Millwall Away FA Cup

[CPB]

We must all be on the same page here.
Play 2nd string and try to win but let's rotate players.

Start Davies, Robinson, Basham, Jebbison, Brooks, khadra (if allowed) and any other players from academy or coming back from injury.

Give N'Diaye full rest along with likes of Norwood too.

We have to take the cup lightly.
As much as I would love to have good go at it one season.

Khadra won't play.

 

[Booker4]

Think Khadra will not want to play as it'll make him cup tied for another team if he does. Would hope we'd get someone in by Saturday, but probably not!

 

[wizadry]

We’ve got that many injuries and a certain amount of players from the last game have to play apparently that we might see a stronger side out than most of us want. I usually love the FA cup but with the situation we find ourselves in then I wouldn’t mind us going out but I want to win every game obviously.

100% this, let's be realistic were never gonna win the fa Cup yes a run in it is nice but promotion an the millions that come with it is nicer an more important at this point.

An FA Cup run and risk injuries??
Decisions decisions.

Which is why we don't want one at this moment, hence why I agreed with the OP.

 

[Eza Blade]

Play yooooof

I know, I agree..

[Bladeloyal]

I'm going for a beer and that's it

 

[Bobby b]

It's a quandary, I'd actually play stevens and baldock, rather those 2 than risk lowe and bogle

 

[Jon B]

Millwall away in the Cup?

Toss I not give a.

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

I think 6 players have to start from the QPR match. I'd rest Anel, Egan, Norwood, Ndiaye and Sharp.

 

[Rusty]

Play u18s or the women...fck cup run I wanna go up

 

[Champagneblade]

Gage raised a reasonable post post-match. We play them in a few weeks so why give them some practice against what they'll face in the league?

Play 4-4-2 and keep it simple.

It's not as if the players wouldn't know how to play it.

I'd certainly be resting those that need it and knot risking Norwood, Ndiaye or Ahmedhodžić/Egan.

Where the hell have you got this from? Standard 10 or 11 changes along with the majority of the other 43 top two division sides.

Give the kids a run out what we don't need is a cup run to risk more injuries to key players, far more important to secure Premier League money we are not going to win the FA cup anyway it will go to a top six team like it mostly has done for the last 30 odd years.

It's EFL Trophy rules, but doesn't apply to the other cups where playing a complete second string is common - the magic of the FA Cup.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Do something like this

Davies
Bash Egan Robinson
Baldock McAtee Doyle Brooks Stevens
Jebbison Sharp

The silly injury list hinders what should be an ability to easily field a full second string

Should try to give debuts to a couple of kids as well

Agree on the whole. Except I'd start Norwood. Team won't know what to do without him

Exactly. That midfield should ensure our elimination

Stick Gordon in for Egan if we really want to go overboard

 

[JackSUFC]

Last night looked like one game too far on this Christmas run for some players, so we did well to come out with a point.

Give Ndiaye the weekend off and tell him to put his feet up. Same for Norwood. It'll be a horrendous watch but needs must.

We could hold a raffle on here to win a start upfront with Jebbison.

 

[groveblade]

• - - - - - - - - - - Davies
• - - - - - Basham Egan JRob

Bogle - Doyle Norwood Osborn*-Brooks
- - - - - - - - - Sharp Jebbo

Subs: Amissah, Baldock, Lowe, Arblaster*, 3xyoungsters

* If fit

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Mcburnie on the bench maybe...

If we get knocked out we have no midweek games until February and only 3 remaining this season ( if you don't count Easter Monday)

 

[jt64]

Lose so we can concentrate on the league, so yep, don't start him

Maybe the fine for breaking the rule is worth it ?

EFL Trophy rules Not FA Cup

Yes I know its the rules for that. The thing is I personally without absolutely no doubt whatsoever would rather see us win the fa cup rather than any promotion, not even a close comparison but because it basically isn't going to happen, virtually everyone, me included unfortunately just write it off, very sad.

 

[S64 Blade]

I'd rest as many as possible. Firstly to give key players a rest, but also to remove any risk of injuries. Really not bothered if we go out. Let's concentrate on going up.
