    Interesting that Digne is captain. Thought Onana would get a rest and that this might be a game Elliott gets a full 90. Glad Garcia is back on bench. No Alysson?

  2. Happy to see Barkley start. Need to draw on his experience while our midfield is threadbare. I guess he’s playing more advanced?

  3. I’m actually excited for Barkley to get a lot of time. I think he looks good when I’ve seen him in the past year or so. Pulling for him.

  4. Decent balance of rotation and strength. Without Joelinton or Bruno for Newcastle I really like our chances here. Shame about Alysson but if we can get ourselves in a strong enough position to see Kone then that would be great.

    Let’s get that fifth round spot locked in!

  5. Barkley looked great when we came on against Brighton, calm on the ball and quick feet. Think he bags an assist to Tammy today.

    That bench.

    If it’s going tits up, he can change it.

    Love to see it.

    Great see depth in the squad for games like this. People saying to throw the FA Cup are small team fans. Our ‘second team’ are more than good enough, but we can call on our first if we need to. Very strong. Love it

    Kone will probably come on. I doubt Rodd and Onana play 90. Garcia probably comes on an Bogarde moves to MF. Sancho in late. Definitely a good enough squad to win.

    Solid. I like it. Look at who is injured. Look at the bench. We have a very strong squad of players.

  9. this is fine, just praying for no injuries from this. this will be bittersweet with ramsey back at VP for the first time.

    alysson missing is interesting, i’d assume that’s injury related.

  10. Wow, in my head, prem and then Europa are most important, but didn’t think it would feel this weak in FA cup. We can still do it so fuck them, come on the Villa boys, show em!

    Part of me feels they will want this more than us though 🤷🏻‍♂️

  11. No cms on the bench concerns me. Yeh I know we can move players around and end up with a Barkley Bogarde midfield but it’s risky.
