    Is that a prediction? Wouldn't mind that line up.

    Probably a reasonably safe prediction given how many players we have out injured

    Yeah the line up kind of picks itself given the amount of key players out.

    Only debate was whether to go full pub team with Cedric instead of Tomi/Kiwior.

    Vieira/Havertz was a question as well but I’d rather the German be given the opportunity to find some form.

    Cedric is doing an Ozil, simply hanging around because he doesn’t want to lose the ridiculously generous wages he’s on. I doubt there’s any chance he gets game time unless injuries get really, really bad

    Jorginho and Elneny won’t give our defence much protection against pace but they offer variety with Elneny in the holding role and Jorginho using his passing to get the attacking players in the game.

    Nelson and Smith Rowe deserve more game time than they are currently getting

    This should def. be about giving under-used players minutes, nothing else

    Yep that’s usually what the league cup has been about historically

    There’s an argument for playing more first teamers in the business end of the tournament (though mainly only if we have nothing else going on for us in terms of trophy hunts)

    But third round? I want to win, but I’ll sleep just as soundly if we get slaughtered.

    Starting XI: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Kiwior, Jorginho, Havertz, Smith Rowe, Nelson, Sagoe Jr, Nketiah.

    Subs: Hein, Cedric, Sweet, Walters, Zinchenko, Elneny, Odegaard, Cozier-Duberry, Jesus.

    I thought Sanogo was back for a split second.

    Be intradesting to see who plays more advanced out of Havertz and ESR. I'd assume Havertz plays the CM position just to build familiarity with it but fuck know with Arteta.

    Who is Sagoe and how long has his son been playing for us?
