Morning all 🌞 and thanks for the MDT Earl👍
Well now, if ever there was a chance for MJ to kick-start his season (excuse the pun) as a goal scorer, this must be it. we should, (repeat the word ‘should&rsquo bury this lot 4 or 5 -0. I’ll therefore go for a nervy 2-1 win with an MJ brace👍
* Admin - you really must sort out ( ‘should’ ) turning into (‘should&rsquo 🤬🤣
Yes, this should be easy but knowing us we will make hard work of it. We will try to rest at least half the team but then, oh dear, we need to bring them on late in the game to save it.
Why do we not start at full strength so as to wrap it up by half time then we can do the resting of players?
Lots of managers make this basic error.
4 nil easy breezy
Team id go for if fit
Not as much depth as we think we have
Darlow
Schmidt
Wober
Ampadu
Bogle
Guilavogui
Rothwell
Ramazani
Aaronson
Gnonto
Joseph
We should make at least 9 changes for this one. Even so will be much too strong for Harrogate.
Darlow
Schmidt Rodon Ampadu Firpo
Tanaka Guilavogui
Rothwell
Gnonto Joseph Ramazani
4-0 Joseph Ramazani Firpo and Rothwell

That side would beat most championship sides (at home only lol)
Wouldn't risk Rodon or Tanaka in a game like this. Tanaka gets overplayed as it is.
Just listened to the whole of DF’s pre-match presser … seems that we’re after Jude Bellingham and Virgil Van Dijk 😁*

Thanks Admin once again
Match is sold out today which seems to becoming rare for FA cup ties nowadays.
6,000 at the Sheffield United v Cardiff game on Thursday night was a shocker.

That was a pitiful turnout but not unexpected on a cold Thursday night in January. The FACup is ruined now.
Mind you my son was invited to an Asian cup game one night this week gone - between a Bangkok team and a Vietnamese team. Sort of equivalent to the Champions League.
He sent me a picture of a line of about 50 stewards who were separating the 6 Vietnamese fans from the very low number of home fans. Also the football was absolutely sheet!
He said there was a freelance scout there but I think from what he saw on the pitch that my son, at 41, had more chance of getting spotted!

Yeah agree, not sure who's available.
I’m going for 5-1. Hope it’s a decent game in this cold weather though! Wrap up warm everyone!
Watching fhe Liverpool game, always liked Tsimikas.
would be a good target for us at LB.

Same. Zinchenko also for me.
Before anyone feels the need to go all pitchfork
on this thread. I like them as players. I'm not
suggesting we go get them.

Yeah, Tottenham are our feeder club.
We should win today 3 or 4 nil. Reality is, we'll probably
have a few hiccups. Hope Schmidt starts.
I would go with
Darlow
Byram Debayo Struijk/Wober* Schmidt
Guilavogui Ampadu
Gnonto Solomon/Rothwell** Ramazanni
Joseph
*based on fitness
**play whoever Farke believes is who would replace Aaronson is he’s unavailable
Darlow
Byram Debayo Wober Schmidt
Guilavogui Crew
Gnonto Joffy* Ramazanni
Joseph
(*unless he really is leaving - Rothwell instead)
Low-risk line-up. Give the first XI rest.
Still should be enough.
We're not winning the FA Cup.
Eye on the prize: promotion.
Sheff Entitled out, Sunderland 1 down at home to dreadful Stoke, just need Burnley to complete the league is priority set
