Fitness and injury apart, you wont be that far out. Our cup team is getting stronger as well now. Brownie watch out. Lol.

Team selection gets even more difficult if Brucey frees up another loan spot to bring in a winger or an attacking midfielder. Exciting to be in a position where the first 11 when fit doesn't pick itself. Meyler, Boyd, Quinn, Sagbo, Rosie, Macca won't be content just warming the bench either.
I like that line up, with Boyd or Sagbo in the Aluko spot until he is fit, with Boyd or Quinn also a replacement for Brady if his hernia is still acting up.
