10k would be a good crowd - have a look at attendances from 'big' clubs in the last round (only Leeds with an outstanding attendance bucked the 'norm')

With there being so many seats to choose from, many will still make a late decision

I was surprised to see how many of you have Lati at RB for tomorrow. He’s rightly won the CB spot from Thomas and is needed there against Norwich on Saturday.

There’s no cover for MvE, but running Lati into the ground and out of his best position isn’t the answer. Both MvE and Lati need a rest.

Wilson
MvE Thomas Kitching Dasilva
Eccles Palmer Allen
EMC Bertie BTA

Dovin, Bidwell, Binks, Lati, Torp, Rudoni, Wright, Saka, Simms

Give the current back-ups a chance to impress and have the first team fresh for Norwich.

Would love to have a proper alternative for MvE to rest him too.

People said that about the Everton game, so we rocked up 20 min before KO, missed the first 15mins and found our seats occupied

Wilson/Collins
MvE/Lati Thomas Kitching Bidwell
Torp/Eccles Allen
Sakamoto Palmer EMC
Thomas-Asante

Give Wilson or Collins, whoever is number two (suspect Wilson) a game, whoever starts at RB is subbed on for the other, start Bidwell to play Dasilva in the league game, wouldn't even consider risking Sheaf for the cup even for minutes, and would bring on Norman "Bertie" Bassette for however minutes depending upon how he's settled into the squad and tactics (wouldn't be against starting him instead of Sakamoto and move BTA out wide)

Why is Norman being called Bertie? Is it an old person thing?

Why would we play Eccles when we have no cover in midfield but rest Lati who we do have cover for?

Also, Eccles has only played RWB before, RB is a bit different.

It's only for men old enough to have hair on their chest.

It's attacking but at home we should look to dominate the match.

I like what I see of Obikwu, but it doesn’t look as if he’s going to get a chance here at the moment, so surely a loan, and possibly Dausch?
