Despite us having absolutely no chance of winning it, sadly the Champions League is more important than the League Cup. Btw how does rotate = 'throw the game'? Did you miss the Man City game? We have such a thin sqaud atm. Any proper rotation is akin to throwing it. There's probably only 3 rotations we could make that gives us a proper chance of winning.

Troll Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 The Champions League is the biggest competition in club football. Can you imagine how Bruno would feel if we started someone like Miley ahead of him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Tough call this one. Best chance of winning something this season but do we go all in for what might be the toughest of the remaining fixtures? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Think we’ll start as much of a changed side as we can and bring on the big guns if it’s still in the balance with 20/30 mins left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even about the kids being any good, more that our attacking players could probably use a breather especially if the game has gone late on and Eddie has said he won't play people out of position. Five full backs and two keepers is a waste of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timnufc22 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Pope Livramento Lascelles Dummett Targett/Burn Longstaff Bruno Hall Almiron Gordon Joelinton For me, I'd be playing Willock vs Arsenal in place of Joelinton and I'd be weary of him playing two games in a short space of time after a long lay off. I'd also be playing Targett vs Arsenal and after a lack of action for a long time I'd be tempted to play Burn vs Man Utd if it meant Targett was ok to play vs Arsenal.

jack j Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Targett could potentially play both games. He's barely kicked a ball this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandy Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 For all those saying drop all of our key players, did you even want us to enter this competition? Seems like people have thrown in the towel already for this game, so dropping big players gives a ready made excuse for the defeat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 I still don't have a clue how providing the fringe players with an opportunity and/or safeguarding our most frequently-featured players from injury or burnout = wanting to throw the game. Like I said before, it's like no one watched the Man City game. I expect us to go to Old Trafford and be competitive regardless of the individuals selected.
