We've been drawn at home to Forest in the 3rd round.

I wonder if we will see the likes of Scott & Tomori feature? maybe something like this...rather difficult to pick a rotated team!

                                          Willy

                      Rudiger       Christensen        Cahill

Tomori                    Fabregas       Scott                        Kenedy

                Pedro                                 Musonda

                                   Michy

Always love the League cup so am delighted we are at home. Will definitely be going. 

Anyone know when the ticket information will be released?

All the sites were writing Carabao Cup. Took me some time to figure out it's the good old League Cup renamed...

Far better when it was the Milk Cup or Rumbelows Cup.

I don't really care, was just surprised is all. It'll always be the League Cup in my mind.

We last met Forest in the FA Cup back in 2007, when goals from Andriy Shevchenko, Didier Drogba and a young John Mikel Obi earned us a 3-0 win.

Hopefully they'll be a poor turn out for this match and the home Qarabag game. Might actually be able to grab myself a few tickets at last
