Think both rest players and as we're better, we win again.

Worth giving Torp some minutes here I think.
I think they’re a tough team but lack quality in important areas.
I think if we rest a load of players we may find it slightly too difficult, but I personally want to be concentrating on the league.
Would like to see Torp given 45 mins though.

I was never in doubt yesterday we would win but thought we stuttered a bit until 2-0 then gave that sloppy goal away just to give us all a few palpations when we should have been cruising.
Lot depends on fitness but I think I would change things for this match and start with the two strikers, backed up by Palmer behind, give their defence something to think about from kick-off, will Robins start Torp ? good game to start him a good old English cup-tie, apparently he’s been flying in training so I don’t doubt his fitness and to get match fit you need to play matches.

I don't think we should change too much. Altho I do expect rotation. It's a Friday game so extra days rest before normal midweek timeslot

Would be a little pointless given the kop is closed for the game. Will be a little odd to be in an empty stadium with a full away end. MK vibes.
You keep beating this drum. Don't get it. He was good against Leicester. Sounds like he was good yesterday. He started the season well enough and has been good since hes been back. He's not the answer on the left of the front three, so if that's what you mean, I get it. Otherwise, confusing take.
Good for how long? 1 half? Never seen him have a good full 90 in the 3 seasons we've had him.
Palmer is definitely ahead of Jamie Allen now, unless CM of course, which he wasn't last season. I think if MR moved one on it would be Allen, again, I don't think that would have been the case last season.

Want to progress. Really hoping we’ve got a wide forward in for this. Saka needs a rest and I’d rather play Palmer as a ten.
This is his second season. MR seems to think he's good enough to start games. Think he's a big part of the squad.
Decent squad player, but not consistent enough on the left or in a 10, and can't play as a 6 or 8.
OK, but there's a gap between "decent squad player" and "not good enough", no? I think he's good enough for where we are and can do a job as a 10 consistently if his fitness improves. Think MR called out that KP is working on that side of things.
If we're being linked with 8 million pound wingers, I can safely assume that Palmer is below the standard we're aiming for. I'd be shocked if he's offered a new deal.
Speaking to a Wednesday fan before the game yesterday, he said he’d obviously rather the points than the 5th round. Which I do too. It’s gonna be shit when we eventually lose but I wouldn’t mind awfully if this is the game we do lose. Think we’ll go with a weakened line up. Though I still think we’ll win.
Don’t think Doug would be happy if we went full “throw some U21s in”.
League is more important and we have Bristol C 4 days later. Ring in the changes for this match and try to squeeze through to the next round.
It's important game. If we win we could be in for recruitment decision making changing money possibly.
Every penny helps us
but we're talking about here and now aren't we? He's starting games for a form team in this league. I feel he's good enough for now. If you don't, fair enough.
This shouldn't be underestimated. A big home tie, with TV and prize money could be worth up to 750K. That's probably the equivalent of 2.5K+ season ticket holders.
Genuinely interested to see how Robins approaches this one. Bristol will have played 5 matches in 18 days when they face us, and have got Leeds 3 days later. They keep putting out their strongest team, and you'd think they'll be struggling fitness wise by the time they come to Coventry. Wonder if it will impact Robins selection for the cup.
