Any sort of hammering today will set the team back irrespective of team selection. With our strongest team we had a good chance, now we have no chance. I feel sorry for those who have made the journey and paid good money
Surprised he's not on the bench. Hang on to 0-0 with 20 mins to go and bring him on. 20 mins wouldn't do him any harm.
Any one know what has happened to Pozuelo? Seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth! Is he injured? If not why not in squad for today?
I wouldn' t expect this kinda line up in our first game of the league cup , little on the 5th round ofthe FA Cup. Un-understandable
Had we put out a strong team and won (possible, if not probable) we'd be in touching distance of Wembley again. Disappointing but maybe the lads will see this as a chance to impress the new manager and go for it. Everton win but you never know..... just hope we don't get battered which will not be good for confidence.
It's a little under strength, but look at the bench? Monk is hoping that the starting team will hold out until half time, where he can bring the team up to some strength without too much drain for Napoli in the week. My only concern is Vazquez up front, glad Jazz is having a run out, but we could be in for a thumping, hope not though!............
Alvaro had a great chance to score, it beggars belief this kid is from Barcelona, oh dear we are already behind 1-0 to everton, going to be a long afternoon!.........
Repercussions toward Laudrup would come fast and furious if he evey fielded a team like this in the 5th round of the FACup.Wonder if Monk had help from the board on this one .
