Predict the team for the cup game 07:55 - Jan 7 with 8438 viewsnumptydumpty

Walsh

Ashby Clarke Salter Edwards Santos

DIxon-Bonner Colback

Lloyd Madsen Saito

Kolli



Obviously know there will be a lot of players rested but will Marti try to keep the run going.

If my predicted team above wins, we would truly need to be calling Marti the new Messiah.

Anyone else want to predict the team ??

Yep would agree in principle mate .

But if he rests a couple I would understand I guess is what I’m saying whilst being slightly frustrated that we might not totally go for Leicester, who will surely rest players themselves.

I can see the data guys requesting to manage the minutes of someone like Frey for example.
As someone else mentioned , what is a ‘weakened team’ anyway. Colback needs minutes so is likely to start / play an hour and only 6 weeks ago we were screaming for his return . I have no insight at all but someone like Field must be getting into red zones etc so do we play him again in a cup competition we have a slim to no chance of winning or do we rest him so we don’t risk him him being available for the rest of the season?
I can see that argument whilst not fully agreeing .

The positive side is we have recently manufactured a situation where we are not deep in the proverbial so that’s where I agree with you that we can go strong at Leicester .
Unfortunately for people like me (of a certain age ) the priority of all football clubs is league football unless you miraculously find yourself in the later rounds.
That’s something I think I’ve now just accepted as sad as that is .

I hope so Lassel, but we've heard that one before.

Perhaps. Flip side to that is a coach is judged on his league position .
Mark Robins is a prime example of that . That’s how coaches live and die so I can understand if MC approached it differently to the fan base .
I hope you are right but would understand it if he rested a couple.

Thanks for the chat, Mart. Differing outlooks, but that's ok too.

Either way, we won't know until an hour beforehand.

Now, who wants to talk about beating Luton three times?

Still buzzing from Monday night . Amazing the difference in my mood waking up the next day after a (another) win 😄
