So if we get turned over are people going to bitch and moan as normal. Or will some remember this is what they wanted.

I will be bitching and moaning

Things got really exciting! Reminds me of that experimental lineup Pearson put out against Palace way back in early 2012 in which we won. Hopefully, we'll see signs of something brewing for the club this season. Well happy for Barnes, especially! 

[Blue Ed]

442 -  Why.

 

Mendy and Gray starting excited about that

Not sure about the big pole at centre half. He looked completely finished last time he played. Hamer is a huge concern too. Decent midfield though.

Did you not see his performance in that 1-0 win against Stoke in the great escape season?  

So good the club gave him 2 years off. He'll probably have a stormer tonight anyway, it makes sense that he does.

[Mark_w]

Excited to get a good look at Drinkwater and Mendy together.

[Brooksy]

Think we'll get hammered, 4/5-0

For me, if the performance is like the PL games then yes. I'll be unhappy. But there is no reason why the players getting their opportunity tonight shouldn't run their guts out. So I'm hopeful they press hard and attack the ball. If they do that and lose, at least we can say they tried.

I can see a repeat of Chelsea in the league cup. Wasyl with a red.

[Witch]

WASYL!

Rumour has it you always do. But that was from your ex boyfriend.

[Jaspa]

Massive opportunity for some of the peripheral players to stake a claim and an even bigger one for the younger players in there. Nice touch for Wasil too

 

Only questionable one would be Hamer but again its a chance for the game of his life. Good feeling, c'mon lads

Still no sign of Kapustka

Injured mate... I'm sure nobody else has mentioned it 

[Guest Col city fan]

We really still 10-1 tonight?

I will be mitching and boaning!... Nothing like a good boan! 

[Barky]

Mendy! The saviour. Praying he gets a good 60-70 minutes in the bag. Great chance for some others to stake a claim.

[Monk]

Porto will be well up for this and we have little to play for, experimental lineup I find it hard to see past a loss

[Merging Cultures]

We really still 10-1 tonight?

That's a lot of goals, Hamer isn't that bad...

[midland_red]

would have like to have seen Ulloa start - he has the fighting spirit we need.
Not sure about Was either.
But in general - looking forward to seeing hw this team performs

Who else do we play Huth split his head open

[AS78UK]

Got to back us on a draw no bet option at those odds. 

 

Excited to see how we do...still worries about the defense though. 

[Kitchandro]

Hard to say whether he's rewarding Gray & Okazaki for combining for the goal on Saturday or if he's starting them because they aren't playing on Sunday....

[FuchingKante]

Remember saying I hoped Wasilewski would never play for us again after his last performance
