We’ll probably play 11 players. Maybe Carson as the number 10?

I think it was done yesterday as the embargoed section after the game.

Wilson Esbrand must be 2 players

Pep is busy at Arteta's bedside trying to comfort him after his arse fell off yesterday.

I think that team too, maybe with Jacob Wright as DM and Nico upfront.
Haven't heard much about Divin as yet.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Are we wearing the maroon kit to continue the wearing away shirts at home cup fuckery?

My toilet break unexpectedly ended abruptly. But yes, add Carson up top ;)

Just seen Newcastle's cup game has been postponed so they've got a week off. Even more reason to play the kids!

Why has their game been postponed? Why couldn't our League cup game be moved to next week as well ( or have we got a Euro game?).Unfair advantage for them for Saturday.

I can’t see that many young players playing. I think this side will be a lot stronger than thought, with a one or two players like Mcatee starting hopefully.

It's a young team but I'd say there's players with a lot of experience there. I think he'll want to rest the lads that played last night.

The 1 caveat being that the way the 2nd half went last night, it might not have been that taxing for our lads.

 

[aka blue jambo]

Missing this one as really cannot justify the expense .. hopefully a nice gentle victory

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

We can’t afford any more injuries or suspensions from key players, no doubt Pep will be pragmatic.

thought AFC Wimbledons ground is a new modern ground built to deal with pitch issues

The area flooded around the stadium to be fair to them. They might not be playing on it for a while.
