Birmingham City (H) - FA Cup R3 | Pre-Match Thread

The Notts Forest fiasco really pissed me off tbh.

Yep knew that day that Hughes didn't have a clue, amazed he lasted as long as he did afterwards

It wouldn’t surprise me to see Birmingham make 7/8 changes too. This competition just doesn’t seem important anymore to most clubs. It’s amazing that in the last 25 years it has only been won by 2 clubs outside of the usual suspects.

yeah the FA Cup ain’t what it used to be

Oldham have moved their tie with Bournemouth from boundary park to the vitality because their pitch is frozen. Wouldn’t have happened years ago

Somebody make a comprehensive list of whose out from covid, then who started (except Steffen) against United.

Then pick the remaining players, done.

Prob make 8 changes themselves.

This would not happen but I'd like to leave the back 5 as is and try Walker in the DM role. I think him and Bernardo together would be like two terriers.

Up front I'd like see how we'd look without Gundogan, KDB, Sterling or Mahrez. It'd be nice to see Delap.

..................... Stefan .............
Cancelo . Stones . Dias . Zinchenko
............ Walker .... Bernardo .........
Torres ..Delap .. Ageuro .. Foden

So right.. Delap needs another game..we cant keep letting players go for lack of opportunity..Sancho, looks like Braaf going to Dortmund too..Delap could be Haaland
