West Brom (a) League Cup pre-match thread

[domalino]

I wonder who that was against...

Fulham.

Fulham.

Ah right, I was thinking of West brom knocking us out that season but of course Pulis was still at Stoke.

If Toure isn't ready yet, maybe give Gundogan a start and have Fernandinho on the bench

Touré doesn't appear to be injured. That's not the problem. There's clearly something else going on there. In fact, I'd really like to see Yaya in this game, with perhaps a couple of the youngsters, and otherwise, regulars (especially Gundogan, who needs game time). The idea of throwing a load of youngsters in is not a good one. It amount to throwing in the towel. If they get walloped (which they probably will), they will surely blame themselves, and that's no good for any youngster's development.

--------------------- Bravo --------------------
Danilo --- Kompany --- Mangala --- Mendy
-------------------- Gundog -------------------
--------- B. Silva ------------ Delph ---------
Sterling ----------- Jesus -------------- Sane

If all's going to plan after 60 mins, Foden for Delph, Yaya for Gundog. After 80 mins Tosin for Vinny or Zinchenko for Mendy.

0-2.

Go 4 atb with Mangala as LB

I think we should concentrate on getting Managala comfortable and confident playing at centre back before asking him to play left back

 

[Ethan23]

De Bruyne and Aguero should be nowhere near the squad!

Bravo
Danilo
Kompany
Mangala
Mendy
Delph
Gundogan
Foden
B. Silva
Sane
Sterling

Diaz, Tosin and Yaya to come on if we're a couple goals up after 60 mins

I wonder if pep reads this thread to get some ideas for team selection there have been plenty of choices.
