No I wasn’t logged in, I’m such a knob at times. 🙈

As much as I'd love to see them all involved this season... thats basically like putting out our u21s. A good blend of youth and experience will be good, but i think thats too far in that direction. I'd temper that slightly and instead go:

 

Begovic

Justin - Nelson - Vestergaard - Thomas

Winks - Page

McAteer - Alves - Monga

Ayew

 

Then bring on Aluko, Joseph, Evans for the final 30, whilst taking off a couple of the other youngsters. Manage their introduction to senior football, get them playing alongside some of the older faces who are likely to be in our usual starting lineups in the league, and integrate rather than overhaul.

 

Maybe Choudhury in for Page to begin with if we want a bit more grit in the midfield but still allowing both Alves/Monga to start, or move Monga to the middle and put Mavididi out wide so we can give Page a full run out in a position we desparately need more options in, to see if he can hack it.

Absolute scenes when it’s a Skipp Soumare midfield 

[Chief Keef]

Would be a good opportunity to test an Okoli/Nelson partnership. Would also rather see Skipp start over Winks again to rest him for Saturday.
 

Hoping Alves gets an opportunity to impress and force his way into the matchday squad. 

[HarryDee8]

Hudds gonna be a much tougher team, then the second string Wednesday team we played.

 

We just about beat their 10 men

 

[Sunbury Fox]

I think we'll go a lot stronger than lots of the suggested line ups. Marti will be keen to build a winning momentum early in his reign. 

[CrazyKopCorner]

He may use it as an extension of pre season and give some players a runout and potentially look at some alternative combinations e.g Nelson / Okoli, Winks / Alves, Monga as a 10 and he'll almost certainly start Daka 

[James and his giant peach]

Huddersfield have won both their league games without conceding and if we mess about with the team too much we will lose. Rest Abdul, Mav, Ayew and that's it. 

[jimsmallman]

It's only a tenner and on general sale so I'm going along to this now. Hope he gives Page and Evans a run out.

Really hoping to see Alves start and will be dissappointed if he doesn't. I was thinking that maybe the reason he didnt come on, on Sunday was that he's given the shout for this one.

That and he didn’t make the bench!

I didn't realize we had a cup game this early. 

All crap teams have to play in cup matches early in the season 

[Ryy]

Begovic, Aluko, Nelson, Okoli, Woyo, Page, Hamza, Alves, Monga, Daka, Silko Thomas

As formations go, having a keeper at right-back is certainly innovative 👍

[Fox92]

Some of these teams listed are to inexperienced. We don't want to go so weak, they have started the season well. We need to take this serious and get through.

[RowlattsFox]

Nelson and Monga start and I'd be satisfied. Because our options in midfield are so weak we may as well give Page a go too.

I'd like Fatawu to continue to build form but we can't take that risk, so probably be McAteer. Hopefully Bilal isn't close to a move because he needs to build some form. 

 

Jakub

 

Choudhury 

Nelson

Anyone - Okoli is the one I'd want to nail it down but soon he looks like he might he has a poor game

Like the look of this, Imagine it will be a bit of mix though from Sunday

[RowlattsFox]

Don't see the point in playing Begovic, other than just protecting Jakub from any potential injury.
