Don't think any of us could have predicted that.

Nice use of squad

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:48 pm**

Harsh to drop Taylor.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:48 pm**

Can they do it on a cold February night in Millwall?
Not sure it is dropped so much as rotated.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:48 pm**

Twine time!!

Al-Dakhil replaces Taylor too. I imagine because we want to dominate the ball more than Saturday, and Millwall’s strikers aren’t as physical.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:48 pm**

A strong lineup with solid options from the bench.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:48 pm**

Interesting team news, 4 changes,

Al Dakhil for Taylor (harsh)
Twine for Cork
Vitiniho for Tella
Zaroury for JBG

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:49 pm**

Wow. Now that is stretched beyond the limit

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:49 pm**

Having been at Luton, have to say Charlie Taylor is unlucky not to start, but on a positive it shows the faith VK has in Al Dakhill v a dangerous and physical side. Good bench again. Obafemi to score the winner

I guess some of the team from the Luton match need a bit of a rest, it was a tough game

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:49 pm**

We’ve no option but to us our squad depth, with such a heavy schedule

Well, we've already done it on a cold night in Stoke !

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:50 pm**

At least Cork won't get booked. In the first half, anyway.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:50 pm**

Surprised Taylor isn't playing with it likely to be another tough, physical game.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:50 pm**

That’s what I call rotation. Let’s hope it all gels. Come on you Clarets.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:53 pm**

Suspect we are concerned about their massive cb at set pieces, so we have our 2 tallest cb and Barnes to address.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:53 pm**

It should be an interesting game.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:53 pm**

Glad Vitinho starts, he looked up for it on Saturday, and changed the game!

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:53 pm**

Wow, that’s a surprising line up to say the least. Definitely didn’t expect Taylor and Cork to be dropped/ rotated.

Good to see Tella on the bench though as it means he’s clearly not done his hamstring as a few people posted on Saturday evening.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:56 pm**

Hoping twine as a good game-I see there hat trick hero from the weekend is benched Bradshaw big surprise.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:57 pm**

Average age of starting XI
25 years

If Tella and Foster/Obafemi replaced Roberts (drop Vitinho back to RB) and Barnes, it'd be 23

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:58 pm**

From a Millwall perspective, Bradshaw who scored a hat trick at the weekend is on the bench (slightly tight hamstring apparently) and Burke who’s been in decent form isn’t even in the squad (apparently ill).

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:58 pm**

A bit floored Cork isn't starting against a direct opponent, and also a bit surprised JBG has been rotated for this one - but noone is arguing with VK!

Let's hope it works. Point a decent result tonight.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 6:59 pm**

Always thought Burke was a dangerous player.

I’d have stuck with the experience of Cork/Taylor for this one and done this vs Hudds, but what do I know!

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:03 pm**

No cork. Wow. In Vinny we trust. UTC

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:08 pm**

Vitinho did look fresh and energetic when he came on, so I get that one.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:08 pm**

Vitinho playing on the wing but still 25/1 to score first with Bet365. Skybet seemed to have realised and dropped his odds to 14's. Just put £20 on

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:08 pm**

Cork hasn't hit his early season heights recently, which is surprising with him having a rest and being fresh.

Let's see what these lads can do.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:09 pm**

We have been so used to years of non rotation and total trust in a select few, it is a shock to the system. I am loving the shock of it, every player in the squad is hungry to play and hungry to play well. Good luck to the 11 that start and the subs we will no doubt use. UTC

I just looked at the lineup on FotMob - they have Vitinho in central defence, Dakhil in midfield and Twine right wing.

3-0 Millwall then

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:12 pm**

He's certainly thrown me with that line up!

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:12 pm**

Brownhill
Saville

Cullen
Honeyman

Card doubles on. pay well

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:12 pm**

I hope Twine can now turn up and show that he's more than a free kick specialist

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:15 pm**

What a difference having a good bench, even with 3 key injuries-still remember having Lennon as a striker v Man Utd we were so short, and a few years ago Ward & Arfield were our two CM's v Leicester

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:19 pm**

Interesting line-up to say the least, shows VK has plenty of faith in all the squad to contribute when needed.

Options off the bench if required late in the game as well.

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:26 pm**

The line up suggests Kompany is going to try and run Millwall around a bit more than Luton on Saturday.
Two late blows for Millwall and we are boosted by Tella being fit enough for the bench.
Should still be a tough one at their place

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:27 pm**

Is this the match Twine shines?

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:27 pm**

Evening all from a wet Galway hey what's new , well apart from the line up which shock me .
One think i have to say that we have some firepower on the bench if needed

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:27 pm**

Tallest team available. As mentioned they have a couple of giants and a long throw specialist..

Muric also needs a good night tonight if we're to win..

Fluid system...

Millwall only lost 2 at home this season, 4th best home record in the league, take a draw?

Nope. We have the best away record in the league.

True. The good news is I'm seeing images of Millwall watering their pitch here

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:42 pm**

Evening all, interesting lineup, real opportunity for Twine to show us what he's made of against a decent outfit in Millwall.COYC

Posted: **Tue Feb 21, 2023 7:42 pm**

Looks quite sparse at the den
