Didn't know that, was expecting him back at the end of the month. Swap him for Figueroa in the team above.
Dunno but let's play a strong team. Don't want to **** around and rest too many.
Quinn and Faye need a game and Saggy needs a goal. So them for starters.
Henderson had an absolute mare when he came on against Huddersfield. I'd like him to get the chance to show that was just a blip.

I think the team picks itself with the ineligible players we have.
Harper
McShane Faye Bruce
Rosenior Meyler Quinn Koren Boyd
Fryatt Sagbo
McGregor Davies Figueroa Elmo Henderson Fletcher J-Martin.
That's all we've got available.

I'd rest Figueroa and only bring Koren on as a late sub. Bruce should go 3-5-2 against an inferior team and put pressure on early. Let Rosenior and Elmo both start in mid-field with Elmo in a more attacking role. I'd go

I think Elmo would benefit from a rest Faye needs some game time but would be wary of injury because he could be critical in the coming few weeks. Boyd needs an hour to "top him up" so to speak as he has shown promise as a sub in the league but short of actual game time. But apart from that peripheral players should be the go and Sagbo to hopefully boost his tally.

IMO, It should be as close to the Middlesboro 3rd round starting team as possible who played very well. BUT,, BIG BUT, we need both Rosie and Figgy to be fit and fresh for the tuesday night game @ Palace against Bolasie and Puncheon who are the main threat to us in the Palace team. So my team would include some of the kids.
Harper
Topliss McShane Faye Clappison
Jahtaldo-Martin Meyler Quinn Boyd
Fryatt Sagbo
subs:- McGregor - Rosenior - Koren - Elmohamady - Henderson - Wilson - Fletcher
Hopefully we would be able to use the 3 lads and not need to use any of our main players off the bench.
Wiith Danny Graham not allowed to play and the crazy situation of allowing Prozzy to go before this game we have NO striker options available. But if Graham can play then start him instead of Sagbo who should drop to the bench for say Fletcher.

I wouldn't be surprised if he gave Jelavic and Long (if fit) a run as they need some match fitness. The other question is if we make Wembley with our reserves do they play in the final or do the First Team take over? Would this mean they would get a Cup Winners Medal for only playing one game?
