ring the changes or try to keep this good run going?
I would personally go for the following
Runarsson
Romeo McGuiness Panzo Collins
Adams Rinomhota
Tanner Colwill Evans
Etete
Go with a strong team and try get a cup run going.
Despite our fantastic form I don’t think we’ve got enough to finish in the play offs, I think we’ll end up comfortably mid table. I don’t think it’s worth sacrificing our cup games to solely focus on the league.
The draw is looking pretty favourable too at the moment. 6 PL teams are guaranteed to go out this week and a couple of L1/L2 teams are guaranteed to be in the pot for the next draw.
I think he will rest all 11 starters against Sunderland if he can - maybe a problem at left back with O Dowda still injured but think he might shoe horn in a midfielder in there instead (possibly moving Romeo to left back and playing Rhinomoto at right back). They will say the cup is important but they will rest as many of the first team players as possible having just played 3 games in a weekOriginally Posted by Canton Kev
on the other hand we could play the first team and still lose up there
Depends on how seriously Blackburn are taking it i suppose.
Would start Robinson over Evans if he's fit, he needs game time. Otherwise agreed.
Yep, the attack made up of Tanner, Collwill, Robinson and Etete would be good to see.
Why no game thread from the boss?
Is he OK?
Not updated the league results for Sunderland either.
stuck in the traffic in north cardiff
I'd like to see a strong side out. I'd also like Ramsey to get some minutes if he's over the fever, so he's ready for Rotherham.
I would be happy with that.
Etete Colwill and Panzo has to start
Runarsson
Romeo Adams Panzo
Sawyers Wintle Rinomhota
Tanner Colwill Robinson
Etete
Maybe. I don’t think he will play too many regulars and will try something a bit different like he did at Birmingham
Looking at the very young side selected for the under 21s today, I’d expect players like Evans, Joel Colwill, Ashford and maybe the lad signed from Spurs to be in the squad. I’d like to see us go for three at the back again because I thought we played really well up at Birmingham.
I hope Robinson plays and I’d be inclined to leave Tanner on the bench as he’s featuring for the first team every week now.
That's a good selection.
Collins is probably due a rest but we have so few options in defence it’s hard.
Yep. Totally agree.
Rest Collins, Tanner and McGuiness
Robison in and Sawyers
Treat this as reserve practice trials to get in the main team.
I’m hoping for a win tomorrow then Bradford away. New ground for me!
Saw on Twitter that young Luey Giles is travelling with the squad to Blackburn
Would have no expectations of success up there in recent seasons but from what I’ve witnessed so far this season I’m comfortable that our fringe players can step up.
I’m hoping for a win tomorrow then Bradford away. New ground for me!
Evans for Tanner and J Colwill in for Wintle
Everyone playing to impress, we don’t need to risk Collins or McGuinness
Saturday will come quick enough and our first 11 need a rest
We’re in the middle of a “7 games in 21 days” spell.
I really don’t want to see any regular starters start, especially Collins.
Looking at the potential lineups, we need cover at left-back and in the Centre of defence for McGuiness and Goutas, Panzo is one, and we need one of the youngsters to act as backup tonight.
Definitely, way too many games, we have a decent team without using first-team regulars and some youngsters need to get involved in case they are needed, especially in defence where we are a little light.
