Notice the scum play 12:30 Saturday and they were quick to get the Wednesday date to play there league cup game! Sorry we play Sunday so why do they get the right it pick Wednesday!? They should have been told they had to play Tuesday!
 
As stupid as it is, it’s a blessing in disguise as Pep now can’t play any of the big guns who play against Arse. If we go out we go out.
Exactly. I see no reason why we cant field a strong 11 capable of winning anyway. Maybe we will have one or two players out of position. Also some of the players who face Arsenal may be able to make the bench. Not ideal but hardly worth worrying about and I am not sure a run deep into this competition suits us with the extra CL fixtures in January.
 
The reserves, playing 2 days after Arsenal, 4th home game in 10 days. And it's on TV.

Imagine the empty seats.
Why worry. Anyway can they not sell a shed load of tickets for a fiver or something along those lines. Not likely to be a full house anyway regardless of who is playing.

The problem is the overlap.

Walker is your first choice RB. What happens if he get a slight pull? Can Rico still then be played vs watford
What happens if any of your first teamers get ill?
Can you just throw Stones back in?
Bobbs injured, isn't he?
It's more complicated than just having 2 teams of players, it's all about risks and percentages.

If Oscar Bobb plays it will be a miracle

They couldn’t play on the Tuesday as we’re at home to Inter that night.
The CL games that midweek are Tuesday/Wednesday so the rags Carabao game could be on either night. The EL games the following week when we need to play Watford are Wednesday/Thursday. Not putting the rags game on Thursday is the unforgivable administrative error.
Edit - we play Inter on the Wednesday. That’s now been pointed out to me so apologies for a largely irrelevant post!

On a selfish note i can go to the tie now.
Would not have made Wednesday.
Our squad should cope with a game on Sunday then the Tuesday.
