I think Farke will play it smart against posh.
Team I would pick is
………………Klaesons……………..
….Cresswell….Cooper ……. Firpo..
Gruev……....Kamara……..Poveda…
James….Rutter….Bamford…Gnonto..

let’s have a look at Cresswell, Firpo more game time, Bamford and Rutter to get used to the roles, get the rat cup tied then flog the cnut.

Klaesson obviously starts.

I think Cresswell needs game time. We don't have many options at full back with Byram, Ayling, Dallas injured and Gray needing a rest. We sent Spence back and Firpo is **** and injury prone. I think we'd have to go Gray and Firpo at full back. No Struijk and Cooper has a niggle so Cresswell and Rodon should play. It wouldn't suprise me to see Ampadu at the back though.

However, Ampadu needs a rest so midfield has to be Gruev who is growing in to the role. Kamara will have to play as we have nobody else as Shack is injured.

I'd like to see Piroe as a 9 but I think Joseph will get minutes up top with Piroe behind. Gnonto and Anthony wide.

I'd like to see McGurk get an appearance at some point. He had a fantastic start to his season in the 21s and it should be rewarded here.

Think Paddy will start, he needs minutes. Gnonto and Cresswell may only get minutes if they’re not being shipped out. Piroe may play in the 10 role or Poveda. Otherwise have no idea what Farke will do. He can’t give everyone a rest, and we’re short due to injuries.

Hopefully a win for us, but may need penalties.
 
If Hjelde doesn’t get a shout at LCB then he is deffo on his bike, same thing with Lewis Bate at 10 or 6. If Ayling is back on the grass maybe he should go RB with Firpo at LB

Penalties are only if there is still a stalemate after a replay
<ok>
 
By all means give a few fringe players a game but make no mistake, its a game we need to be winning to get that confidence up and get back on a roll of results. It also keeps the fringe players match fit.
Yep, need to get that all important away win, losing to a club a division lower will not help confidence for further away games.

Ok, us to scrape through in normal time then. Just hope it’s a performance and result to provide necessary momentum.

We rarely have great festive results, as Aski (I think) posted elsewhere, so it wasn’t a great surprise(though upsetting) this time around, but we need to get on it over the next couple of months to set us up for the run in.

Thought Hjelde was injured?

Thought Firpo wants out in Jan window too, hence the really good game he had against brum
 
If big Charlie doesn't feature today then he's on his horse and heading out, I still like the cup but we've little real chance of seeing Wembley in reality so I'd put in at least seven fringe players.
Klaesson,ayling,coops, Charlie,firpo,
Mcgurk,gruev,kamara,
Anthony,Joseph,gnonto.
Hope for the win then the possibility of a miracle home draw where we can get a 'big' team to visit our gaff ......Clarke 1-0 ;)
