They are far more likely to get injured on the training pitch than in a match. It’s pretty unusual for a keeper to go off injured during a match. They get a lot more shots fired at them and crosses swung in at them in a training session. I don’t see the logic and it seems unfair on the lad. It's clearly not being dropped. Sol Brynn is on the bench. He's absolutely being kept out in case of a knock or to give Mejias a chance. Exactly the same as when Randolph sat out the League Cup game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ok then, he’s being “rested” not “dropped” after an arduous 7 match season. Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Their defence has been awful lately we'll probably get at least 1 goal the problem is I have visions of Son ripping us apart. No shame in losing to that Spurs side when we're fielding 1 actual CB. Interested seeing how Spence and Coulson fair offensively as well does their pace match up to the higher tier PL because Friend and Barragans sure didn't. I'll predict 3-1 Spurs win hopefully a decent display offensively and Roberts/Nmecha having bright moments. Edited January 5, 2020 by Jamie-H Link to post Share on other sites

Second choice keepers often get cup games. Pears played when Randolph was "rested" and now mejias is playing while pears is "rested" 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,228 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Spurs haven't spared anything today. Was gonna say they've put their second keeper in but Gazzaniga has been playing for them too. This looks like a full strength selection, at least in the first team today. Big test. Link to post Share on other sites

Smogzilla 7,384 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 We always play our 2nd choice keeper in the cup. It looks like Randz is off, so that makes it Meijas. Nothing to see here 2 Link to post Share on other sites
SmogDane 4,052 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I cannot understand how it can come as a big sursprise, that other keepers get their chance in the cups? Mejias also played in the cups last time he was here. It has been like that, that the second keeper gets cup games as long as I can remember. Link to post Share on other sites
