Capital One Cup semi-finals: Everton host City, Liverpool to face Stoke

“It was the first draw that I saw live, but it’s interesting “one, two, three, four” in a row – are you sure?” he said with a smirk on Sky Sports 1. “I was appointed by another group of people so when that group changed, if I’m honest, it was only a matter of time before I got replaced”. I expect CFG to look into the prospect of an academy in China in the fairly short-term future.

City signed Bony in January 2015, but Pellegrini suggested they might not do so again in the forthcoming transfer window. In 2003 he joined his first club – Independiente. I think Arsenal have the same problem.

The final takes place at Wembley on Sunday, February 28.

It’ll be interesting to see how the Potters get on through this period, and every fans’ expectations will be different, but it’s safe to say that Hughes and his side will give it a good go.

Manchsester city striker Sergio Aguero has revealed that he is going to leave Manchester City to re-join Independiente.

These are the sort of challenges that you should relish mind, and the team certainly has enough talent to pick up a healthy number of points from these games. “He’s certainly one of the best in the world in my view”. Peter Crouch is a doubt for Stoke after suffering a hamstring injury in midweek, but Mame Biram Diouf is set to return after missing the cup game to attend the birth of his child. The tie was wrapped up with 15 minutes to play when Phil Bardsley smashed home a low free kick with Stoke reaching their first League Cup semi-final since they won the trophy in 1972.

“You have to play so many games, especially when you continue in the Capital One and we also start the FA Cup”.

‘We are always trying to do it but it is not easy because there are a lot of clubs, five or six, that can do it also. “We try to be a big club and to think as a big club, so of course it can be an option but we are not thinking about that”.

Leicester City are behind Manchester City, but ahead of Manchester United and Arsenal in the Premier League table at the moment.

City’s top scorer Sergio Aguero is likely to miss Saturday’s game with a foot injury, but Pellegrini is hopeful the striker will be fit to face Borussia Moenchengladbach in the Champions League on Tuesday.
