Stephens - 1st team
Propper - 1st team
Kayal - Injured
Sidwell - Injured
Molumby - As per U23 thread yesterday, injured
Towell - On loan
Ince - On loan
Norwood - On loan
So who is left to play in the middle next Tuesday?
Rosenoir?
He'll be at LB covering the injured Bong and then I imagine Schelotto at RB
Maenpaa / Krul
Schelotto
Hunemeier
Goldson
Rosenior
Skalak
Murphy
Brown
Alzate
The 2 central mids will be U23 surely ?
It'll be Molumby and A N Other
What if Molumby is still injured?
No.Good point. Well made.
A N Other and A N Other it is then. Might it be worth risking at least one of Stephens or Propper?
We are actually allowed to play first team players in the cup, aren't we?
Arn't you normally championing giving youth players a chance ?We are actually allowed to play first team players in the cup, aren't we?

Yes, I suppose 2 U23 central midfielders at once is a little ambitious.Yes, fine by me - Molumbey (if fit) is in contention, isn't he? I was just responding to the general fears on this thread that without Stephens and Propper we'd have no-one to partner him. If they're so desperately tired that they can hardly drag their weary bones from the changing room to the pitch, they can do 45 minutes each.
And yes, give youth a chance by all means - yes please - but not too many at a time! Two untried youngster in the centre of midfield would be pushing it a bit.
