Luton Town (A) - Tue 27th Feb, 20:00 | FA Cup | Pre-Match Thread

Plenty of mentions of the price of our bench tonight....just wait until Tuesday!!!

In fairness, money wise, it must be the biggest discrepancy between two premier league teams.
After a 30 points deduction, bankruptcy and a stay in the conference, its like Seal getting a good banging from Heidi Klum.

Incredible, Jeff.

This Cup tie scares me, Not for facing Luton but because the Match officials will be all over us, They will be after giving Rodri a red card or Foden Or Haaland because we know what game is up next in the premier league don't we? Take our best player (Rodri) away from the midfield or Haaland goals from the team and they will fancy beating us.

Right Now I would take one of the 3 trophies on offer and go balls deep, If that is the FA Cup then Ok, Same with the Premier League, But I have this feeling the Champions League final at Wembley is our number one aim and we will go BALLS DEEP IN THAT

eh? but cards and suspensions in the fa cup have nothing to do with the epl, or at least i think so. am i wrong?

can we afford to rest Rodri? He really needs a break before the big run.
Id play Haaland though, he needs the minutes.

 

[Axel Freed]

Rest Rodri, Bernie, Stonesy.

Kev needs minutes

Absolutely gutted that Covid has scuppered my trip. Love the FA Cup and was really looking forward to it.

Hope we rest Dias, Stones, Rodri, Foden and Bernie.

I agree. Pep needs to look at the picture though. March and the league is the bigger picture. The key players need rest. They were running on fumes against Bournemouth.
Forget about the FA cup this year.
