WHU team Vs Newport County?
Let's hope he doesn't make wholesale changes for this. It's hard to choose between what you think he should put out, to what you think he will put out.

Good selection and job done.

Shame about Antonio. Again down to luck? warm up? not selection.

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
FMOB, of course Antonio should have started, 30 minutes Saturday.

Can't see into the future, injuries happen all the time.

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
scorch, when was he going to get a game if it wasn't tonight? he hasn't started a game for close to three weeks, and yarmolenko is probably more prone to a bad injury than antonio. diangana out on loan has limited the options, and it doesn't look like he rates holland who could have featured tonight

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
He could tear a hamstring at any time. But he tore in in a game where the debate is all about what players you might not wish to risk because we should have enough to win without them.

If it was Haller or Rice instead of Antonio, we’d be proper fucked. Luckily he popped them on the bench as he should have done.

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
no, you're the one saying 'it's only antonio'. i'd start him every game, but the manager hadn't picked him since the city game and even substituted him in that match. he can tear a hamstring any time

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
In case he tears a hamstring

Sure it was 'only' Antonio, but he's been really good thus far- difference maker against Watford- and will now be a miss for sometime.

Wilshere constantly gives the ball away

Takashi Miike 9:51 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
he hadn't started a game since the man city game, how the fuck was it a risk playing a player who wants to play?

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
What's just happened to Antonio is precisely the reason you have to consider not risking your most important players in matches like this.

He's going to be their Manny Oymininmimee, err, isn't he?

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
That’s a slight relief then.
I remember him scoring a few against us for Swansea

riosleftsock 5:53 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
He is just training with them, there's a piece in Alan's daily news for today on it.

dealcanvey 5:52 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Dont think he does. Think he is just training there whilst finding a new club.

crystal falace 5:51 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Pretty sure he's just been training with them not registered to play, was a bit about him in one of the Newspaper threads recently about Spanish and Italian teams looking to sign him as a free agent

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Didn’t realise Wilfred Bony played for Newport.
This is a potential banana skin and I am optimistically nervous.

When is the kick off?

Far Cough 5:19 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
3–0 in the Fifth Round of the 1968–69 FA Cup

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Mansfield is my earliest recollection of being knocked out by a so called "minnow"

rumford 5:01 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Back in the day we always played our strongest teams and more often than got beat by the the so the called smaller teams.Which suggests the our star players didn't fancy the battle.
Mixing it up a bit may work in our favour who knows.

crystal falace 4:20 Tue Aug 27
Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
Roberto

Zabaleta
Balbuena
Diop
Johnson

Sanchez
Snodgrass
Wilshere

Yarmolenko
Ajeti
Fornals

Re: WHU team Vs Newport County?
i can see the logic of not wanting to risk Fabianski at this point in the season.

said before that i'd like to see the back 4 remain the same for the sake of continuity.
otherwise i'd expect Sanchez, Ajieti, Fornals and Yarmolenko to all start.
maybe a midfield 3 of Sanchez, Noble and Fornals.
