Besides our young guns, these are the other remaining teams in the Carling Cup:

1. Blackburn Rovers
2. Burnley
3. Derby County
4. Manchester United
5. Stoke City
6. Tottenham Hotspur
7. Watford
8. Chelsea

Oh no, Wilkins’ Chelsea are not there, apologies. Now there are at least three teams, which if faced, will be very interesting for us.

Following last season, facing Spurs seems inevitable. In a way, we have to make up for that heavy defeat. However, there are two other teams which I would love to face. The first one is of course Manchester United since when we face them, entertainment is always served. The second one is Stoke City. I so much want to see how the young ones’ grit and determination would cope against the team who caused so much trouble to the uninterested regulars weeks ago.

The draw is tomorrow, at 12:15GMT, that’s 11:15CET.
