The main thing about our style of play is cbs passing.

You have to move the ball and pyu have to be willing to do more than a sideways 10 yarder.

If gomez and Leoni are willing to move it to the opposite full back or go forward we will be OK.

If they are inhibited and just side shuffle it'll kill all momentum

Endo is hardly going to do a gravenberch so we need someone making that body and being that option.

After that I really hope chiesa shows something. He looked fit Friday so wasnt even in the squad (not all can be)

I hope ngumoha really shows something.

I really hope nyoni gets a game.
 
Tbf leave cup is one of those that play the kids reserves and if go out, so be it. But if get through to quarters and semis then great try and win it.

Reserves should be thinking a good game here puts you in the frame for more minutes plus guarantees more game
time in future rounds

Its an opportunity to put a hand up amd an opportunity for the manager to sort the chaff.

I'm convinced endo would be gone if slot could get him gone

Chiesa stayed doing them a favour nearly on the last day then gets the bullet in the cl. His attitude will tell a lot. He turned Italy down to get fitter too.

Gomez is gomez.

Robertson is Robertson

We are at the point nearly that we are looking at the slot squad.

Gks
Rbs
Cb?? Im sure he'd have wanted guehi in and konate to leave
Lb. In progress
6. In progress.
8s. Done.
10. done.
9. Done.
Lw? Gakpo is played, ngumoha seems favoured.
Rw? Stop gap. A future project.

I'm sure another midfielder and then he will be back onto the winger situation.
 
Slot to no one’s surprise confirms team will be rotated tomorrow, mamadashvillo set to get first appearance alongside Leoni abd possibly more game time for Isak.
 
Dreadful draw this was for us. A ground we've played at every season since 12/13 and a tie we've no chance of winning.

Loads of tickets left in away end as well given it's come in a two week period which also has trips to Hull, Sheffield and Derby.

We've gone pretty strong in the first two rounds so expect us to again but your kids will have too much for us anyway.

If Isak plays then the tie will likely be over by the 20-25 minute mark. If he doesn't then I reckon it'll be similar to the recent FA Cup game where we competed well for an hour but still conceded 3 second half goals and lost comfortably.

Can see Isak getting another 45-60 minutes to build up his fitness.

Given the game you have at weekend, seems odd if you’d go full strength?

Oh no, no kids for you mate.

We just stuck them on a bench to rotate now.

You'll get the full might of our bang average reserves and you'll like it.

It won't be 'full strength' as a couple who need minutes will get them but it won't be loads of changes cos we didn't do that in either previous round.

Arguably Still doesn't know his best team yet anyway so hard to know what full strength is.
 
Endo was the best player on the pitch at St Mary's in this competition last season.

Either way we won't be beating up on anyone. We're soft as ****e and very fairweather.

Especially as you just lost 3-1 away to Hull City when you had 70% possession
 
He's tall. We dont know if he is a lump like maguire or a majestic lion like vvd.

Some tall players are very poor at attacking a ball. Knoate isn't great tbh.

Hopefully he is a handful anyway.

But when you are indisjointed seeing rhys williams and Joe gomez as the options. Not good.

Hopefully they will look like they've at least met each other in this game.

He’s certainly physical and likes to put the shoulder in.
