Shame their first leg isn't on Tuesday. I think Dyche is probably under too much pressure to rotate too much.

I don't think Dyche gives a shit.  :)

I'd go;

Martinez

Konsa, Lindelof, Torres, Digne

Bogarde, Barkley

Sancho, Rogers, Bailey

Abraham

Bizot, Wright, Maatsen, Mings, Onana, Luiz, Alysson, Buendia, Watkins

Last night will have taken it out of our lads. Going to have to be priority calls. Onana did zero so he can tog out again. Really could do without seeing Sancho but bit much to throw the Brazilian kid in. Luiz to replace Barkley after 60

Bizot, Bogarde, Lindelof, Torres, Maatsen, Onana, Barkley, Bailey, Rogers, Sancho, Tammy.

There won't be masses of changes. Emery hasn't done that since in the FA Cup since Stevenage.

Wouldn't be surprised if Bailey for Sancho and Abraham for Watkins were the only changes

I know Dyche is available but can't see him replacing Howe in the next 48 hours.

Given the pace with which these managerial changes are happening, I'm not ruling it out just yet.

It will be interesting to see what kind of side they put out as well, as they have a qualifier on Wednesday plus some injuries of their own.

I'm surprised at how split the verdict is here. Outside of a win against an extremely poor Spurs side, they've looked atrocious since mid Jan.

Not sure why I said Dyche when I meant Howe. Guess I'm just missing him already.

Our attack has been equally dross, but at least we can defend well.

I’d be massively surprised if Onana started on Saturday.
It seems that Unai is managing his minutes, tiredness and risk of injury.

Their priority is Champions League, so is ours.

Their priiority is nearer.

I do think they edge on squad in midfield/attack but we do on GK and Defence

I said this last round, play the kids.
In fact if we do now go with the B squad it begs the question why we risked the A team in the last round. Poor intial decision in my opinion although the response on here was "to rest players is disrespectful to the travelling support".

And if Joelinton plays the probability of incompetent dangerous tackling injuring another of our midfielders
