Here are the lineups from our last 3 games, to give an idea of who might start:
Sutherland; Love, Grimshaw, Dalley, Rowley; Weir, Pearson, Rudge, Daehli; Januzaj; Wilson. Gollini; Love, Grimshaw, Dalley, Rowley; Barmby, Pearson, Rudge, Daehli; Januzaj; Byrne Sutherland; Grimshaw, Dalley, Ioannou, Evans; Weir, Pearson, Rudge, Daehli; Januzaj; Wilson I'd guess we'll see: Gollini
Love Grimshaw Dalley Rowley Pearson Rudge Weir Januzaj Daelhi Wilson |

Agreed about Rothwell, I have a feeling they've been keeping Ioannou in cotton wool especially for this game though, funny feeling he'll start as he's clearly our most talented defender, would be a huge bonus if he plays.

Not sure... he made his comeback in the last game, albeit that he got 10 minutes, and there's been another week since then, plus perhaps a behind closed doors friendly or two to get some sharpness back.
You could be right as Rudge has done nothing wrong and is a good player... just think that Rothwell is a slightly better player. |

Thank god for the U18s. I really look forward to this every week, while dreading the first team's efforts.
I'd like to see Pereira instead of Barmby, and let Jack have another pop at the U21s. Pereira seems to bring the best out of Daehli. A front 4 of those two and Januzaj playing behind Wilson is the definition of

Should also be noticed that this Burnley-side is quite poor - they have 7 wins and 4 defeats against quite poor opposition and only have 3 players who are second-years. They had a very good side last year which went out against Blackburn in the semi - but then they practically had a full team of second-year players Their leading scorer Jason Gílchrist played for City for 10 years before being released - and he has scored 16 in 12 matches apparently. He is also a huge United-fan according to himself! |

I suppose you're right. It'd just be a shame if Pereira doesn't get any games along the way, and this is surely going to be one of our easiest in the cup. I don't really mind either way, though - that's the nice thing about our U18s, they're all fucking brilliant.

Cant wait for this.
Starting Line up according to Peter Bolton on Twitter; Gollini, Love, Rowley, Grimshaw, Ioannou, Pearson, Barmby, Weir, Wilson, Januzaj, Daehli. Subs; Rudge, Sutherland, Byrne, Dalley, Gorre. Rudge unlucky to miss out but Weir has been excellent this year and fully deserves his start. Shame no Rothwell or Perriera, both must be injured. Im guessing; --------------Gollini-------------- Love---Grimshaw-Ioannou---Rowley ----------Pearson--Weir---------- Barmby------Januzaj----------Daehli --------------Wilson------------- Hope this talented team does itself justice tonight. |
