Anyone else panicking a bit yet about the non-arrival of their tickets for this one?

The post at the moment seems all over the place.

Had mine last Thursday.

We don't have to play youngsters.
We can still play a strong team even allowing for the omissions you mention.

True and expect that’s more likely. I expect we will start with Palmer and maybe McAtee.

Mine arrived today, they said they would be posted last Thursday 30th December.

Pep will likely play a stronger side then we all think, but I am hoping Palmer and McAtee at least get a start.

Our Portuguese trio desperately needs a rest.

Swindon confirming the signing of a new goalie and a new centre half. Hope this is the Cup money helping them to strengthen.

That will really have helped reduce his panic

Walker Stones Ake Zinchenko

Fernandinho

I always think 7 regular first teamers with 4 young lads is the best mix to ensure the kids learn and integrate best. This can be added to/reduced with subs depending on how the game is progressing.

This is not a early round League Cup game.
Lots of players can do with extra minutes (Walker, Stones, Gundogan, Foden, Zinchenko, Fernandinho to name a few). And with no misweek games coming up, expect a very strong City side.
One certainty : Steffen in goal.
