Looks like a lovely evening for it anyway, mert - enjoy

it’s not mine mate it’s my nephews!

I'm smelling 541 with McNeil LWB.

Too many changes. This is Moyes of the first spell as in not taking this cup seriously. No wonder we usually go out in the early rounds.

Pickford should at least be on the bench for me. We've got one of the best penalty savers in the business in a game were it could go to penalties. He should be available to go on if it's looking like pens.

pickford on the bench incase we need a goal?

I understand why people are upset with the changes, but that 11 is better than the best 11 Wolves can field.

I think it'll be a safe assumption how it'll go with all those square pegs in round holes. It's the message it sends to the fans as well, no one wants to go Wolverhampton at any time never mind a Tuesday night and that's what's served up. I could understand if it was a significantly weaker oppo, but it ain't.

I’m guessing the only square peg is Coleman at left back. JOB has played much more RB than CB, so can’t really count that one. Team looks ok to me tbh.

He should be there to sub on if it's going to pens. He's the best penalty saver in the league

 

[jazzy]

Bloody hell Davy , what have you done?

Just hope you've got this selection right - far from sure myself

it won’t go to pens

Every manager in every club almost does it .
You have to give players games and give others a break .
Keep players sharp and others a chance to recover.
Hes spot on

Been various mentions on here and elsewhere that Ndiaye was carrying a knock from international duty pre Liverpool.

Myko has been struggling with injury.

Gana’s minutes needs to be managed.

Then everyone’s whinging that Dibling doesn’t play or that Alcaraz isn’t getting on.

And now people crying that we shouldn’t be resting these same players that we know have been carrying knocks and should be starting them 3 days after playing.

 

[ToffeeTim]

it won’t go to pens

I dont think it will either !!

 

[Azza]

5 at the back in the 3rd round of the league cup against a winless Wolves.

Nice one Moist.

 

[Davideeyore]

I am disappointed with the starting XI, but the strength and depth on our bench must be acknowledged, especially in comparison to Wolves' bench.

Moyes far too conservative with changes (from the bench)

 

[Duncan’s Pigeon Loft]

Can’t work out that team. Is it 3 at the back with Coleman and McNeil wing backs?

I’d have just gone all out and played the strongest 11. It’s not like we have European competition to balance out and we’ll be nowhere near relegation

 

[anton66]

Let’s hope he’s tried this line up in training as it’s quite a few changes for a cup competition we desperately need a good run at.

I understand why people are upset with the changes, but that 11 is better than the best 11 Wolves can field.

Is it? If so, please show us exactly how those 11 players line up on the pitch.
