I think we'll make a fair few changes. McFadz to come in as the experienced head and give Kelly the night off. I'd also be tempted to try something a bit different with O'Hare. Hiwula and Jobello have been very quiet in recent games so I wonder if O'Hare might be able able to play one of those role? I'm not sure whether to play Jobello to try and get his confidence up though.

Big game on Saturday. The 1st team should be nowhere near it!

Do you still have to start with five players who were in the previous match day squad?

It would be almost impossible for us not to do that wouldn’t it ?.
Wilson, Biamou, kastaneer, McFaz and Watson will all likely start and they were all subs yesterday

Expect it will be:
Wilson
Watson- Williams-Mcfadzean-Mccallum
-------eccles
Westbrooke-burroughs
Wakefield-Baka-/biamou-walters
I expect Westbrooke to play simple because O'Hare will likely start on saturday

I'd give Biamou a run out up front

Let's take the fine and play the team that suits the bigger game Saturday.

Kastaneer and Max have to play to help get match fitness. If Westbrooke is to be replaced by O'Hara, I agree - let him play in this.

That won't happen - we can't afford to throw money away.

I was being flippant definatily as weak a team as possible at this stage and see where we go. For me this trophy should only get out first team if Wembley is in sight so the semi finals. My only caveat to that is if we play Sunderland.

Think it will be as follows.
Wilson
McCallum
MacFadzean
Williams
Dabo
O'Hare
Eccles
Kelly
Biamou
Kastaneer
Baka
Wilson
McCallum
MacFadzean
Williams

Baka

There's no way Kelly is going to play and based on us keeping the same formation Baka and Biamou both won't start.

I'd quite like to see Dabo start in this one, bring his confidence back up a bit after the Oxford game as one of our strongest starters. I'd then play a mix of our subs/youth with a couple of first teamers, maybe start O'Hare to add a bit of a lively cat amongst the pigeons. Would be nice to boost confidence of a few with a goal or two. Would be good also to see Biamou start, dependant on fitness/injury maybe even Allen/Jones on the bench to appear for the last ten. Personally I'd have

----Eccles-----O'Hare-----Burroughs----
Jobello----------Biamou----------Kastaneer
Subs:
Billson
Hyam

Hoping that the following start: Kastaneer, Max, either Ngandu or Burroughs (or both but doubt it), Williams, Eccles, Bapaga and Wakefield.

You really think that 10 and a half months after tearing his ACL for the second time, Jodi Jones will be on the bench?

In truth I'd lost touch with how long it had been and wasnt sure how far away he was from being fit

wouldn't surprise me if he rested Kelly

I'd definitely give McCallum a rest for this game (mentally more than anything so he's fresh for the weekend) and give Watson an opportunity to settle in and let MR have a look at him. Which I'd have LB and which RB not sure though
Sky_Blue_Dreamer

I agree with the overall assessment sadly but I think it'll be more a mental than physical thing. You could see how tentative he was last time so after a second you could see him not wanting to take on his man in case he gets clattered or put a foot in for fear of injury.
I hope I'm wrong but I think this season most we'll probably see of him is U23 to improve his physical and mental fitness.

At least if/when JJ comes back, he can have a flat pitch to try and twist and turn on. Let's hope it's not a twist followed by a shout!

Anyone planning on going? Do you know what block people will sit in for these games? The attendance will likely be ~1k so want to make sure I'm sitting with some people.

The Watford game possibly cost us 2 points Saturday, Blackpool will be a far sterner test than Oxford.

I want us to progress and do well because we have quite a few players to give games to who you wouldn’t want playing in the league just yet but could break through somewhat soon.
I also want to be able to watch as many games as possible on iFollow to make up for the 1.5 games that were stolen from me.
But most of all, I want us to do well regardless of what competition we’re in.

Hate comments like this - what do you know about it? He has got every chance of recovering from this injury, physically and mentally
