Do you think we should rest all those that played yesterday so they are fresh for Saturday?

Oh don’t

But go on then

Yes and no

They need to be fresh yes but they also need to play together more so No

I don’t know

I’m taking my boots just in case

Green

Jordan North Russell ball Stuart hunt Humphrey’s

Bertie bella

Jimmy Anderson Jay Rod

JJ Watt Mike Smith

Nobody
Knows who will still
Be here by the
Window
End

A 4-4-1-1

Whoever is due to play on Saturday shouldn't start against Wolves

Not a lot of options unfortunately. Debuts for Worrall and Humprheys, maybe give minutes to some youngster?

Youth team

In all seriousness I wouldn’t play many who are due to play Saturday I’d go for something like this but again some may have left by then.

Green
Sambo McNally Humphrey’s Dodgson (is he still here)
Massengo Egan-Riley
Agyei Masara Hountondji
Jay

I couldn’t figure out who was fit, who had niggles and who had left to come up with a second string which, a week or so again was an absolute doddle.

Let the board decide they seem to know what they are doing

Looked like the Carabao Cup team got played yesterday

No bugger else does.

I'd go with the strongest 11 we have by Wednesday

Green
Sambo Egan-Riley Humphreys Dodgson
Hugill McDermott
Agyei Masara Hountondji
McNally

The new lad we brought on to play up front at the end on Saturday looked effective so deserves a start.

With the current squad thats basically the youth team then.

Could not be less arsed about the Wolves game.

All about the weekend. Hilarious drama-queenery on this messageboard but it hasn't quite turned toxic yet. A poor performance/defeat against that lot and it will.

I said this on the coach as the team came out
That’s what I expected for Wolves

Just send the ladies team

I'd let the fitness coaches / sports science lot decide.

Youth team/fringe players and then 30 minutes or so to those that aren't match fit but we need for Saturday.

3-4-2-1 as somehow we literally have no wingers any more.

Worrall plays purely for fitness levels.

Pace.

Pace is a goalie

We’ll need a quick right back to keep Koleosho quiet!

We need a win for morale. We can't afford to play a backup team because we don't have one.

Early kick off on Saturday must be the priority and our team selection on Wednesday should reflect that.

Wow, the bitter attempts at humour on this thread are appalling.

Currently leading 2-1 against Stourbridge so might not be a bad idea.

I was planning on attending the Wolves match, but after selling so many players to fuel Pace's fantasy project I have decided not to contribute any of my money to his project.

Pace.

You always need Pace up front.

Would like to see more from our new striker Lucio Macneelio.

The Wolves game is essentially the only pre-season game for what is basically a new squad. We need to play whatever passes for the first XI.

Normally it's a total rest for the first Xl..However if we have a few new signings in the camp, we need to play a full first team for integration purposes.

That's my biggest worry about Saturday,.that lot have got a very settled team and have added some experience and quality..

Don’t care who plays Wednesday right now it’s a match we really don’t need Saturday is far more important for more than one reason. How can anyone pick a team when we don’t know who will still be at the club i would be surprised if SP knows

Gk: Alastair Campbell .... a back 4 of King Charles III, John Kettley, Jordan North & Bertie Bee, midfield Alan Pace, Andy Farrell, Visah and Justine, the Landlady of the " Royal Dyche ... JJ Watt as a target-man with Eric Knowles playing off him, as he's used to picking up " bits and pieces "

Can somebody let me know who is left.

Oh well we will certainly know if Koleosho is Wolves bound if he has not already gone by the time the team is announced

This is either a game we really don't need right now, or an ideal opportunity to play the side that will face rovers.

It'll no doubt fall somewhere in the middle.

There's been a squad list on this site since it was set up, Frank.

There's currently 32 of them left, although some of them will be injured.

Best team possible. Love a cup run!

Hldaky

Vitinho Massenga Brownhill Houtondji
Amdouni
Foster

Worrall and Esteve are presumably the pairing we'll be relying on going forward so this is a great opportunity for them to play together. The midfield clearly didn't function very well at Sunderland so we need the same pairing to work together to try and improve on that. Houtondji is clearly more in need of game time than Koleosho. Rest Jay Rod for Saturday and give Amdouni some minutes.

I always get the feeling with these cup games that if you make too many changes you end up with a really disjointed performance and invariably lose. Losing wouldn't be the end of the world but we need to get something out of the game even if it's just improved understanding between certain players and an opportunity for the coaching staff to see how certain combinations can work.
