She looks fairly pro. Well done that lass
Like who?
Beat me to it....again really!
Wycombe's first goal was one of the better goals you'll see this season technique wise. Their third was pretty decent too. I'm glad they didn't get a replay but I can see why many think they deserved one.
I don't think it really matters we didn't hammer them. Sissoko, Wimmer, Winks, Davies, Trippier have already shown they're useful depth in the PL so you don't find out a huge amount about their ropey performance today really.
Son was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch, I don't get why people like him. I think there's a touch of confirmation bias from last season.
Ultimately we're in the hat and that's all that matters. COYS.

I don't see much wrong with our depth to be honest.
I think the difference being that changing a whole 11 is always going to be difficult. They have never played together before. The idea of rotation isn't to change a full team, it's to have some strong players in there but resting those who may need the rest and bringing in players who need games.
You play Alli because he installs FEAR into the opposition. I'm all for youth getting game time, the likes of Onomah and N'Koudou but they strike no fear into the opposition. Wycombe were probably loving the fact that Onomah was playing to be honest so they can get a bit aggressive in there, same with N'Koudou, the full back was all over him and bullying him. Sissoko, for all the negatives is still a damn powerful player and you wouldn't want him running at you. I put Son up front because that was Poch's plan from the start.
I never like the idea of resting a full squad and playing 10 or 11 different players. We got away with it today but to be honest if we got another League Two or below club in the next round, I still wouldn't start the line up we did today.

Would have been good to see. You have the back three that we're favouring nowadays. You rest Alderweireld anyway, you rest the two full backs but give solid Premier League full backs in Trippier and Davies a game. You play Winks and Dembele because we have no other central midfielders worthy of playing and it gives Wanyama a rest as well as giving Winks more experience and learning off Dembele who can do with games to make sure he's getting fitter and fitter.Dier - CCV - Wimmer

What you on about ?
...with 10 players.
You can only have one, you can't prioritise 2.

FA Cup then. Long overdue.
It's probably not from firmin house Tottenham where kashkets old man is a tailor
& how much energy has he got. Sprinting at the end for the winner in the 96th min.
I bet he is still running around & buzzing about now.
We were involved in a cup classic.
No need to over-analyse it.
A bang in form, good side put up an inspired performance at WHL.
Luckily, we got through it.
Congratulations to Wycombe on an incredible performance. But we move on.
Tuesday is us.
