January 10, 201610 yr I'd go full strength. It's the first eleven (or as near as possible) that need to build momentum and confidence. And I don't see the benefit of playing 4 or so youngsters that don't play again till next seasons 3rd round game. If there are two or three that are good enough, they should be being integrated little and often throughout the season, not just in one slightly disjointed lineup against a lower division side. Costa hatrick - 5-1 win.

January 10, 201610 yr No youngsters as expected, just starting to find some form, my guess is Hiddong wants to continue this trend
January 10, 201610 yr He's only in the job for another few months, he wants the trophy badly for the club and to add to his collection. He's taking this very seriously and it doesn't surprise me at all that we're seeing no kids
January 10, 201610 yr Perfect opportunity for the younger players today. Can't see why Hiddink won't give them a chance
January 10, 201610 yr He could give RLC play instead of Ramires and play Baba instead of Ivanovic. I don't get it.
January 10, 201610 yr Lmao. I genuinly cant tell if youre serious By f**k off I mean it in frustration, no that I want him gone. I'm just sick of watching our players to be honest, what sort of message does this send to young players at our club or prospective young players that we want to sign? None of them have a future at the club. If they can't get a chance over unmotivated out of form players when will they ever get the chance?
January 10, 201610 yr Can't grumble at the team, obviously wants to win it. Had we played kids and lost, we'd be fuming with the lack of experience and disrepsect to Sc**thorpe, let's just get on with it. Would have liked to see RLC and Kenedy, even Bamford given a shot, but no big deal He is only here until the summer, blooding kids is a long term thing, sadly Jose didn't fancy them either Edited January 10, 201610 yr by RickUK
January 10, 201610 yr could have played loftus-cheek though. it is against sc**thorpe after all. just one young player would be nice Edited January 10, 201610 yr by enigma
January 10, 201610 yr didn't expect anything else...same old sh*te when it comes to giving the kids a run out...........it's f**king Sc**thorpe FFS not Barcelona
January 10, 201610 yr can we try to win some games before letting the youth play ? they probably gonna be on the field by the 70th minute anyway/..

January 10, 201610 yr We have enough youth team players on the bench to be given game time when the match is won. Personally I was pleased to see Arsenal, City and United all put strong elevens out yesterday, we today have followed suit which goes with the spirit of the worlds greatest cup competition. The FA Cup will only keep its prestige if the top clubs grace it with their best players.

January 10, 201610 yr Shock. f**k off Hiddink. We're 14th in the Barclays Premier League, out of the capital one cup, and you're telling the interim manager to f**k off because he's taking a cup competition seriously? Fair enough man
January 10, 201610 yr Why did people think he would play youth? His priority is the league and Europe, therefore he needs as many of the squad he intends to use for the rest of the season match fit and sharp as possible, and those will be the senior players. I hope when we are 2 or 3 up then we bring the young uns on.
