Horrible set of creatures. That League Cup final was disgusting because of them. Add to that printing fake notes off with Barry’s face on when we signed him - pathetic.

We have lost the last two games in domestic competition let’s hope Pep wises up for this one and picks a team that can function

Got to get the league sorted. 2 winnable games at villa snd palace. More concerned about palace with the chumps league so a must win tonight

[london blue 2]

Excited and scared. Absolute must win this!

[Dubciteh]

So we have cup final and then psg in out next two games. What do we do tonight? Full strength? It makes last sat rotation even more confusing. We should have gone full strength there, rotate here and then full strength for spurs and psg.

I think he goes full strength tonight. Then the reserves for the cup final(which is an abs travesty) and then full strength got psg.

Thoughts?

Tonight is more important than Sunday.

Winning a cup is nice. Winning a cup without no fans in the stadium (when you've won loads) is not something that overly excites.

Won't lose any sleep on Sunday if we lose. Don't think my nerves could handle going down to a 5 point lead.

I disagree. I think a cups more important. Mainly because we can lose tonight and still be relatively comfortable esp with their fixture list. 8 points with 6 games to go is abs massive not to mention our goal difference. There is no chance we take less than 10 points from next 18 possible and the rags take maximum points.

Win the cup and get over the line is better than losing the cup and comfortably winning league imo.

Put the best team out and fuckin bulldoze the Brummie twats

Respectfully disagree. A cup final with the chance of one of the three domestic pots on offer against a PL match, albeit an important one but by no means crucial, is no contest IMO.

The club is geared up to winning trophies. One is on offer on Sunday. That’s why the defeat to Chelsea was so unforgivable in mine and so many fans eyes. All the hard work of the earlier rounds and the last stage is in sight, only to throw it away.

That’s not to say tonight’s game is not important. It is. If nothing else but to regain momentum and give confidence before Sunday. Resting players now is just a kop out bullshit excuse. These are professional athletes physically trained to tip top levels. They can handle 3 games in the next 8 days. But not at the expense of a trophy

Agree no excuses tonight with out of form and ring rusty players, some of the team selections of late are nothing short of bizarre, we need a performance tonight to regain lost momentum

I swear to thunderfuck if baldie plays Mendy I’ll fucking lose it .

[PeterParker]

Play the best players and if he wants to rotate, then he can do it with 2-3 max players.

This - for the rest of the season

Yes please, this should be blindingly obvious. No need for EIGHT changes.
If he is hell bent on extreme rotation he might as well field the EDS, more or less same thing as eight changes.

To me this is a massive game, full strength smash this shower, get the points on the board.
