy.

Spuds have ManC in the LCF, that’ll be difficult.

Agreed on the financial front but Spurs and Everton haven't won a trophy in ages. LCFC have never won the FA Cup. Win a trophy. The fans are happy. Manager keeps his job.##

##edit. This does not apply to Chelsea

I wonder what it was that was on the clipboard shown to Kane as he was subbed on yesterday?
I can't see it being tactics or where on the pitch he was expected to play so maybe it was just a timely reminder of his goal bonus figure?

Do you remember the Spuds loving media always banging on about they win the FAC in years ending with a 1.

Well, another one passes by :lolol:
