Yup - how did I forget him!

Let's not forget that we should get back a "fresh" Ings, Valery, Lemina, Austin and possibly Bertrand Saturday... I'd go something like... Gunn Cedric Vestergaard Bednarek Targett Romeu JWP Slattery Elyounoussi Long Redmond

Cant believe he's still only 27.

TBF, Long was a decent little player under Koeman without being outstanding.

Thought he did well Sat - and now Hojbjerg has a fight to get back into the side, and you could also argue that Lemina is now surplus to requirements... An area to keep an eye out for, but great to see JWP stepping up when he's been needed to. Fair play.

Personally if I go, I'll probably go up on the Friday and stay with a mate in Manchester, do a night out on Sat in Manchester and then back home Sunday. Timings are a real pain for this.

Not even sure even counting the crap spending and the manager compensation how we have no money to spend. We have basically been running at a profit for the last 5 years, other clubs out spend us and carry on out-spending us with lesser revenues. Either other clubs are massively overspending, or we have money leeking out of the club somewhere; probably into Gao's pockets.

Sounds like agent stuff to me.

Used to be the rule for sure.

They beat the better teams and lose to the sh!t ones, so we've got a great chance.

Ta. Kings Head looks decent.

Any recommendations for pubs? Will be getting there early doors for a bit of a day out.

I would have left work early to get there and gone if not on TV, but will probably just watch on TV now.

Yup - and we should only let them both go if we have someone else lined up before. Can't imagine Ralph H would let the club weaken his squad losing those two without at least one replacement

Would be happy to see him and Gabbiadini go, as long as we bring in a new striker. Should have enough with the below. NEW Ings Long Gallagher Obafemi

WOnder whether we'd be able to get him on loan.

A bit random. Would make more sense if we had two keepers that were struggling, but we're pretty strong in that department. Maybe the club think the only way we can get anyone else to buy him, is to put him in the shop window.

Its a great draw, a new ground and a proper cup tie. About time rather than getting Palace / Arsenal / Sunderland. So inevitably we'll end up losing to Derby or I won't be able to get a ticket to Accrington Stanley!

3 poor strikers bought in the last 3 Jan windows, Jan is never a good time to buy, but highlights the issues we've had for some time now (goals!) Would be nice to hear the odd rumour, guess it is reliant on getting enough out the door.

Mate reckons they should have Arnautovic back for Thursday... Would go same team I think. This website seems to think Hojbjerg and Romeu are both one yellow away...it may not have been updated but does say that the next game is West Ham... http://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/discipline/suspensions -----------------McCarthy---------------- ---Bednarek--Vestergaard---Yoshida--- Valery----------Romeu-----------Targett --------Hojbjerg-----Armstrong--------- -----------Redmond--Ings--------------- Difficult to make a case for anyone else just walking into the team after 2 wins. Will certainly be interesting when Cedric and Bertrand return and back fully fit. There's clearly a few that are either injured, on their way or just haven't impressed Ralph since he's come in... Bertrand, Cedric, Hoedt, JWP, Davis, Elyounoussi, Gabbiadini... Probably only about £500K a week we're paying that lot...

Everywhere. So many pubs here. Starting in head of steam at the station Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I’m a big fan of Lemina. Just not sure that a midfield of Hojbjerg and Lemina offers enough protection, for me Romeu starts most weeks as we’re less likely to concede, even if Lemina is our “best” player it’s a difficult one for sure. Nice to now have options and players fighting for their places again.

On train to Huddersfield now. Any news on team? Redmond mainly? COYS!

------------------McCarthy ------Bednarek--Yoshida--Vestergaard-------- Valery------Romeu----Hojbjerg--------Targett ----Armstrong-------------------Long---------- --------------------Ings------------------------ Assuming Redmond is unavailable which would be a big blow IMO. COYS!!!

There is also a chance that we might let him go to a team beneath those teams...Leicester will need a keeper at some point, West Ham as they try and break the top 6
