handworth52 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Rest most of players what will play next Tues at Millwall. Give Lees abdi and a few of u23s a game , dont see point in risking players in this game , fa cup sadly aint important any more , and there aint hardly any financial gains unless we had man u away etc .even though Id luv that smirk wiping off the clown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryPlopper Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Players should need no giddy up for this match. Throw a few unknowns into the equation and I could foresee a slightly ignorant CC returning home. He will put out a lesser Swansea side. It's just a question of if those "lesser" players for Swansea have bite or not, and how our players want to strike a response to either CC not playing them, or CC playing them when he shouldn't have (such as Lees if he plays) Saturday will be about if our players big up or not, because on paper we get a hiding. Thankfully football is played on grass, not on paper. Lets give it a bloody good go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendaryswan Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Id rest the side that played last night,much as I love the cup,we need wins in the league and the squads too depleted to gamble,we need 50 points minimum.and the quicker the better. The big game for me is Millwall away,and lets keep the same 11 and get a run going,let Carlos have his day,after all hes not had many wins at S6 this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 If I was Mr Chansiri I’d be having a word and asking him to do us a favour as a thank you for letting him go to Swansea on the cheap Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortonwoodseatslives Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 How about playing two full backs, three half backs, two wingers, two inside forwards and a centre forward (oh! and a goalie), That should fool CC (as well as most of the opposing players -, and the fans). It used to work! I know who I would put in each position, but I'll leave that for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 have always said if I had the choice of winning a cup game or 3 points in the following league game i'd go for the latter ........i'm wavering a bit though on this one . 1 hour ago, Fuzzy logics said: Wildsmith Fred Lees Thorniley Hunt Boyd Joey Wallace Stobbs Joao Rhodes stobbs & thorniley isn't a good idea mate ,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Snooty Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Genuinly have no idea what Jos will do for this one. On the one hand rest players in our small available pool. Or keep with them and give them chance to build on Tuesday with the worry of points at stake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kagoshimaowl Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'd rest Loovens if Lees is fit. Hunt looked knackered too. Dawson Palmer Lees Venancio Pudil Boyd Pelupessy Jones Reach Rhodes Joao Subs: Wildsmith ( rested), Hunt, Loovens, Fox, Wallace (if fit), Butterfield, Nuhiu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kagoshimaowl Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'm assuming Wallace is injured right?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full fathom five Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) Jos was brave in his team selection against a top side in Derby and it paid dividends, however i would be surprised if he played Hunt, Boyd and possibly Rhodes who always looks knackered plus Clare is cup tied. So i think Jos will go with a more conservative approach on Saturday with Fox coming in for Boyd, Palmer for Hunt, Nuhiu for Rhodes and Jones or Wallace for Clare. I hope im wrong as it was our willingness to attack with purpose that earnt us the win on Tuesday and i feel the addition of Fox and Jones especially would blunt this threat. A bench mark has been set on Tuesday that we need to aspire to. Like i say i hope im wrong and we go about our buisness as we did on Tuesday against Derby and not as we did last Saturday against Barnsley.

Hitcat Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Damn shame Clare can't play. I can't think of anyone else who has his attributes in midfield. Quick and skilful and willing to take on the opposition defence. Him, Reach and Joao make quite the 3 musketeers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 9 points clear of the bottom 3 and won't make the play offs so what have we got to lose by playing our strongest side , is there any wonder why the crowds have dwindled in the fa cup ? Unless the FA do something to make it more appealing for the bigger clubs like a place in the champions league nothing will change I'm afraid and it's been like this for years . I'm in two minds whether to go or not Saturday because of the above but If I knew we would be putting out our strongest team against a decent Swansea side and make s game of it , id go, I would feel cheated if we just rested a load for Tuesday at Millwall, I'd rather get to the Quarter finals than beat them but sadly in this age of it all being about money I'll sadly be in the minority.

Id love nothing more than to beat Swansea ,even though they were bottom they have some cracking players and even if we risked our 1st choice available 11 they probably would be too good 4us. its looking like a very poor crowd at the min ,I doubt there will be 15-16000 even at those cheap prices ,if we were asking £40 I doubt 5k would turn up. I used to love the fa cup but its been ruined . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
