Oxford Utd (A) - LeagueCup QF - Pre-Match Thread

I want scum next, then dippers. To hell with them, time to make a statement.

I don’t think it’s possible to make any statement in this competition.

Could Aguero come into the reckoning? He's not missed that many games.

might be a bit early for him, but it would be good if he could get 15 minutes or so

Probably over-egged it with the kids but I’d love to see us give them a shot. Realistically I think Pep will go with a majority senior side for this, possibly starts for Garcia, Foden & maybe one other but mostly “B” senior players.

Hopefully similar to earlier round at Preston with a mix.

i really hope THB gets some real time on the pitch...He looks a great prospect bu only seen tiny bits of him so far and he needs to be given a big chance against some decent opposition. (Ie above reserves level).

the sod off sentiment has to have it's roots somewhere. every trophy helps, and at scum and dippers expense, even better.

Think the majority of the side picks itself, only question about the back 5 is who plays left back, zinchenko needs games after his injury and angelino needs games too, 50/50 toss up there.

wouldn’t be surprised to see zinchenko play in midfield alongside gundogan and Foden who are both surely shoe-in’s.

upfront mahrez and Bernardo seem likely to start leaving one space for Jesus/Aguero/sterling or a kid like poveda/bernabe

Think we will see this.
