I'm sure the fans making the midweek trek to Bournemouth are delighted with that line up....

They’d be very naive if they bought a ticket believing we were playing our strongest 11 after the last two rounds..

Seriously, does anybody know who Briggs is? I thought I was quite well up on our youth players.

Let’s be honest and I’ll be very happy if I’m completely wrong but that 11 in an FA cup 5th round winnable tie against a prem team that were always going to rest 10 is pretty pathetic - full side and quarters here we come - might as well have been knocked out in 3rd round putting that side out tonight - like I said hope I’m wrong but let’s call a spade a spade - he has put the Ressies out because Saturday is more important- it is what it is - hope it helps the young lads and doesn’t hurt them 

Its pretty obvious Enzo isnt bothered about the cup, hes probably played reserve sides hoping we’d be knocked out earlier in the competition so we could focus on the only thing that is important this year.. promotion

That’s what stopped me doing away cup games years ago, if the manager isn’t arsed about it then why make the journey and take the time off work.

Everytime I see Ward's name on a team sheet I get palpitations and a cold sweat! 😆

 

Come on Leicester! Looking forward to this 💙

True but if it gets to pens, which is extremely unlikely given the line up, I would be tempted to sub him on for them. He's actually got a good record in shoot outs.

Whos playing dm?

Hamza the obvious choice but who then plays right back

Raikhy being trusted to play in the pivot?

Itll be Hamza inverted rb with Raikhy in the "Winks" role

I'm conflicted. On the one hand - sensible. Don't need the distraction.

 

On the other - semis of the FA.

I believe you mean quarters. 

[sm1]

Let's hope we're not playing a high line with Coady, Vesty and Doyle as our backline.

[Ian Nacho]

Praet will be in the Winks role.

Now I think about it. Maybe it'll be praet in there and Raikhy and Yunus as the 8s. Probably makes more sense

Or he gets a semi for the quarters

I think he means if we put out a decent side and won, it would be semi finals.
