    Something like this maybe. Difficult to call because we have no idea how 'seriously' Pochettino will take it or who according to the medical staff needs a rest. We could probably do with a mixture of first team, squad and youth players. But what mix is hard to pin down.

    What position does Reed play?

    Bench: Gazza, Lovren, Fox, JRod, Lambert, Reed, Rowe

    How many loan players have we used in the last two or three years? There's probably a good reason why we don't take them on yet you're happy to risk regular team players on that basis?

    I'd rest Morgan chambers lambert and cork personally.

    I think;

    Davis
    Clyne Fonte Yoshida Fox
    Davis JWP
    Ramirez Reed Rodriguez
    Gallagher

    With the big hitters on the bench

    Reed is a CM, we have too many good ones!

    Probably will be, he's been compared to Paul Scholes (partly down to his hair!).

    Less than 6,000 tickets sold, apparently.

    Oh dear. Another epic fail by the club in cup ticketing prices then.

    I have only paid £15 to watch this game. That is good value for money.

    Yes but for most people it's £20. I don't want to pay £20 to watch the reserve side. Now, if Pochettino came out and said he was putting a first team out, more people would go to the game.

    Davis

    Clyne Fonte Yoshida Fox

    Cork Schneiderlin

    Ward-Prowse Ramirez Read

    Lambert

    Subs: Gazza, Chambers, Lovren, Davis, Rowe, Gallagher, Rodriguez

    I'd be tempted to give Gallagher a whole half, that kid looks useful. I wouldn't be surprised if he forced his way in quicker than expected......might even save us £12m.

    I think we'd have seen a lot more of him, but he's had his injury problems again.

    Jordan Turnbull has been training too.

    Well, I'm not going, so your defintion suggests that I must be "plastic". Snob.

    I've been to too many of the damned things. And what happens? I get to watch them with a crowd getting on the back of Guly, Fox and [insert hate figure here - Hoover on Saturday, I guess] because the second string aren't playing as well the first team. I end up HATING the crowd around me with a vengeance, so it's a pretty unhappy experience for me. I nearly came to blows with someone at the Bristol game (argument was about whether Guly really was "the worst f-ing footballer [he'd] ever seen"). I decided that paying £20 for an evening I disliked intensely was madness.

    If not wasting my money to be unhappy makes me plastic, I'll live with it.

    Disagree. Team played 4 games in 11 days, mix it up.


    On another note. Dani Osvaldo is back in full training and the club seem to be highlighting it on Twitter.

    Ease him back in and then bring Gallagher on? Gallagher to start with Ossie on the bench? Or neither?
