This was always a horrible draw. Anyone's guess how strong we'll go or who's fit.

If he didn't play a 3 man midfield yesterday when he picked André, Gomes & Lemina he's never going to do it.

I'd go relatively strong with one or two of the 'fringe' players coming in and aim to win it. It might not be anywhere near as important as the league but we just need to win games.



Semedo Mosquera Bueno Aït-Nouri

Sarabia André Gomes Forbs

Strand Larsen Cunha
 
GO said multiple changes for this game
 
It's a mark of how shite Hwang has been that I'd pick PlayStation Face ahead of him for this one. Admittedly it's like listening to Starsailor rather than Toploader.
 
Doherty left back masterclass incoming
 
GON - "We'll make wholesale changes"

Same XI will surely follow!
 
..................... Sa

Lima - Bueno - Toti - RAN

............ Doyle - Andre

Sarabia - Hwang - Rodrigo

................. Larsen


Something like that would be my guess. If RAN doesn't start I think he'll shift Toti over there and play one of Dawson/Mosquera.
 
RAN picked up a knock yesterday. No chance he risks him ahead of the Villa game.
 
My brother is. I will get round to it when I get my own place sorted.

Toti won't play. If he's genuinely fucked off with Doc, I guess he could play Rodrigo at left back. Something like:

Sa
Lima - Santi - Meupiyou - Rodrigo
Doyle - Cundle
Sarabia - Guedes - Forbs
Hwang​

But yes, anyone's guess (and we all know he'll play Doc) - sadly it does sound like we're throwing it.
 
Brighton are likely to make a host of changes as well.

Lets see who is the best at throwing it
 
Rodrigo at left back.........I don't think so !
 
Throwing the match is something I can live with if it means that we go into the weekend in a determined fashion , and make the necessary changes to both personnel ( who we bring on ) and general tactics .
 
Ah, Gaz has ruled out Toti, RAN & Meupiyou.

It's a good job we have plenty of cover in those full back positions. Step forward, Matthew Doherty for another masterclass.

Gaz also said Santi will start "next to a young player".
