Pre-match views from the forum:
AberGooner: “With Newcastle coming up I’m not expecting a full strength line up but I hope we’ve enough to get past West Ham with the team we put out.
Looking at the teams left its between us and Liverpool to win this.”
Tom Mix: “Can’t Cedric play? We really have very little on the bench to rotate the defence with Tierney gone and Timber out for the season. I wish he’d blood that Reuell kid. Kiwior to start for Saliba this time. What happened to Nwaneri and playing a couple of academy kids in the League Cup?
Jorginho and Elneny central midfield surely? Nelson, ESR, Vieira and Trossard to start. Until it’s clear how long Jesus will be out for need to be a bit more careful with Eddie, wouldn’t play him all game.
If we get to the semis we can treat this seriously but even with the weakened field I can easily see the refs gifting this to Liverpool if they play us.”
