sh*te draw Zzzzz

Hope we can avoid extra time or a penalty shootout!

Happy with that. Great opportunity to play our kids and give those lacking regular first team opportunities a chance to prove themselves to the manager.

Seem to remember us playing Peterborough about 10-12 years back, 5-0 I think?

Yes, that's right. We played Peterborough in 2001 and defeated them 5-0.

 

Id like to see the youff given a chance in an otherwise full strength side. Forget mikel or ivanovic or begovic - that's not going to help us progress as a club (I'd probably add Oscar to that group), but put Alina RLC and Chalobah in with 6 or 7 regulars. Isn't Kennedy back - worth a shout at lwb although I'd rather have a look at Alina on right first and I think when the kids get put in to a side with 8 changes it's not a fair measure of where theyre at. Might be good for Kurt to get a run out at some point.

for me perfect draw if used wisely.

Good draw to play the youth

I'd go with

Begovi?

Ivanovi? - JT - Zouma

Aina- Chalobah - Kante- Alonso

Willian - Michy - Oscar

I like it, except I'd give Kante a break and play Cesc instead. Also Kenedy will be back by January, maybe he plays instead of Alonso

Something like this:

Begovic 

Ivan
Zouma
JT (C)

Aina
Chalobah
Fabregas
Kennedy 

Willian
Michy
Oscar

Subs:

Eduardo 
Luiz
Moses 
Obi-Wan
Loftus
Hazard 
Solanke

Yeah Cesc could start totally missed him, and Kenedy is loaned out for the season unfortunately.

He's training at Cobham with the first team. The word is he's getting his loan cut short.

He is out because of his knee injury, that could be only reason he is back with us to fully recover. However if he is coming back no one will be happier than me love the lad.

feck it, i want tottenham

Anybody at home. Don't care who.

Hoping for Leicester away as always

I like Leicester, too. Good challenge and a win will surely prepare us for tough, crucial stretch.

Leeds or Millwall away?

Definitely going if it's one of those. Brighton, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle, Brentford or AFC Wimbledon (all away) have potential too. 

Wasn't draw due at 7pm?

Predictions?

 

I reckon we';ll get Man City away.

Brentford at home!

Not a great draw when you look at it, nothing really stands out. It was the same in the 3rd round though and there were still a few upsets.

Derby - Leicester is clearly the pick of those games. Was hoping Leicester would be at home though, I need the work!

AT home, if a little unexciting. 

 

Another good chance to give some of the youth a chance.  Will be interesting if Mousonda and Kenedy are still here at that time. 

Thought it might of been millwall.   Owen saying yes when he pulled out Liverpool  for a home draw little c**t, they have to win the replay first.
