Use it to rest players, don’t need anymore injuries.

We haven't got that many TBF.

 

The other thing is if you weaken the team and lose that's 3 on the spin and confidence will genuinely be sapped. There's an argument for making a couple of changes, getting a win as a boost and going into the final dozen games on an up.

Aye we'll still have to use first teamers, but don't go full strength. Need to use Nelson, Justin, Maca, Albrighton etc.

 

So annoying we didn't sign a midfielder in Jan, we're so light there.

[cruzFOX]

This game has come at a bad time for us. We really don’t need another spanking.

hopefully Bournemouth were watching last nite and will field a weaker team.

 

(listen to me - afraid of Bournemouth ffs. We were a solid premier league team not too long ago) 

[Chelmofox]

I’ll feking play the Harry Winks role. Just bin this off and focus on Q0R. 

[broadstone fox]

We dont need 3 losses in a row. Go for the win.keep confidence high. This could be our springboard for the remaining games.

The players will will be smarting from the leeds game

[Blueman1967]

I would like to see us give this a good go with a strong side, but it will be hard who ever gets to play.

[LVFox]

                  Hermansen 

Ricardo Nelson Vestegaard Doyle

                      Winks

            Praet.            KDH

Fatawu.                               Mavididi

                      Daka

 

Let's go for it!

[melrose]

A must win

Ha, let's be honest even in the title season they were a bogey team for us

[l444ry]

Two wins away from Wembley and some want us to virtually throw the game. Mad. If we were good enough for promotion seven days ago then we still are good enough now. Can't always wrap the players up in cotton wool, they get injured more often on the training pitch these days. With four days rest afterwards as well. Go as strong as fitness allows I say.

[Joe90lcfc]

Just watching the first 2 mins of the Bournemouth game they are closing down the Man City defence very quick, this will be a real test of how good our Center backs are on the ball! Frankly I’m not very confident 

[whoareyaaa]

Coady Nelson and Doyle to start at the back, Yunus and Preat to come in for Ricardo and Winks, Cannon for Daka, Mcateer for Mav, Albrighton for Fatawu

I don't disagree , but that team would get ripped to pieces 

[filthyfox]

Gonna get thumped.   Our team is SO weak.

[CrazyKopCorner]

Stolarcyzk 

Hamza Coady Nelson Doyle 

Albrighton Yunis Praet Cannon

                Daka Kelechi 

 

concentrate on QPR 

[nnfox]

Too many people getting scared in here.  Jeez! 

 

This is the FA Cup 5th round.  One game from quarter finals, two from Wembley.

 

Bournemouth are an excellent opposition for us to get a measure of where we are.  I say go for it.  We should be able to play the reserves against QPR and still get a result.  

 

Two games where we have dominated the game and deserved wins but ended on the losing side and everyone here goes into meltdown and then says it's the players that don't have any bottle.  Get a grip.

[South Shire Fox]

Reserve side and focus on the league.

 

                    JS

 Cover Nelson Coady Doyle

      Hamza     Praet

Albrighton Yunus Wanya

                Cannon

Iheanacho and the under 23s on the bench

Nothing to do with scared, its more keeping the first team fresh and injury free for vital league games instead of wasting them on a cup we arent winning. Leeds will do exactly the same

Don’t go resting players.

This is a top competition,go for it.

Championship,cup double..break records…

Nothing beats good  solid runs..

Tuesday could be a very long night. I don't think we match up well against this at all.

Problem is it's a genuinely bad situation of a game for us. They have less reason to rest than us. I'll be seriously impressed if our make shift XI doesn't crash out here. They're a tidy team Bournemouth. Full of energy and pace. Really enjoy watching them.

Agree. It's a ground we've been rubbish at for the past decade and they'll go man for man against us, which we've struggled with even against inferior Championship teams.

It’s a good measuring stick on how we perform against a mid to lower Premier Lesgue team. 

Assuming Bournemouth are going full strength and scrapping like they would if 3 points were at stake..

[weller54]

Play like they did tonight against Manchester City and it really doesn't matter what team we put out... we'll get thumped!!
