After beating Newcastle 2-1 this evening, the draw for the round of 16 has handed us the tricky task of facing Chelsea away at Stamford Bridge. The London side thrashed Wolves 6-0 last night, and fielded an extremely strong starting XI in the process.
It’s hard to come away from Stamford Bridge with a win at the best of times, and as we’ll probably opt for youth again this time round, it’ll prove equally difficult to get a result there again, I just hope Sir Alex sticks with his policy of fielding youngsters in this competition whoever the opponent is.
The game will be played during the week commencing the 27th October.
