Was thinking the same thing. Likely a couple of first team players will have to start
Possible line up:
Turner
Cedric Tomiyasu Holding Tierney
Elneny ESR
Marquinhos Viera Martinelli(?)
Eddie
Is Nelson out long term? Suspect ESR will play as a false 9 if he does play. And has Sambi Lokonga left?
Requires good rotation here, and none of the usual starting 11 playing. But I'm not sure whether Mikel will rotate the whole team. I have it on good authority that ESR will play 60/70 minutes.
Is this so Bobby
I heard (from someone in the know; NOT Bobby) that he'll play 60 minutes No More, No Less.
Bloody hate being the last game played in the 3rd round draw, feels like we miss out on all the fun of the 3rd round weekend. The draw for the 4th round will be made before we play...takes away the excitement. Why can't the FA go retro and get all games played by Sunday and the draw made at 12.30pm Monday afternoon?
Also, I bloody well hope the curse of the all white kit dosen't strike again!
That's an absolutely fucking horrendous draw We need to tread carefully here..win tomorrow and we set up a tie at city(they'll stiffen the hole ooty the rentboys) If we go there and lose heavily which we may well do,it could have an adverse affect on our League campaign.

Totally agree - I lost interest in the cup at about 4.15pm yesterday and we haven’t even played yet!
