Agreed,strong team is must, let's keep winning games, our squad is now strong enough that we can two or three without weakening the line up (bar Pelle and Forster), so we will still be strong for Hull
Koeman does cups...there is no way he will field a second string side...no more than a couple of changes.
@ryanbertrand3: FIFA tournament on the coach.. Live draw just been done .. Let the games commence. First up Bayern vs man utd ( me and @jack_cork vs @tobyalderweireld and Dusan) http://instagram.com/p/usw0NdhxeO/
Everyone wants to see the strongest side every game until form takes a hit in the busy winter period, then they realise it may have been a mistake, then they forget what they learnt in time for the following season. A team needs to be able to rotate. We will need to rotate.
I think the League Cup is worth the risk because it is the quickest route to a trophy. We could be there in two shakes of a lamb's tail.
True. Especially if a club has any pretensions towards European competition, they must learn the art of successful squad rotation.
Bournemouth have changed about 9 players...can't see us doing that as we have a real hope of winning the trophy.
Has anyone seen the front page of last Saturdays Football Pink? I am told there was an interesting typo?
How long has this squad rotation thing been going on? When I were a lad I don't recall teams playing weak sides in the cup?
There's weak, and then there's teams who have more than eleven strong players. We can rest players without being weak.
