"Jose substitution was precautionary, tight hamstring & dropping too deep. Hammond misses Palace on Tuesday. Bart & De Ridder start #saintsfc"
I don't think it will be quite so many changes. I'd go something more like... Bart Butterfield Martin Josvield Harding(if fit?/Dickson) Holmes Morgan Cork Forte SdR Lambert Subs: Kelvin, Guly, Chappers, the rest of the gang.
NA says Martin, SdR and Bart will play..no surprises there. Also says Fonte had a tight hamstring and couldn't sprint on Saturday, so taking him off was precautionary.

I want a strong team, perhaps with players like Holmes, Forte, Bart and Martin in the mix. Not only because I am going and don't want to see us dicked, but also because it's a chance to get to the Quarters
Unusual experience having 1st v 2nd consecutively at St Mary's. West Ham was a massive game and this one is an equally big challenge.
Derby and West Ham were right behind us and neither could beat us, so need to take points off Boro. Even if we couldn't get all the points off Derby and Reading..we stopped them catching up on us.
to all those saying harlee dean to play, hes injured - just had a foot operation according to twitter so rule him out
Even though it is the carling cup it is a very winnable fixture so i would go for a stronger team than in the previous round. Bart Butterfield Martin Jos Harding De Ridder Schneiderlin Cork Holmes Lambert Barnard (if fit) /Guly Subs: Davis, Dickson, Fonte, Lallana (if fit)/Chaplow Forte/Guly/
