Yep it's a good draw. Would have preferred an away draw where we could take 5000 plus fans to a ground... When was the last time we got an away draw in the FA Cup or League Cup not including Birmingham away in the replay?
I think it's fair to say they'll be weakening their squad and with the injuries permitting we have a good chance. With City and United out the cup that opens up the competition completely. This is a cup we should be looking to win.
No clue mate, Birmingham doesn't count in my book as it's not originally an away draw. Preston away maybe? Or Coventry?
I didn't hear what your team was but didn't Fletcher, Rooney and Cleverly all play?? (all internationals - so hardly kids). Were the rest youth players then? Can't see Fergie playing just kids at SB. Our team will be a mix of first team, youth and benchers.
the only first choice playing last night were the ones coming back from injury like Fletcher Rooney and anderson.
Just seen the team. Baring the defence, that could have been a first team. De Gea, Anderson, Fletcher, Rooney, Hernandez, Welbeck and Cleverly are all internationals. Playing the kids means playing players who spend most of the time playing for youth or reserve sides.
