Burnley (H) - FA Cup - Sat 18th March, 17:45 | Pre-Match Thread

The only issues is are to give Haaland the game off or the rest of our key players or keep them all in the squad (or start a couple of them) and the anti-climax of winning 7-0 the previous games (but Pep won't allow too much of a drop in tempo)

Are you sure?

Are you sure?

I don't think there will be too many changes but Pep might do that before the international break. He did before the World Cup and we lost home to Brentford.

Own up those of you who always vote LOSS, using the reverse psychology theory.

What ;-)

No need to rest anyone but kev , vinny has them playing really well, play the b team and he will show us up

I think Alvarez deserves a start Kaz, Pep won’t normally play him alongside Erling.

Also if we want a strong second string, they need game time just to be fair to them. It will be a fairly strong team in my opinion but I don’t see KdB or Erling starting.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

I think Pep will play a strong team, after all there is a trophy there for the taking.

Hope De Bruyne sits this one out.

I think Pep’s management of his game time could prove to be pivotal.

Haha - sorry mate. I was joking about the fact that you appear to covering all possible bases

My wallet still has not updated with my Burnley ticket. It’s still showing my next game as Liverpool. Anyone else that has purchased a ticket for the Burnley game still not had their wallet updated?

Well in my wallet mines now showing v Everton at home. Last week it was WHU.

Might be the only one who thinks this but would rather win the FA cup than CL. Go anything less than full strength against the Clarets you can forget the cup. If they beat us then good luck Vinny hope you win it.
