Rest the team that started today other than Walker for more game time as we can always replace him late on and Soldado as his last chance saloon. He doesn't deserve to be in the PL team so this has to be his last chance to show he can contribute before January. Newcastle will likely play a slightly weakened side as they are now doing okay in the league so I think that side should be enough. I'd name the strongest possible bench just in case it doesn't work out and hope we draw a championship side in the next round if we win (there's a decent chance of that IMO) so we can give Winks/Onomah/Ceballos etc some game time then. I would have picked a stronger team but I think fresh legs will be of more benefit than playing the 11 that started today

rest everybody and still put out a team with a monster midfield..
Kaboul- yeahI can give you 6 good reasons why that team would crash out. Kaboul, Vlad, Rose, Capoue , Townsend and Soldado. We are in the quarter final of a competition which gives us at least an outside chance of winning a trophy. Please let's go with our strongest team and try to get to the semis.
