Fear Of The Fox Posted 1 January Share Posted 1 January 8 minutes ago, Pita said: Do we need to go for the cup. League much more important play a weak side and save the first team for the big games which matter We're a hundred light years ahead in the League. Enzo is hungry as a manager, he's already dreaming of silverware. What is your definition of a weak side especiallly now with key players like Ndidi off? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oz was my hero Posted 1 January Share Posted 1 January Rotate as much as possible. Injuries to key players and January could look very different. We need strong sides against cov and ipswitch. Already 4 players down, no idea when vardy is back. Praet is made of tissue. Casadei and yunus did OK today but don't want both starting at cov. Would also like to see ricci miss this one and winks have a rest, but who would play his role ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basildon Fox Posted 1 January Share Posted 1 January Looking forward to this as it is an easy away to get to. Been 3 times to Millwall and have a 100% record there. We have lost 2-0 every time. Time for the luck to change there I think. 2-0 to Leicester this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we could actually win the FA Cup as a second tier side, ala Sunderland, Southampton, West Ham back in the day. Then we can embark on another European tour. A European tour would be the last thing we'd need next season as a promoted side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lcfc82 Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January I’d rotate as much as possible. Need to be as close to full strength as we can be during the AFCON for the next 2 league games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January Could really do with another option to replace Ricardo and Winks. Choudhury is currently cover for both. I think we will changes at the back but don't have lots of options going forward unless he goes with youngsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January Trying to work out who to play has made me realise how short we are of options in the Winks role. I wouldn't want to play Justin, Winks or Ricardo in this game. We've literally only got Hamza so one of those three have to play. Stolarcyzk Nelson Coady Doyle ??? Hamza Albrighton Akgun Casadei Wanya Cannon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozartfox Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January We are better off out of this. Best outcome is - lose at Millwall and hope we get a week off when the 4th Round is scheduled. With Afcon, we have enough to contend with without extra games. Cove' the week after is going to be a very hard game.

filbertway Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January There's no better chance to go for a cup then this. We're clearly a million miles ahead both on points and in terms of squad quality/depth. If we get lucky with the draws who's to say we can't get far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January 36 minutes ago, Muzzy_no7 said: Braybrooke and Alves fit yet or what? Don't think so. I presume Braybrooke has had a set back and Alves we know picked up a muscle injury. Enzo's timescales put him being back about now but it's been suggested he's still several weeks away again.

grobyfox1990 Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January 11 hours ago, Chelmofox said: Even when we were defending champions we never put out anything near our strongest 11 in the 3rd round. It’s pretty common for teams to rotate. Yes but when we were defending champions we were fighting for survival in an incredibly tough league, and playing in the lucrative champions league. Things are very different this season, the FA cup is our only chance of competitive football matches up until next August in the Prem. We have to go as strong as possible and test our playing style IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We certainly can, but whilst AFCON is on and we've a few other players absent, I do think we need to protect Winks, KDH, Mavididi and Fatawu. The good thing is, we've a week's rest after Millwall and then another 8-9 days after Cov. I was not impressed with how dirty Millwall were the other week too, Fatawu can sit this one out for me and I'd rest Winks too.

Popular Post coolhandfox Posted 2 January Popular Post Share Posted 2 January Don't get football fans. Going for the top 4, sod the FA cup. In relegation fight, sod the FA cup. 10 point clear in the Championship sod the FA cup. Rotate a couple but let's try and get though. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnieTodger Posted 2 January Share Posted 2 January I’d only make 1 or 2 changes. There’s another week until the Coventry game, get it won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
