Haven't seen a match thread for tomorrow so I thought I'd get the ball rolling.

I would imagine we'll see some rotation again and hopefully another good performance. Maybe something like:

Wilson
KKH Thomas Bidwell Brau
Allen Andrews
Torp
Raphael Simms EMC
​
Although I wonder if we might play the 442 variation again? If Lati, Eccles or sheaf are close to fitness maybe they get a run out.

It would be good to be able to rest Torp and EMC as well to be honest, but that shows that we probably do need a couple more in for squad depth.

First team on, 5-0 at half time, first team off. Easy.

Think it’ll be this but Bidwell for Kitching and they do the half time swap again. If the game allows I’d like to see Obikwu and Perry get some time. No idea how seriously Millwall take this.

I've never been arsed about the league cup and probably never will be. Love the FA cup but this is just a distraction, like the the EFL trophy was. I spose a good run means some extra money but I wouldn't be bothered if we got knocked out. Blood some younguns in tomorrow I say

Hmmm...not so bothered by the League Cup, but after two fantastic performances and 12 goals, wouldn't it be brilliant to keep the momentum going.

Also, if we do get beaten, you all just know this place will go into meltdown again.

Three wins on the bounce would be fabulous

Think less of rotation this time possibly as it's very tough away game

Wilson in at GK
Bidwell OR Brau at LB
KKH at RB
Simms for Wright

How long have you been on SBT, again?

It will be if we are well beaten and/or don't play well.

Agree with this. After this and Oxford it’s Norwich (who we never do well against), Leicester Birmingham. Would be great to go into those having won a few on the trot convincingly

Complete team change for this. This is where the squad must be utilised to good effect. Don't care for this mickey mouse competition, it always gets in the way of what we should be focused on. Those playing need to make a statement for a first 11 starting place. I also expect Milwall will be all change too.

I'd change it up for this game

Wilson
KKH Thomas/Kitching* Bidwell Brau
Andrews Torp/Rudoni* Allen
Raphael Simms EMC

Rushworth, Thomas/Kitching*, MvE, Perry, Batanwi, Grimes, Torp/Rudoni* Obikwu, Wright

*each to play one half.

Then gives options to either bring on the first teamers if we need to or give the youngsters some minutes if we don't.

Think Wright needs game time to get to full sharpness as well, I might be tempted to play him wide left for a half

We’ve got the international break , I think after Oxford , so a strong side to start this game wouldn’t hurt , with replacements made 2nd half …….let’s keep this momentum going

If EMC is still carrying a knock I would rest him .
Give minutes to Simms, Andrews , Brau ,KKH and Bidwell . If Eccles is close to starting would line to see him get half hour

I fucking hate these international breaks, they always seem to break up our momentum, not to mention being bloody boring.

Last time we had a free weekend I had to resort to talking to the Mrs, turns out she doesn't work at Woolworths anymore!

We’ll probably play 4-4-2 again as we did v Luton. In fact, the team will probably be v similar to that lineup.
