Except for the seasons Liverpool won it and then half the school claimed otherwise. I'm going. Looking forward to it, more so if the kids are given a chance in midfield. Apologies, it was duncanmckenzieismagic who said he wasn't going, my mistake. I've always called it the Mickey Mouse Cup in recent years, but only because we've never won it if I'm honest. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I really like the line-up even it might be a little on the weak side. I don't like Stek starting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 It's also strange to see Sandro starting considering he's supposedly being shipped out tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Was hoping to see Barnard. He looked like he needed some game time when he came on the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghoat Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 5 attacking-type players in the lineup. Wish we knew why no Brenard and why Lookman really isn'tt in 18 (deal being done, refused, manager choice etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elston Gunnn Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I’ll guess 4-2-3-1. Stekelenburg Kenny Holgate Zouma Digne Dowell Davies Sandro Sigurdsson DCL Niasse Surprised no Lookman. Something going on, but it could be several different somethings. Also surprised to see Schneiderlin in the team at all. I thought his injury was a little longer term. I’m not a big fan of his, but Silva probably is, and it’s good he’s recovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One vote but this year at least I'd rather start squad depth over kids. To me kids are u23s/u18s making debuts with no football league experience. Davies/beni/kenny/galloway/browning/pennington/charsley aren't kids. Also no way I'd play Lookman at this point. Stek Kenny Holgate Zouma Digne Davies Dowell Beni DCL Niasse Bernard Hewelt Feeney Pennington Foulds Charsley Sambou Broadhead Wasn't too far off. Siggy for Beni and Sandro for Bernard. Can someone explain why Sandro is starting when he is being loaned out tmw? Surely someone else could benefit from the 90 mins on offer. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Swindon’s open bus tour of the town when they beat Arsenal the whole town turned out, the problem is that the big clubs are devaluing the competition by the way they treat it and sadly they are doing the same to the FA cup. Don’t agree - look back over the last 12 years and only two teams that aren’t in the perceived top 6 have won it. I think it’s a myth. Top teams often make changes in the early rounds but then why wouldn’t you? If you can beat lower opposition allowing other players in the squad to game time, exposure, recovery injury etc then why wouldn’t you? This ensures that others are given a chance and also to some degree creates harmony. You look at the squads in final / semis and they are much stronger.

Remember that game really well, mudbath, Bobby Gould crying when he equalised late for Arse (I talked to him about that years later when he was manager at Wimbledon and used to come into my mate's wine bar), Don Rogers heroics, underdogs win, perfect!
