Half the teams dont even take it seriously and use reserves until the semis now. Id 100% rather focus on getting into Europe over the FA Cup if we are still up and around there in Jan.

If you win the cup you get into Europe, like what Arsenal did last season. Well at least this will be on TV to see if plucky little Aston Villa can beat Jurgen Klop's Liverpool -provided they are not boycotting the competition as they will have to play 3 games in a week. The poor Lambikins. I don't know how they can cope with all these matches given they have so little money to patch up their squad.

John Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Klopp will be fuming. Where's their usual easy cup tie? Chelsea at home to Morecambe, Manchester United at home to Watford, Manchester City at home to Small Heath, Spurs at Marine and even Arsenal got a home draw.

PaulC Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 The importance of the league over the FA Cup rankles because its just about money nothing else. We haven't won it since 1957. Its time we did again! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Based on our ability to beat anyone at the moment I'd take a good run at this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidlewis Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Davis for Watkins Conor for Luiz Elmo for Cash Heaton for Martinez keep the rest as is providing no injuries or niggles. want a balance or resting key players and turning up with a chance of victory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I think we'll rest a few and give some fringe players a run out. Heaton Guilbert.Elmo.Hause.Taylor Barkley.Hourihane.Ramsay Troare.Davis.AEG I anticipate Liverpool will field a weakened team too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuwabatake Sanjuro Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 If Tezeguet and Barkley are back I'd go something like: Heaton Elmo/Guilbert Elmo/Engels Hause Taylor Nakamba Hourihane Trezeguet Barkley Ramsey Davis And maybe some of the u23s on the bench. Is it 3 or 5 subs in the FA Cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilko154 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Wouldn't want Barkley anywhere near this. Give him two extra weeks to get his hamstrings back in order. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Time for the B team.....Need to rest all 11 players who started versus manure. I have a strange feeling we won't though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
