Sub off Gomez, MacAllister and Gakpo around the hour mark. Give Jota and Nyoni 30 minutes.
Not sure we win with a lineup like that but this is the right game to make a lot of changes.

Iāll be up at 7am despite not really giving a shit. Mind you if itās 1-1 at 80 mins Iāll definitely be caring.

Itās horrible considering this, but we could really do without the extra games.

Itās not horrible, this is the definition of a tin pot cup. We have far bigger fish to fry this season, and we could potentially fuck it up for a bastard Carabao Cup.

Kindly fuck off with the tin pot bullshit.

I donāt think thereās another fanbase on the planet that stresses about fatigue and burn-out as much as we do. Iām as guilty as the next man.
However, providing we havenāt picked up any injuries since Saturday (possibly Robbo) we will only be missing the 3 defenders by Sunday and I donāt think Tsimikas is too far away.
Our fixture list is kind over Chrimbo and New Year and we have an easy FA Cup draw, plus we wont be playing the 2 extra CL matches.
Iād certainly be mixing things up if we reach the Carabao semi-final but I donāt see any reason why we canāt have a good go at it. Injuries at the time will be crucial though.

And letās be honest, these games are the perfect opportunity for those on the fringes to get themselves some good playing time, not to mention the opportunity for the likes of Jota and Chiesa to ease back into playing.
And on that note:
EDIT: Seen from elsewhere (didnāt watch the press conference myself), Jota didnāt train, will not start but may be involved. Chiesa canāt play full 90 because heās been out for so long, but if he trains well today he will get minutes.

Good to hear about Tsimikas.

I like the Carabao cup for this reason. Enjoy seeing the young players get a run out. I donāt see this as not giving it a go. We won the thing with the kids last year!

Full presser there seems Jota isnāt totally fit but sounds like there isnāt massive concern there.
Sounds like we can expect a lot of rotation and youngsters Nallo and Morris might both get games.

Gomez Quansah Nallo Morris
Morton Endo Macca

Something like that? Maybe a few more of the regulars doing a half each.
Hooper is the ref.
