Is their manager highly-rated? Could he outsmart our gaffer?

Not even if he's Kim Ung-Yong.

They’ve got some very good players, particularly Manzambi, who’s basically their Rogers. I also think Matanović will score because, since the turn of the year, he’s been in good form and tends to score in patterns of three — he’s currently on a two-game streak.

I can see this being a high-scoring match, with the winners (hopefully us) winning by the odd goal.

Going back then Rotherham is probably the weakest.

Although Rotherham were 2nd tier at the time and around about then, had their highest ever finish of 3rd place. No Playoffs then and were a whisker off 2nd place.

I think we should rest and rotate. We have a massive league game coming up which could have a bearing on who takes the title in the biggest bestest league in the world. We owe it to Arsenal.
I agree Andy.  We have already let the country down by throwing the game against Spurs.

I reckon Unai will go full gas from the start and try and blow them away.
