Team for today...

Post by bfccrazy » Sat Feb 18, 2017 10:26 am

Heaton
Darikwa, Keane, Tarkowski, Flanagan, Gudmundsson, Westwood, Barton, Arfield
Gray, Vokes

Pope injured in training yesterday and Heaton called back into squad.

With a team that could easily compete in the Championship I can only see a good Burnley win.

I'm opting for a 5/6-1 to Burnley type match with the Imps just not being able to match our fitness later in the game.

Certainly a strong side. If we have the game wrapped up by the hour, get Gray and Barton off.

You'd hope it was and that we could go into "training ground" mode. But the cup always springs surprises and we could have a real battle on.

Hopefully he can get on for a decent cameo - similar to Jays season in the "Capital Punishment" - maybe even bag a Fulham type goal..

Theyre a physical side but not bad either quite quick. Expect our fitness to count second half.

So post game:
Everyone relatively happy with this line up pre-game no mass objections. Cup team has fluctuated somewhat but generally a mix of 1st team & squad players who've gotten us the results that lead us this far.
Which is I feel let down more by the players complacent and lackluster performance of the players than anything Dyche setting us up for this game.

Was as strong a line up as we expected. Should have been enough.
