Does he strike a good ball then?

He certainly didn't send out a team or bench to win the game.

No surprise given the kids we have against their experience. If they don't win this their fans will be in melt down.

Their subs are way stronger than ours and they should go on and win this now. Won't be the end of the world.

Disagree.

Given our starting line up and subs I think we've done well to take the tie to extra time.

JWP playing 🙂

Can't argue with that.

Old habits die hard.

Why not - chuck them in and see if any of them show any potential.

Tonda clearly doesn't want another FA Cup game - fair enough really.

Yeah, think we'll do well to win this with the side he's picked.

Yeah Tonda, that's a couple of changes 🙂

This is my take as well. Maybe he's trying to keep Leicester guessing, we'll see.

Eckert said there'll be a couple of changes and went on to talk about Stephens and Wellington needing scans so assume neither of them will play. Can't imagine he'll start Archer up front as main striker after Tuesday so maybe Larin starts. Could be something like; Peretz Bree THB Quarshie Manning Downes Charles Fellows Azaz Scienza Larin

In the press conference Eckert said 'there will be a couple of changes' so assume he's putting out a strong side.

Calm down. I'm merely quoting what Eckert said himself and not in a critical way so not sure why you are spitting such bile 🙂

It wasn't.

Do you think he's bitter? Didn't seem to take the defeat well. Calls us lucky - maybe he should look at the match stats because we came out on top in every aspect. Gave me a good chuckle watching this half wit ranting away.

He's amassed 34 points from his 19 games in charge which would equate to 82 points over a season which is very decent for such a novice.

It's a difficult one because our system falls down badly unless we have a big guy up front and the two we have are struggling with fitness. If we have to start Archer again then chances are we'll see more poor first halves although hopefully not as bad as last night.

Stewart actually got a little flick on the ball leading to Manning's goal so should go down as an assist.

I'm guessing Leicester will have to consider resting some of their better players seeing as they are now in a battle to avoid relegation. If that proves the case then we should be able to field a decent team capable of beating them.

Leicester football club and their fans must feel like they've just had their 6 point deduction extended to 9 after last night's second half. They'd have virtually banked the 3 points at half time with a 3-0 lead 🙂

Unfortunately Archer doesn't fit our style of play. He's better playing on the shoulder of a big man. In fact, he's far less effective than Arma was as a centre forward playing through the middle.
