FA Cup team

[FCBEARS]

DF might make some changes:

We need some fresh energy and recovered legs on the pitch. There are a few players after long-term injuries who need minutes.

The most importance topic is that we are there with a strong starting line-up without risking injuries.

All out

Zimmermann
Pukki
Cantwell
Idah
Xavi

McLean positive for COVID so out too

Mumba is able to play but will not make it to 90 minutes.

 

[FCBEARS]

DF did say that Barden was his cup GK but now says that Krul will probably play tomorrow.

He also said don't get excited by Soto he is here for the U23 side - I would rather he was out on loan then play for our u23s:

We have signed Sebastian Soto for our Under-23s . We won't get overexcited with him but everything is possible. We don't want to put too much pressure on his shoulders.

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

I would go

Barden.

Sorenson . Gibson. Omobamidele Mumba.

Tettey. Dowell.

Placheta. Martin. Hernandez

Hugill

 

[FCBEARS]

I would go:

Barden

Mumba
Omobamidele
Gibson
Sorensen

Tettey
Rupp

Placheta
Dowell
Hernandez

Hugill

Subs

McCraken
Aarons
Hanley
Omotoye
Martin
McAlear
Dickson-Peters
Vrancic
Skipp

 

[yellow belly]

I would play Omotoye up front and keep Hugill for the League . Agree that Hanley should be rested

 

[Canary Kevin]

I would go

Barden.

Sorenson . Gibson. Omobamidele Mumba.

Tettey. Dowell.

Placheta. Martin. Hernandez

Hugill

I agree. DG. That's seems to be the best cup set up at this point. Will be nice if we can give young Sorenson a rest in the second half.

 

[yellow belly]

No rest for the back 4 then !

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

Krul

Sorenson . Gibson. Hanley. Aarons

Tettey. Dowell.

Placheta. Rupp .Hernandez

Hugill

 

[screaming canary]

Placheta and Hernandez crossing for Hugill then.
I guess the plan is to score a few then sub players to rest.

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

NORWICH (4-2-3-1): Krul; Aarons, Hanley (C), Gibson, Sorensen; Tettey, Rupp; Hernandez, Dowell, Placheta; Hugill.

Subs: Barden (GK), Omobamidele, Mumba, Skipp, Martin, Vrancic, Buendia, Omotoye

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

I am worried about lack of creativity.

 

[yellow belly]

I am worried about a injury to one of the back four or Hugill

 

[screaming canary]

Is it 5 subs in the cup?
I can't remember.
I do remember when you only got 1.

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

They need protecting and will be in action more as a weak midfield in front of them.

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

we have 8 ( see above post ) but think it could be 9.

 

[Bolshie Budgie]

I am worried about lack of creativity.

in picking the lineup of the defence?

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

Lawro predicts Barnsley v Norwich 1 1
Hope he is wrong

 

[DRAYTON GREEN]

in picking the lineup of the defence?

In that we do not have any creativity in midfield.

 

[Bolshie Budgie]

They need protecting and will be in action more as a weak midfield in front of them.

Totally Tettey and rested Rupp? Thats awesome!

 

[Bolshie Budgie]

In that we do not have any creativity in midfield.

just teasing. Its get it to the wingers, run at 'em with pace and lob into the middle for Hug.

BTW. I am looking forward to the Superman hatrick
