Maybe a bit of rotation.
Mama in goal.
Ramsay, Gomez, VVD, Robbo
Szoboszlai, Jones, Nyoni
Frimpong, Chiesa, Rio.
Nice distraction from the PL, a decent performance and into the fourth round.
Win the CL, win this, 4th in the PL…ok season.

Dom has played a lot of games so I don’t know about him otherwise that’s the team I’d go with, with some names on the bench.

Field a proper team, IMO this will be the only realistic chance to win a trophy this season.
No idea who this is. No VAR this round.
Referee: Farai Hallam
Assistant Referees: Alistair Nelson & Hristo Karaivanov
Fourth Official: Ruebyn Ricardo

We’ll see what we can field.
Obviously due to circumstances, I’d like us to try and win this competition. “Try” should be a default actually, but with how our season is going, even more now.
Still, gotta be careful with some individuals. I personally wouldn’t like to see Frimpong start, he had a tough game yesterday being our outlet on transitions and nearly injured himself.
Could Lucky get a start?
I think Szobo is actually someone who can go again, because he has the capacity and he had a rest recently with that suspension.
Fair comment. Maybe let MacAllister continue from last night, he was a lot better to be fair.

I saw an article with him a while ago about encouraging ethnic minority refs to enter the game. Seemed like a decent chap based on that.

Seems to have played the game at some time in his youth too.

Mac Allister and Szobozslai to get 45 each.
Not keen on seeing anyone from Thursday play to be honest

I’d give Ekikte more rest, rest the full starting team. Macca or Jones depending on who starts then next game.
Give a few young lads a game alongside filling the bench.
Edit: I see Will Wright and Lucky have started against Norwich u21s today so likely won’t start. No sign of Ramsey, Nyoni or Rio on that squad so imagine they’ll start.

Is Wright even fit?
Returned a few weeks back, scored 5 against a Spurs youth side too!

The most important match of the season.
We either win it or lose it, I think our opinions on which will be split.
Rotation
Fully rotate, hope it ain’t a repeat of Plymouth

We actually left the first choice players at home with that.

Would not be surprise if he does that again.

Realistically the only chance we have of silverware this season. Also need to keep building confidence so I’d be going relatively strong.

Mix of youth and experience on the bench but leave Ekitike, Szobo and Grav home/on the bench if you can.
Go whack em out of site. Get some goals flowing and confidence up.

Surely, we should scoring at least 1 against this lot???
We might make it into the next round somehow but as soon as we play a PL team (away from home) in one of the next rounds we will crash out.
So I’m not bothered about this as long as Slot is here.
