Good strong line up in fact possibly too strong considering Sunday,just hope if we win its done and dusted in 90mins,also no injuries..

I won't be surprised if after such a strong team for a cup game Manuel fu*ks up at ucl and epl, including derby. And no youngsters... No Nastasic, but Dedryck the Great is on the bench again...

Well at least his minds not on the edl, the ira or the uvf.

Would have rested Silva and Toure but hopefully both will be ok for Sunday having to only play part of this game and being subbed for tactical reasons.

Some of that team have had limited football in the last month, so no point resting them. Toure's ACON excursion means we should play him as often as possible, in my opinion.

At the age of 31, Toure should not be playing 3 games per week IMO.

eating three cakes per week IMO.

I agree, it's slowing him down.

Hopefully subbed for rest reasons not tactical.

Dinho! :) No nasty though :(

Nasty's history unless we have a catastrophic injury crisis IMO.

Unfortunately with the current pecking order, 2 injured centre halves is a catastrophic injury crisis.

Strong team. Expecting a comfortable win.

Famous last words.
