Kingman

Recommended Posts

W/C 23rd September, Sandwiched in between Arsenal away on the Sunday and Burnley home the following Saturday 

You would like to think it will be on the Wednesday seeing as we play on Sunday

Yeah that’s alright. I would have preferred a championship club for the team that played the other night to face (assuming it’ll mostly be them). A championship club would have been a smaller step up, but at the very least it should be a decent test.

I don't think we will see the same 11 as Tuesday for this one expect a much stronger team.

Yes I do as well, think Smith will say to the lads go win the whole thing.

Which will be a shame as it will limit the game time the second string would have had if we had drawn a championship side.

I think the third round of the league cup is too early in the competition to be putting out a full strength team, when we have a 6-pointer against Burnley 4 days later.

Obviously field a stronger lineup than vs. Crewe, but I wouldn't risk players like Mings (too injury prone) and I would definitely limit game time for Wesley, McGinn and Grealish.

We should still be able to win.
