What are your thoughts, to weak, to strong?
#FFC #FULHAMFC #EMIRATESFACUP
Carvalho - interesting.
Overall a stronger team than I was expecting.
Sad to see no Neeskens but licking my chops at Mitro and AK together. Hope there are sparks!
Thought Frank would get a rest for sure
3-5-2 or 3-4-3 with Onomah on the left?
Interesting how the formation will work 4-4-2?
Stronger team than I expected. I suspect it will be the regular lineup with BDR as a wingback.
Rodak
Adarabioyo Hector Ream
BDR - Lemina - Anguissa - Bryan
Kamara - Mitro - Onomah

Think there might be some early changes to keep one or two fresh for Wednesday.
I'd prefer to see Kebano over Kamara, watch him prove me wrong by getting a hat trick. Hopefully Mitro gets a goal today and Anguissa doesn't have to play the full 90.

I hope that's how we are set up, makes sense.
Ugh....I think thats too strong and some of those players need a rest before some of arguably the biggest games of our season (or at least most important). Risking Tosin and Anguissa could really undo our season quite harmfully against a very physical Burnley side.
Really thought Mitro, Reid,Tosin, Bryanand and Anguissa would be held back to ensuret hey were fit for Wednesday.
Too strong. Should have rested more.
Don't talk nonsense,taking the Cup seriously is Scotty,and quite right.
If he fielded a more weakened side some of you would moan about that..Never pleased.

Remember there are 5 subs allowed. I imagine all of those will be taken off at some point.
Burnley are playing more second string players than us I think

I wouldn't. League is the priority and we have a large enough squad with players who barely play to field a side. Plus, would of loved to see a range of youth attackers to see if any could step up to fill the void. Say what you want for the FA cup, but its not the priority. Not even close to it. Anguissa picks up a serious injury today and we'll chat about after Brom and Brighton about how missed he was and how wreckless playing such an important player in the FA cup was.
I would have liked to see Tete playing together with Mitrovic.
Mitro needs game time but regardless of score I would take big frank off at half Time

No problem - Seri is ready to step in 086.gif
Imagine with both Ream and Hector starting we're almost guaranteed to concede. Hopefully Mitro bags a brace and puts parker in his place. I think Parker's done a lot of very good stuff this season, but his one biggest mistake definitely has to be leaving out a proven goalscorer in mitro when we're desperately in need of goals. A front three of BDR, Lookman and Mitro would score more regularly than with Cavaleiro.

Utter Tosh,this game today is more important than Wednesday,and that's how the manager see's it.
Players played every game years ago for the love of it.
And I don't give a hoot about the Brighton game till it happens on Wednesday,today is what matters...Stop fretting and support your team,that is if you really support them😉

Firstly, you're utterly deluded.
Secondly, of course I'm supporting and want us to win. I just want us to win Wednesday and against Brom even more.
All this nonsense risky players who could pick up an injury...So?
They could be rested today and then get their leg broken in first minute against Brighton,what happens..happens....All this Buts ifs whys...🤔
Why am I deluded?
Because I agree with the manager and want to win every game....

Agree. We should take it seriously

Because if he cared THAT much, Ream and Hector wouldn't be playing and Areola would be in a goal among other changes. But that's my point really. He's rest some key players but not maybe the biggest one in Anguissa. And of course he wants to win, we all do (or should).

I agree with mince, the FA Cup is important and Scott knows what he is doing, stop wrapping players up in cotton wool it's ridiculous. Players get injured more at training than in a match, and some of these players did not play a full game in the last match and won't play a full game today.
Good to see the match is being taken seriously, breeding a generation of wimps.
Never seen so much moaning on here.

Enough been said about it,as I've already stated Zambo could be rested today and then get his leg broken first minute Wednesday.
In Scotty I trust....Coyw
OMG; Hector what happened to him ???
Oh dear
Absolutely painful to watch...

A pointless comment repeated then. Regardless of this, what a dreadful performance so far.
this is worse than the start of the season, embarrassing so bad ....
How many times can we give the ball away? Lots!!!

I just turned if off. Just brutal. A bit surprised to see several assumed starters for this Wed huge match in this game.
Best thing I can say is that we're only 1 goal down.
To all of you who thought he was playing too strong a side.....Why aren't we beating them????
Funny game. We don't seem too interested.

We play like this in the next couple of games Brighton & WBA will both beat us
we desperately need some changes - Odoi for Hector, Kebano for Kamara and Carvahlo for Mitro. They couldn't be any worse
Anyone that suggest starting Kamara over Cav needs to give their head a wobble, he runs around like a headless chicken with the touch of an oil tanker and that's at his best, other than that he's completely anonymous.
Michael Hector has imploded, gone from being a really solid CB to shying out of tackles and being positionally blind, wtf has happened?
Just rub salt in Brentford are 1 up against leicester

Where's Ben?
I've been saying consistently that Kamara is barely French Ligue 2 standard. He has no business being in a PL squad.
Hi Mince, much like some of your other points you thought were clever, this one is seriously lacking too. No one said the side was too strong, we just said some players like Anguissa have looked a little leggy of late and needed a rest for some really important games coming up. Probably like Andersen, Lookman and Reed are getting.
As for why we're losing, look at the gulf in quality in attacking players Burnley have compared to us. That is probably why we're on the losing end. That and having two CB's in Ream and Hector who seem to not know how to defend anymore. So we have a serious lack of depth and a gulf in quality between our starting CB's and squad members.
Hector is a funny one,has done the same at the clubs he been at.
Started great for Aberdeen,ended up benched,same at Reading and Frankfurt.
Maybe lacks confidence in his own ability.

They've conceded 5 less than us too.
They've been in a good run of form recently, nicking results by keeping clean sheets. When we keep clean sheets we don't tend to score, whereas they tend to grab a goal to earn them 3 points. That's the difference.

Simple question, because I think you've misinterpreted what I meant by too strong. If you take Tosin and Anguissa out of this side, do you weaken it?

Burnley have scored less goals than us this season...
Yet have more points and at least 5 strikers that can start compared to our one striker who hasn't been fit all season and make shift striker who is actually a winger.

He may be a headless chicken at time but at least he is moving, more than i can any for some off them in the first half today

But the additional points are down to being able to keep teams out, nothing to do with the quality of their attackers? They've scored less goals than us because they've got worse attacking players, they could have 100 of them and still score less than us, doesn't make them any better equipped
Not at all. There attackers are just as vital to them as a team as their defenders. They work hard from the front and have that in all of their strikers. We don't. Mitro wouldn't work in their team no more than he does in ours. And they can keep them fresh for healthy rotation. If we had one or two of their strikers, I think we'd be comfortable right now.
Totally inept.
