DCJonah Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I think it's more important that key players are fresh and healthy than winning the game. And TBH i can't see players being fully committed in a nothing game a week before the final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfctom89 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I do not want to see Benteke, Grealish, Delph or Cleverley in this game. We can't afford to lose them for the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfctom89 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I love how both grealish and cleverly are two of the most important players now , credit to both of them under Tim !!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heid3ster Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Grealish, Cleverley and Okore all looked dead on their feet yesterday. Sherwood indicated that Okore's been playing with a knock also. I'd like to see all three rested against Burnley if we can do it. It's a good opportunity for someone like Gil to come in and show Sherwood that he has a role to play next season. I think this Christmas tree formation would really suit Gil, too, so I do hope he gets the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Yes rest Grealish, Cleverley, Okore and maybe Delph too, Give Gil a game. I wouldn't rest Benteke unless he's carrying a knock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 This is a must win still, we need to go into the final on a high I really don't see how beating an already relegated Burnley would make us play amazing in the cup final, the quality levels between the two are large to say the least. For people worrying about a limp end of season Hull actually finished with 3 defeats end of last season and then gave a tremendous performance in the final. If we went 2-0 up v Arsenal I'd fancy us to hold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Ahhhhhhhh.....to go into next Sunday with no pressure is a great feeling. Should be a party atmosphere. I hope TS gives a few players a rest for the Cup final. For Burnley I'd go with: Given Lowton Senderos Vlaar Hutton Sanchez Gil Cole Sinclair Weimann Gabby Please no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Given Bacuna Vlaar Baker (Senderos if not fit) Richardson (Lowton if not fit) Sanchez Westwood Gil Cole Sinclair Gabby Don't even let Benteke outside over the next week, wrap him in bubble wrap.

John Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I do not think anyone deserves a rest that played on Saturday because they got one then! I think those that played need a shot of confidence that a win against Burnley would provide. Given that anyone with any slight knock should not play. It would also be nice to see three or more of Gabby, Sinclair, Gil, Weimann, Cole, Lowton and Senderos getting some sort of time on the pitch with the final in mind. Looking forward to a game without the pressure of relegation hanging over our heads particularly in the last few minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Yes rest Grealish, Cleverley, Okore and maybe Delph too, Give Gil a game. I wouldn't rest Benteke unless he's carrying a knock. What's the point in playing Benteke in a meaningless game? He's already on form. If he got an injury, or even a knock, against Burnley in a dead rubber, it would be devastating. We'd have pretty much no chance in the Final if that happened, if we're being completely honest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben1505 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 For our last game of the season, we always pull positions out of a hat, including water boy, physio, kit man.... I want to see Vlaar as one of the above... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
