I'd give Sterling a rest tonight, he's had a lot of game time and we need at his best for the Liverpool game and Christmas fixture pile up.

Bravo

Walker
Otamendi
Garcia
Angelino

So no 3rd tiers open at all tonight? - think we have 17,000 3rd tier seats - so around 37k in the lower 2 - say we dont sell 1k - will be a crowd of about 35k.

Was expecting a bigger crowd to be honest - 50,000 when we played Wolves 2 seasons ago at the same stage, albeit with 6000 or so Wolves fans. 41,000 when we played Palace at the same stage in 2015 with a couple of thousand away fans. Then again, is it half-term this week or was that last week? I guess if it's not then that's a factor because for those other 2 games I think it was

Don't think you will be far wrong with that. Maybe Poveda for Bernabe.

I think issue is we play the same lot on Saturday again just a few days later ...
 
We're two titles to equal Liverpool record in this competition so I'm hoping for a strong side for every round.

If Southampton bring more than 500 i'll be amazed

I think the negativity has got worse since then tbh. People posting on here the prices are too high, the weather is shit, the traffic is shit, the trams are shit, the beer is shit, the atmosphere is shit, the competition is shit etc. I think this air of negativity influences others not to come. Personally I can never get enough of watching this club, this team.
