cityred exile Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 LJ quoted on RB interview that he has already picked and told the players the team for both the Derby and Stoke matches last Friday , Anyway my guess would be as follows Steele Pisano Flint Maggs Kelly COD Brownhill Pack Eliasson Taylor BR/ Fammy 1/2 each

Lrrr Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 Depends on Pisano's level of fitness, if he's ready for 60/70 minutes I think he'll start with the plan to sub him off for Vyner. Think we'll see Stoke as there to beat and a great chance of making the 4th round. Frankie Pisano/Vyner Wright Baker Bryan Pato Pack O'Neil/Brownhill Eliasson Reid Woodrow
INCRED Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 O'Neil isn't fit, Woodrow is cup tied! Steele will play in goal I reckon and Pisano won't be risked so Vyner will play. Would like to see Kelly play and give JB a rest. Mags will get a game as will Taylor & Elliason. Still have a decent enough side out to give Stoke a good game

Frankie Pisano/Vyner Wright Baker Bryan Pato Pack O'Neil/Brownhill Eliasson Reid Woodrow No chance of that side, think he'll make at least 8 changes . Got to keep the squad happy . Imo steele vyner hegeler/flint mags kelly o'neil (if fit) brownhill eliasson leko ( if not cup tied ) taylor famara

I guess it depends how realistic LJ views our chances of winning are. Round 4 you're talking about being down to the last 16.

Give the rest of the squad a run out , they need the minutes . Give the others a rest and get them ready for Norwich .

Thing is from the team I listed maybe 5/6 are guaranteed starters, the CB's tend to be able to play game after game so okay to play them midweek. Bryan appears to have great stamina and an ability to play Saturday/Tuesday, so you're talking of Pato and Reid being subbed off early to save them. However I'll admit I forgot Kelly, lad deserves his chance in the first team again.
steviestevieneville Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 We need a fresh side though to play the high press with plenty of energy. Don't want to risk injuries in a nothing game either. If it was the F.A cup yes but not the league cup.
wendyredredrobin Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 Would love to see us progress in the league cup. Everyone takes it seriously at quarter final stage and it's also a porential money spinner with extra gate receiots and tv rights.
Swede Posted September 17, 2017 Posted September 17, 2017 My team would be; Steele Vyner, Flint, Magners & Kelly O'Dowda, Brownhill, Smith & Eliasson Fam & Taylor. If GON was fit he would start ahead of Smith.

Betty Swallocks Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Reid come off Saturday as he was looking knackered, I expect he'll be rested for Saturday.
Ohbasso Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 This is what I think LJ will pick - Steele Vyner Flint Magnússon Kelly O'Dowda Brownhill Hegeler Eliason Taylor Famara
The_Don Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 A cup run is always good for morale and with the squad we have it's a good chance for some of the fringe players to get some much needed minutes, not too many changes though hopefully as we have a realistic chance of progression. How anyone can say they don't care about the league cup is beyone me, one of my best memories as a kid was that night at the City Ground in the semi, and the noise in the east end for the second leg.
BCFC_Josh Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 What team would you select for the match on Tuesday night? I would go with.. Fielding Vyner Flint Magnússon Kelly O'Dowda Brownhill Pack Eliasson Taylor Diedhiou Subs - Reid, Smith, Baker, Bryan, Paterson, Steele, Leko (not sure if cup tied)
Dunc Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Looks spot on Josh, perhaps hence the lack of replies so far. I'd personally give Steele a go in goal. That aside I'd be amazed if that isn't the line up. Will be interesting to see what kind of team Stoke put out.
Red Army 75 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Just watched an interview on stoke city's twitter page. Assistant manager said it was there biggest game of the season. Expect them to have a strong side out . All players traveling. Going to be a tough game tomorrow. Looking forward to it though

It's a tough one, last season our form seemed to dip after the Hull game. I think our recent results , will have caught Stoke's attention and their be ecpecting a tougher game than possibly when the draw was originally made. A good test tomorrow against a decent premier league team
MT1970 Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Should play a full strength team.. things turned pear shaped last year after we lost in the cup to hull, having made a multitude of team changes.

Tangle Foot Posted September 19, 2017 Posted September 19, 2017 I wonder if we might match up Stoke with a 3-5-2 or 3-1-4-2 formation? We struggled against Wolves last Tuesday, until we matched them up with 3 at the back. Maybe we will start 4-4-2 and switch if necessary. COYR
