    Well, I say that, there is one other scenario where one of our players could be suspended for the final - but I don't want to think about that, for 2 very good reasons.

    If he's torn his hamstring at least 4 but seems to be miid.

    Unless he's a drama queen like Bruno who wanted to ty and produce a Gazzas tears moment

    So you were basing your assessment of Bruno's injury on the fact he was crying?

    No Brunos weight went over the outside of his foot and was consistent with an ankle sprain ie damage to the ligaments. The fact he was stretching meant not his entire body weight went over, but that's definitely how it happens because those ligaments cannot withstand your weight.

    Bruno has been behaving strangley mind ... pretending he's injured, over celebrating tackles and foul play.

    Willock has a slight hamstring injury so unless he was play acting he'll be missing.

    Not consistent though. People roll their ankles everyday and majority are back walking and running and playing their chosen sport within a week or so

    I'm hearing the entire club had eaten laced lasagne and will be out at least 3 weeks

    I think we need to change to a formation with two CM's rather than 3 as we've literally on got two available.

    4-2-3-1

    Pope

    Trippier Schar Botman Burn

    Longstaff Joelinton

    Almiron Isak Gordon

    Wilson

    If Wilson can't play put Isak upfront, put Almiron CAM, Gordon right wing ASM left wing.

    Anderson isn't ready yet.

    I agree though if we can rest Burn I'd be very tempted, he's been **** for a while. I'd consider resting Almiron as well as he's been so off form recently.

    He ummmm....scored in the last match.

    Rather than off form, he just looks a bit knackered, so yeah maybe rest him for one game.

    3 draws on the bounce for you guys. 1 win in 6.

    In all seriousness, what will be the feeling if you don’t win this one? You guys will be favourites given our poor form, but don’t win this one 1 win in 7 and suddenly top 4 looking under threat and poor form going into the final? Will players have an eye on the final next week?

    Know top 4 was prob never the target this season, but now you’re there and favs will it be a disappointment if don’t make it?
