Team vs. Palace

[mpickard2087]

Come on then, what would everyone do?

I think there will have to be rotation, in a tough period of the season with injuries galore.

I don't see the point of risking - Eriksen, Alderweireld, Rose, Winks.
Not needed this week - Lloris
Probably injured/unavailable - Davies
Still unavailable - Kane, Alli, Son, Wanyama.
Could do with more minutes - Moura, Dier, Vertonghen.
Maybe question marks against - Sissoko after limping off, Lamela and Llorente playing a third game in a week.

So for me, probably ends up something like:

Gazza
Trippier Sanchez Vertonghen KWP
Moura Dier Skipp Nkoudou
Llorente Sterling

Subs: Vorm, Foyth, Aurier, Winks, Sissoko, Eriksen, Lamela​

Four-four-fucking two. Get some width, get Llorente a strike partner, and others around him. Chance for some of the youngsters/fringe players, give key players a breather, give some more minutes on their way back.

 

[The Mourneview Ace]

Names out of a hat. Don’t want to go out of two competitions in a week but hard to see how players will be able to stick it. More minutes for Dier would be good and hopefully some for Wanyama.

Foyth scored the winner there last time, get him on.

 

[mpickard2087]

Foyth scored the winner there last time, get him on.

I wouldn't be against playing Foyth with Sanchez, I suspect Poch will play one of his two senior centrebacks though.

Squad really stretched now, need the fringe players to set up

Vorm, Vertonghen, Eyoma, Dier, Lamela, Eriksen, Llorente

We literally have no other options and we need to keep Eriksen and Winks fit. Dier is not match fit yet neither is Llorente. Bare bones.

Why are most teams and squads without lloris? Is he injured also?

Gazza is the Cup keeper.

 

[roslau]

If we want to use Trippier and Llorente, we a should start with back 3 and wing backs.
Dier is a CB not a DCM. He always fails at big matches.
If we want to win some trophies and challenge the title seriously. We should find an upgrade on Trippier, Davies, Dier and Lamela. Otherwise, it’s just another missed opportunity on title and exit in semi final round the corner.

Yep, this is going to be a tough fixture. Very tough.

 

[EastLondonYid]

We cannot seriously put out a strong team with all our injuries and a massive match 3 days later, especially as its only the 4th round.
We have to be realistic now with all the injuries, we cannot take any risks. For me right now,the way things are going, the premier league and top 4 is our top priority.
Rest Winks,Eriksen,Jan ,Sissoko,Rose,Toby, give Lucas and Dier a half to get match fit. and play Llorente , he hardly runs himself into the ground does he.

[spids]

Totally agree with the OP .. players like Toby, Eriksen, Winks need a weekend off. We've looked really leggy recently.

i want to see roles getting his chance too but 99.99% sure he won't be involved as he isn't even training with the first team

 

[Hakkz]

Would love to see some hungry yoof players.

Would love to see some hungry yoof players.

If we did that there would be carnage on here after the inevitable defeat The only thing that makes me think we have a chance in this is that Palace will likely be resting players too.

There's going to be carnage anyway because "we risked our players and didn't play youth". I'd like for us to win, but it would be healthier for our broken squad if we didn't..
