[Albion] How strong should the team we put out be versus Grimsby?

[The Seagull]

I fully expect them to try and kick us off the pitch. Just hope we don’t pick up too many injuries.

The 1970’s just called they want their stereotype back !

 

[Bozza]

Go strong and go hard.

If the game goes our way then make wholesale substitutions to give others game time.

 

[Poojah]

Thanks for the reasoned response, I was just expecting the, seemingly unjustified, worst outcome.

I totally get it; I imagine it feels a bit like you’re entering your shiny, brand new Bugatti into the local stock car race but, honestly, our lot are much more like a quiet drive in the country. A real pleasant bunch, I promise you.

After Charlton I can’t see RDZ taking any chances with this one and he will want a cup semi final in his first season in England on his CV

 

[Gabbiano]

I think it will probably be the strongest team at this stage, although I would like to see Gilmour, Sarmiento and the like. Maybe they will be subbed in if all goes according to plan.

 

[Change at Barnham]

The fact that it's followed by an international break increases the chances of playing close to the strongest team possible.

 

[Arkwright]

Start strong and adjust accordingly, remember Charlton.

 

[Hugo Rune]

I wonder if this team would be strong enough:

————————Sanchez————————-
Lamptey—-Webster——Dunk——Estupinian
————Gilmour———-Caicedo—————-
March————Sarmiento—————-Mitoma
——————-—-Ferguson————————-

We can’t keep ‘playing our strongest team’ with fixtures list absolutely crammed in April and May. They’ll be exhausted. We should make a few changes.

 

[ManOfSussex]

Full strength. Take the foot off the gas if we end up with the luxury of actually having burned them into the ground first. This is the first FA Cup 6th round home tie I'll have ever seen us play at home and I don't understand any Albion fan who thinks this will be easy.

 

[Icy Gull]

If anyone thinks RDZ isn’t going to really go for this they have not been paying attention

 

[OzMike]

Great chance of making the semis, so batter them........pun intended.

 

[JOLovegrove]

Lamptey in for me, deserves a game. And one of the South American youngsters too.

Van Hecke did well at Stoke, so deserves to keep his place IMO.

 

[sydney]

Very, very busy fixture schedule coming up in April...

Should this be an opportunity to rest some key players, or should we instead give our young players some more first team experience and rest some key players?

can't really expect much in April really 4 or 5 points max.......start with strongest 11 then sub a few off if we build a decent lead....lets have a go at the cup.

 

[Milano]

Full strength, end of.
RDZ was furious after Charlton, he doesn’t seem the type to make the same mistake twice.

 

[Invicta]

Colwill seems unlikely to play 2 games so close together after a long lay off.

Not playing Sanchez would be harsh on him after expecting him to miss cup games when 1st choice.

Hope we have 7 + regulars starting though.

 

[Sirnormangall]

Full strength. Get the job done. No regrets.

 

[Seagull Stew]

Keep the spine of the team playing (Estupinan, Dunk, Mac Allister, Caicedo, Mitoma) but make some replacements to other first team players (Sarmiento for Gross, Lamptey for Veltman, Enciso for March, Van Hecke for Colwill.
