We patched up and battled on playing Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday. I have wondered whether they would throw their game at Wolves in an attempt to unclog the fixture list for February, March and April. They won't sacrifice Europe as they believe they are European royalty but at the same time, Klipperty needs to put a trophy on the sideboard. I'm not sure he can afford to throw away a chance to do so. In the meantime, we have the opportunity to rest SOME players in both domestic competitions. We have been very fortunate with the draws, we rarely weaken too much, so lets put a decent side that is more than capable of winning. We can reassess if we get through, based on who we get and what the league situation is at the time. Don't throw away any chance of some glory. Who knows we might need it later.

I think this type of game is ideal to help him build his match sharpness back up rather than a high intensity PL game.

In truth I don't know what Luke Bolton does but I had to look on the squad list for number eleven.
What was that other little kid called who came on for a bit in the Cup and looked like he'd played for ever? Sanchez??

His kid brother is in the EDS. He was on the bench in our last cup game.

I want it, no questions asked, but we are still in 4 competitions and our squad is not fit enough to win them all. So, my 2 cents, we should sacrifice it.
