Team v Swansea (Cup Game) - Lurker#3 - 02-11-2026
MOL
Gilchrist Phillips Bielik Styles
MJ Molumby Mowatt Price
Jimoh
Heggebo
Would like to see Jimoh play centrally and price floating from the left. Think Jimoh could offer more of a ball carrying threat on transition centrally and we can protect his lack of defensive instinct in front of M&M.
No excuse to make too many changes as we have clear weeks either side and working on some more attacking solutions is key.

I think you mean v Norwich!
I wouldn't play Mikey unless he's properly fit to start. He's our key man for the rest of the season and we can't afford to aggravate any injury in what is ultimately our least important game for the remainder of the season.

Swansea. Norwich. They're all the same.

Will depend on the injury situations but would play all of Griffiths, Imray (if not cup tied) Whitwell and Bostock and start Dike or Maja.
Would be nice for the Palace lad to get some minutes or it starts to look a bit pointless.

Agreed

I'd be getting some proper minutes into Bostock and Whitwell against another Championship side. Injuries mean we can't rotate too much, especially in defence,
It'll be interesting to see how Ramsay approaches the game. It's a horrible draw against an in form side and a long journey for a squad that are depleted. I love the FA Cup and hate it when we put out weak sides but this season would be justified imo given what's at stake in the league.

Bostock and Whitwell would be definite starters for me to give them a chance to show what they can do. I'm not sure if he'll put Griffiths in or want O'Leary to get more game time with our defenders. Certainly on a couple of occasions last night it looked to me as if communication wasn't always great between goalkeeper and defence.

I'm not sure it's worth a heavily defeat and wholesale changes. I'd look to get some minutes for Griffiths, Bielik, MJ, Bostock and Whitwell, the rest I think picks itself.

Our squad is paper thin and we are still right in the shit. As much as I dislike doing it, this is one for the reserves.
