With more empty seats visible (mackem-style, although not to that extreme) because people have signed up to the cup scheme but then not been able/bothered to go.

That’s how I’ve deduced this is a bigger game to Saturday. Tbh we should be able to put out a team with a few key players rested and still beat Wimbledon at home. If we can't then we weren't meant to win this competition anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning games by more than one goal allowing us to hand out minutes. We aren’t currently but we could gain form and peak for final. Unlike our last final.

I would expect Gordon and Bruno to be on the bench anyway, they could get a run out if needed - which they shouldn't be. This game is obviously important, but playing a side so far below us in stature gives us the opportunity to let some of our other players start a game. Tha's the whole point in having a strong squad.

If we can't win that fixture without Bruno and Gordon in the side, then that really does indicate that the players haven't stepped up. Thankfully there's zero evidence to indicate we'd be anything other than utterly professional. I don't think there's much of a cautionary tale with Sheff Wed because we should've won that three times over, and you can easily counter-argue with the 3-0 at Old Trafford, where we had a front three of Miggy, Gordon and Ritchie and a CB pairing of Krafth and Dummett. Cup upsets happen but when you're going hell for leather on all fronts, you take any opportunity to protect your most crucial players. Dubravka Tino Krafth Burn Kelly Tonali Longstaff Willock Almiron Osula Murphy Targett for Burn? and swap position with Kelly. No other options for Tonali?

FCB Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 In the spirit of the game having no possible extra time tonight, I ended up talking about when we played Leicester back in 2019 and got knocked out on pens - took me a minute to remember that Barnes started that game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
