Well there isn't the same danger.
In the cup game the axe man could be an U23 who Bournemouth don't care about a banning.

They could bring one on on Friday with 10 or 15 to go. Job done.

Yes they could.
I'd look to mitigate against the total risk though by not playing Pröpper or Stephens in the cup game.

Neither Pröpper nor Stephens should be anywhere that pitch on Tuesday ffs.
Actually, my first thought is that I want to win on Tuesday, so want our strongest possible team out, with maybe just a couple of youngsters included. This competition is our best chance of Europe.

Sooner we are out, the better. We ain't gonna win it! Same with the FA Cup sponsored by whoever.
Well, that's your opinion.

Ive looked everywhere, its not on ours, but on the Rangers one although no Brighton team news and no team
We ain't gonna win the PL either.

I am sure TB's goal will be to remain within the PL, with no delusions of winning it (just yet!). Give him the choice of a domestic Cup or PL survival.....I think we know.

We are all realistic enough to know that Premier survival is the clubs goal, however while we aren't a Chelsea or any other club in Europe surely a second goal must be a cup run. Are any English clubs going to win the Champions League, probably not but they still field relatively strong sides in all competitions.
We scrapped through against Barnet why not give it a go at Bournemouth.

Argus reckons both sides will field a different team for each fixture and 40 or so players will feature over the 2 games.
And the correct one
I think there's a slight difference between the Champions League and Milk Cup
The former is for the elite to compete against the very best in Europe, claim the bragging rights, earn shitloads of money and attract the best players on the planet
Until the semi finals (at the earliest) the latter may present an opportunity for lower league clubs to make a few quid; but for PL and aspiring Champ clubs is little more than a distraction that has the potential to injure your most needed players but gives the opportunity to try out fringe players in some sort of competitive arena
Yawn........
