I suspect being four years older is a big part of the reason why Brunt’s got the nod over Nelson. 

i was thinking this, that maybe brunt will deal with the physicality better? even if nelson is a better player at u23 level, if he's getting bullied physically it wouldn't be a good time

Who is brunt 

It’s a misspelling. Surely it’s David Brent.

[jayfox26]

I'd still be disappointed if we don't win. That Watford team is rank! 

[MarriedaLeicesterGirl]

Five subs in this. Could see quite a few debuts

Forget 74 and 77, who's in the 69 position?

[Collymore]

So we playing back 4 with Campbell, Vestergaard, Brunt and Albrighton? 

[Hales]

I really hope the senior players step up and spur the youngsters on.  Lots of heart, grit and determination!

Alves to come on and announce himself like a debutant Wayne Rooney! 🦊

No pressure lad!

Funnily enough Nelson is probably the bigger and stronger of the two 😂 maybe Brunt is quicker

It’s filled with international and PL experienced players. Better than ours  

[RoboFox]

Was never that bothered about the FA cup anyway 

[Will1981]

Maybe they rate Brunt higher than Nelson but Brunt is not in premier league squad 

[LestaFox92]

I'm gonna be brunt here i don't feel confident.

You'd think so. He either has to rely on youth at some point or he is going to risk further fatigue and injury to first team players, which, wouldn't actually surprise me.

Did you expect anything else with our current situation.

 

U23's who barely played a senior game and you're writing them off already calling them horrendous.

You really did not expect a positive post from weller54  did you?

Other than VDC and Brunt, man for man we are better in every position. Maybe not Vestergaard but the rest we are

Haven't seen such a weak defence since the Prince Andrew no sweating claim

[Shane]

Alves to score the winner !
