Mauricio: "They are close to being back with the squad, but not for Wednesday, unlucky for them and for us
I'm still angry at Redknapp for his selection five years ago when we lost to Woolwich in the league cup. Anything but our strongest team is unforgiveable(if we lose)
Cazorla and Gabriel's red cards count for League cup so they are out I do believe.
Also, i know they are in the minority on here but anyone suggesting a weaker squad and not playing our best 11 can get the fuck out and go find another team to support.
It's the scum at home, under the lights in the cup. I don't care if this is the Jihadhi John invitational, this is a dream fixture, fuck an easy ride. It's Woolwich at home, twice in a season which is a rare blessing and we have to field the best team we can whilst crippling a few regular starters for them to really mess up their season.

Yeah they ask for membership number and postcode.
Ah yes, the season that we were in Champions League and got to QF. That game took place a week after one and a week before another CL tie. I was at the match and I can't recall ANYONE moaning about the team selection. In fact, the crowd were singing right to the end of a defeat (not helped by some barking penalty decisions).
Europa is different, I'd expect a very strong team for tomoz.
For the record I meant if you had to rest players in one or the other, I'd rather it be the City game. For those who think they need the rest; this isn't the game for resting.
I'd actually want us to play our best team in both.
[formation=4231, Lloris, Walker, Alderwiereld, Vertonghen, Davies, Dier, Alli, Lamela, Eriksen, Son, Kane][/formation]
Same team that played Palace with Eriksen in for Chadli in my opinion. We made so many chances on Sunday and always looked the better team. Palace threatened a couple of times but we always looked comfortable. One thing about Ozil is that he hates big tackles and goes quiet in games with a tough tackler in midfield. I think Dier could have him all game. I couldn't fault Lamela's work rate on the weekend, he gets back so much. Eriksen added that little bit extra we needed on Sunday.
They'll be without Mertersacker, Gabriel and Cazorla which is big. Nothing more I'd like than a win and for Kane to open his account.

This is unquestionably the most important game of the season so far. Nothing else has even been close. A win here will get us absolutely flying going forward.
Me too, haven't been able to concentrate on anything at work this week and will be out the door, as early as possible tomorrow. I cannot wait for this now COYS!!
Qarabag at home?
