TOTTENHAM NEWS: Carabao Cup Draw: Spurs to Face Coventry City Away, Week Commencing 16th September

[@doughall8306]

We must put a strong team out against Coventry. They should have been in last year’s cup final. COYS

[@palaneproductions7357]

The reserves will play, its not a EPL team..johnson Weiner Riccho up front

[@TheRealist2024]

@@palaneproductions7357 Have you never heard of cup upsets?

[@Rqiskinq]

Some fools was tweeting on twitter to play all second strings they never learn at all don't underestimate how small is the team

[@stephenomenal29]

As long as the game doesn’t go to penalties

[@chookz]

Ok, that means no Ben Davies

[@doogies12]

The players let Ange down last year, he gave players the chance to fight for their place in the first team selection and they just bottled it. He learnt at that point to clear them out

[@alexjutasi8394]

I think Ange is very smart and knew what his squad was capable of, and had to focus on thr Prem and not cups, obvious to me.

[@StephanosAllen-um5ko]

We lost on penalties, away to a team who beat Arsenal in the league With the context now I think that loss was blown out of proportion a bit, especially considering the first team got smashed when they played Fulham away.

[@neil364]

Let's be honest, Chris. Ange had every right to expect better from the team he put out last season against Fulham. They weren't exactly a group of untested kids, were they. They were mainly players that we had been using in our first 11 before Ange arrived. Fulham made 7 changes themselves, if I recall. I personally am hoping he puts out a strong squad, but if he can go 3 up with time still to play, I also hope he does try out some of the less used members. Including Mikey Moore, etc, as you rightly say.

[@stephenomenal29]

Be careful what u wish for.look at what Coventry did to Man U last season 😂

[@StephanosAllen-um5ko]

The first team lost away at Fulham 3-0 though? Fulham also beat Arsenal in the league. Damned if you do and damned if you don’t, if the first team didn’t get through he’d get it in the neck even worse. Could you imagine the reaction if someone got a knock too. Looking back with the injury crisis and suspensions we had I don’t think it would’ve helped the situation if we had a couple more games to play in the carabao.

[@neil364]

@stephenomenal29 I thought Coventry were excellent in that game and were so unlucky. I also remember only too well our first ever loss in an FA Cup final. However, you have to beat every team you face to win a cup so let's hope we can do it in a manner that allows us to bring on some of that youth. COYS 🤍

[@weswheel4834]

And now in '87, with David Pleat's Eleven... :(

[@michaelmoore1637]

As you say it’s a game Spurs should win comfortably. However be warned Coventry have a couple of speed merchants up front who might take advantage of a second string back line. Bassette looks like he will be a handful.

[@almorgan68]

As we know championship sides can upset Premier league sides

[@denisewilson9783]

I don’t think Ange will mess around, does anyone think he’ll blood his youngens and give them a good let out?

[@everyoneknowsadave3580]

we’re looking forward to hosting you at the CBS … the SBA is going to be in fine voice … and whatever the result it’s gonna be game !! … PUSB

[@tajay655]

Hope you guys get promoted this season

[@everyoneknowsadave3580]

@@tajay655 … Me too.., I was ambitiously forecasting automatic promotion preseason … still getting regularly trolled for that!! 😂 .. but even though they’ve had a slow start it’s early and there’s still time for Covs very talented team to get it together… and if they do watch out, we may be playing each other more often next year ! 😁 👍🩵🩵

[@royprice6742]

Cheers Chris. COYS. First this evening

[@ShelfsideOllie]

“Spurs should get the job done here”… where have I heard that before Chris? 😂😂 COYS

[@TheRealist2024]

Hopefully Ange doesn't put out a weak team like he did last season, after what Coventry did to Man Utd in the FA Cup they shouldn't be taken lightly, a full strength team and blow them away, i want a trophy this season.

[@workhard701]

Last season Ange thought that the reserve team deserved a chance to fight their place in the first team but then he realised how weak we actually were

[@jacklegros6614]

Ange made a bog mistake ​@@workhard701

[@RichardHealyCoffey]

My very first game in Wembley was 1981 it was the replay when we beat man City in the replay 3 to 2 and again in 1982 when we won the fa cup again it was when the new west stand opened and ill never forget us when we won the EUFA Cup what a game we beat Anderlecth on penalty shoot out with Keith burkinshaw ,,last game as our manager also in 1987 when we lost out to Coventry City sad day and again we beat forest in 1991great day aswell and also in 1999 we beat Leicester City,,,, in our rebuilt stadium 1,to 0 the win over Chelsea in 2008 I Wembley stadium brilliant day then I was there when we beat Chelsea in 2008 at the new Wembley rebit Wembley it was a fantastic day never forger it unfortunately that was to be our last thropie we won the leauge Cup but my favourite game ever was against man City I still remember the supporters had flags the atmosphere that day was the best I've ever seen and will never forger it I was only 12 back then I realy believe that we will lift the FA cup this season its well over due plus our squad have a season under there belts and they will click this season I just no it we have a great chance of lifting the EL aswell this season we will surprise a lot especially the European teams this season with the way we play there's some very good teams in pot 1 si this season im hoping for us to lift the FA cup and the EL not to sure about the leauge cup away to Newcastle and then away to Coventry big ask if we can get trough them 2 games without injuries we'll you never no and I believe we will finish 3th in the leauge COYS Bring back the successful times of the eighties

[@stephenomenal29]

Never had a easy round 1 draws…sad😢

[@gabrielpyh5608]

Coventry will cause an upset if Spurs decides to spoon around.

[@michaelmoore1637]

Sky blues will be ready. It should be a great atmosphere. I hope Ange lets Madders play on his old stomping ground.

[@bryanlehuray2968]

We always seem to get Coventry in one of the cups

[@MaryMagee-ou9df]

COYSSSSSSSSSSSS!

[@almorgan68]

We should never underestimate championship sides

[@stevecassidy3260]

Let's be realistic. We're not going to win the league and even 4th is probably a massive ask the way Chelsea are buying up everybody. Let's go full tilt in the cups. If we win the Europa we get in the champions League anyway. And come on, ANY silverware would put a smile on my face.

[@paulwalter2715]

Coventry City will not be easy.

[@edizahmet3266]

We’re playing Coventry straight after the Arsenal game ffs. Ange’s is gonna put a weak team out just watch. He’s gonna lie to us all when he says that he usually wins trophies in his second season. I’m not sure if he’s actually gonna put a strong team out because it’s basically straight after the Arsenal game. Why are we always playing away in cup competitions and Chelski are always playing at home. They fucking got Barrow ffs.

[@Punslinger1005]

That’s not a bad draw. It’s a potential banana skin, but it’s not Man City. Let’s go!!!

[@LydiaAmiAmeniko]

When will we play
