    After 12 hours of travelling for yesturdays result I couldn't bare to imagine what it's be like to loose this one too. Think we will struggle but grind out a 2-0 win.

    Going to this one and i dont think it will be any walk over. Its a cup tie that could easily be a dreaded ' banana skin ' for the fancied team. However if Saints play as we know they can then we should be able to do enough to get to the semi final. Really looking forward to it !

    That's what I like about Cups...give you respite from the league. And an achievement to get into the semi-finals.

    If Morgan does not make it, I would like to see JWP playing deeper like he does for England U21s. Davis is more suited to playing the no10 role.

    Or a real shoot out if it's level after 90.

    Hesketh, Cork and Rodriguez out, and Pelle suspended. Otherwise a full squad, with Morgan available.

    Ronald indicates that he will stick to the approach taken in previous rounds i.e few changes, and strong team.

    Forster
    Clyne Fonte Gardos/Maya Targett
    Morgan JWP
    Tadic Davis Mane
    Long

    I'd rest Toby given his recent injury and continue with Targett after very impressive recent performances. Pelle's injury doesn't really give us the luxury of dropping Mane so think the above team is the most likely.
