ABH 613 2.7k Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Not too impressed with Adomah being left on the bench, probably needs a rest but he's the most dangerous player we have Maybe it's to keep him from catching the eye of a prem team. Let's hope Williams and emnes have a outstanding game today :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boroboy1980 6 839 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I'm not happy. I was under the impression we were taking the cup seriously and would be fielding our strongest team. I think keeping the winning (or not losing) mentality is important, as us keeping our strongest 11 getting more games together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Karanka really knows his strongest 11 yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adomah is the only player that is a dead cert that has been left out and l williams is the only player that wouldnt normally play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borodane 8,562 28.2k Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Decent lineup for a cup game. Adomah need a wee rest and this is the time for Luke Williams to show himself to karanka. This is also a good opportunity for Rhys to show that he can perform against a prem side. Hope he puts on a good show to raise his price if a desperate prem team likes what they see.

Onme'eadson 44 424 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Interesting team. Not our strongest, but will give Karanka an opportunity to check out L. Williams (and R. Williams at centre back) in a relatively low pressure environment. Hoping for a win but I'd rather we were knocked out than taken to a replay. Why?

Guest Changing Times 0 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Looks like I'm missing this as I'm a bit under the weather. Shame as I love the cups, especially the FA Cup and was really looking forward to this one. The team looks like a decent selection to me. Clearly we were going to rest one or two people and it gives Karanka an opportunity to have a good look at someone like Luke Williams, which is a good thing. I might have even rested one or two others to give fringe players a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p_mards 1,913 8.6k Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I'm really glad Adomah is being rested/protected. Luke Williams should suit the LW role of cutting in to create and shoot so I'm looking forward to see how he does. Hopefully he can be encouraged by Ledesma taking his opportunity and stake a claim for a first team spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think keeping the winning (or not losing) mentality is important, as us keeping our strongest 11 getting more games together. It's not exactly a million miles away from our best team. Main and Juke have been consistently rotating since Kamara got injured. Adomah might need a rest, and L.Williams might have come on leaps and bounds for all we know. The keeper situation is probably our best remaining option. And R.Williams, though rightly questioned greatly on so many fronts, can be a very good CB and it's probably a good opportunity for AK to see him play a competitive match there. Plus Woodgate is our high risk player, and was rightly rested imo (assuming he's not injured). I'm delighted with the line up. And feeling positive about the game too.
