[Albion] Cup team

[GT49er]

————————Steele———————
————-Turns—Duffy—Burn————
Groß——-Moder——Alzate——March
————————Richards—————-
———Welbeck—————Locadia——

Similar to this but:
Duffy - Burn - Roberts back three for me (unless Roberts (not in the squad today) is off out on loan, in which case as you were).

Mwepu instead of Gross - he still needs to be acclimatising to English football, so keep him playing at every opportunity.

Mac Allister in for Richards - another one who needs to establish his regular starting place; move Richards up alongside Welbeck, and make sure Locadia's got his headphones blastibg away somewhere and nobody's told him the's a match on!

We have reluctantly supported manager fielding weak team in past but with 27 points in bag no excuse not to give it a go this season.

Can’t see Webster featuring - he was struggling at the end of todays game

Was that through fatigue or a knock?

With WBA challenging for promotion it’ll be interesting to see what team they start with…certainly won’t be their number one goalie..he got sent off today.

Seemed to imply on the commentary it was a knock.

And also isn’t David Button WBAs back up keeper ?

Can't really see him fielding in the starting 11 anyone that he might be using against Palace. WBA will be playing a weakened team as their priority is promotion. If we get through and get another lower league team in rnd 4 I suspect we will do the same. By that time we might well have another couple of wins under the belt so start taking it seriously from Rnd 5.

Maupay, Welbeck and Trossard ready to come on if we find we need a goal. Webby, Veltman, Cucc and Lamptey at home in the warm having a nice cup of tea

Not impossible we have other options by then. We may have recalled a loan, or who knows, may have signed a first team player

This for me as well. I don't know why some people are picking BDB as he is our Dunk replacement and needs a rest ahead of Palarse.
Mwepu could also do with a break as he comes over to me as a cross between brilliance and stupidity, as seen by his killer passes for goals and lazy free kicks and penalties, as seen today.

 

[The Fits]

It’ll be a first team. They’re a good a team and we’ve no need to pick the stiffs. Only player I don’t expect to see is Lamptey and possibly Lallana.

 

[Milano]

We are on TWENTY SEVEN points after just NINETEEN games, if we can’t have a proper go at the FA cup now then don’t bother entering it ever again.
Stop ****ing about - Sanchez starts, so does Lamptey, Webster and Welbeck. The only player I’d rest is Cuccella but only because I think he’s the only player we don’t really have EPL cover for.

 

[Perkino]

Several decent players in the squad who will get some minutes and an ideal time to field players like Roberts & Richards. I'm expecting most of today's bench to start plus the odd but of experience too

Think it’s a good balance between youth and experience and gives an opportunity for some of the U23 boys on the bench

Is that starting 11 just to give WBA a chance? Play our strongest team to try to win the game, then take each round as it comes, we’ll never be in a better position to have a go at a cup, unless we break into the top 6 next season……

99% certainty it won’t be a first team.

Possibly, maybe bring in Veltman, think we should rest lamptey for sure though, I think that second XI will be more than enough.

 

[Rambo]

Next year would be a good year to win the cup. 40th anniversary of our last appearance in the final?

 

[Seagull1989]

We’ve got 27 points and I reckon 9 more points to ensure safety.

Really hope Potter doesn’t field a weak team, WBA will be a hard game. Give us a cup run GP!
