I really dont care how weak the team against Middlesbro is and I see it as the ideal chance to throw the likes of Tilley, Bjordal,Connolly Gykores etc into the game to see how they do. We may be surprised by somebody.

Rest the 1st XI players who have played nearly every game.

Looking forward to this game and hope CH puts out a nice strong team that can get a result.

Well up for a cup run and dreaming can get to Wembley, why not !
Don’t forget 1983, don’t get me wrong I loved going to Wembley for the final, but this year I want BHA to stay up in the best league in the world

We have got used to losing, so absolutely can't be defeated in this game. We need to go into our next league game on the back of a victory, so for me CH HAS to play his strongest team possible in the same formation V Chelsea.

This is a must Win game.

I’d much rather we play some fringe players in a meaningless cup fixture and win our must win league games coming up against Saints, West Ham and Stoke. Each to their own though.

Some of the suggested line ups are pretty good when compared to last year's team.

Still think we will lose though. Unless Boro have a lack of appetite.

Tend to pick the team for Southampton and West Ham and then put in the ones left out for Middlesbrough.

The main importance is to make sure Pröpper, Groß and Murray are rested for Southampton.

Maybe rest Stephens as well, although that makes the central midfield selection trickier.

If we are going to play a back three I wouldn't mind seeing Stephens playing in the middle of the three (sweeping), I thought we needed a better passer in the system. This would also mean we can play a more positive midfield in Kayal and Propper.

I would agree if we were winning some games in the League, but now this isn't a meaningless game any more, its a must must must win, we have to start winning whatever it takes. This is a perfect opportunity to make that start.

One of Southampton and West Ham is 'must win' and the other of them is 'must not lose'.

Middlesbrough is simply 'nice to win'.
