Rich Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I'd go with that, too, especially given that I think last night was the first overall performance that has given Howe a reason to change things up. We weren't even that bad, but it was incredibly scrappy in points and we had lost control by the time of the substitutions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Yeah I get the feeling Howe has been waiting for an excuse before bringing Isak and Maxi in. Yesterday I feel was a turning point. I'm fairly sure Longstaff will retain his place but Willock and Wilson are nice options from the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IzzyIsak Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I think he will play the same team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 The break in between both games is massive for us and our squad. It was clear that lots need some recuperation time. I would expect a different performance, for the better at SJP. Outside chance we might even have a new player to sit on the bench or the stands and give people a boost too.

RodneyCisse Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 We’ve got a good buffer that even a goal for them it can be changed by Howe. Hope he jumps 5 mins earlier than he did last night though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IzzyIsak Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) The one goal lead makes it even less likely that ASM will start. At the end of the day, keep another clean sheet and we are at Wembley. Edited January 25, 2023 by IzzyIsak Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Think I'd be tempted to stick with Joe double up for the defensive solidity. Can bring on Maxi later if we need a goal. Definitely start Isak though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Completely disagree with the above. We give them the advantage if we set out with a defensive mindset, allow them to think they will attack more. put them on the back foot, set out to win the game from the off and when we go a goal or two up we make changes for a more robust set up.

We don't play with a defensive mindset, especially not at home, with those players though. It's just a bit more stability when all we need to do is to not concede. I'd definitely bring in ASM for West Ham though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Can’t wait for this. Feels like a big moment in our history is going to be coming. Just hope it’s a class atmosphere throughout. Once the flags and scarves are put away as Local Hero finishes let’s get behind the lads and have the same impact we did for that Arsenal game last season. Southampton will melt.

frankpingel Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 For the sake of everyone's nerves (well mine definitely) I hope we get a 1st half goal. 2 0 going into the 2nd half and we can start the party. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
