    He used to be a left back, but we transformed him into an attacking central midfielder ;)

    Looks a strongish team with some potentially big weaknesses. Not sure about Fox at CB or Reeves at CM (unless it's a diamond? but with wingers? surely not...), would have started with Jaidi and Ward-Prowse personally. Bench is quite weak, even by our recent standards! Very much a bench of players to bring on if we're winning...

    Going by Sibley's tweet the line-up is 442 with Puncheon on the right and De Ridder on the left, will be interesting to see if they swap around and how well it works.

    All in all, looks like quite an experimental team. Should learn a fair bit whatever the result.

    He was a left back but I think he's been converted into an attacking midfielder. He seems to play in the hole behind the striker for the under-21's these days

    Think he probably transformed himself when he realised how many other left-backs we have!

    Jaidi on the bench......, wonder how bad Fonte's injury is.

    It's good that he's back but I wouldn't expect anything too quickly, he's just had a serious injury. Hope to be proved wrong though!

    I hope he has a good game to boost his confidence. After bringing in Lee i'm sure Barnard will want to prove he is still in the picture

    Millwall appear to have forgotten that you can seven, rather than five, subs your bench in the FA Cup. (Although it's worth pointing out that one of their five subs is N'Guessan)

    Been trying to put a few quid on Punch for 1st goal and his name isn't anywhere. Do the bookies know something we don't?

    Another let off for Saints, as a Millwall player misses a sitter.

    Should be 2 or 3-0 already, not looking good.

    I hope the boos when Puncheon gets the ball are coming from Millwall fans and not Saints ones.
