When was the last time we made the semi final of a cup competition?

I'll tell you when, it was in this competition twenty years ago.

Since then. we've bombed out of the QF stage in the League Cup three times (all to Man City), four times in the FA Cup, and once in the Champions League.

So, that is eight out of eight times we've failed to win a quarter final starting with Taylor and Wycombe and going through to last year and another penalty shoot out failure against Man City. That's a pretty sorry sequence.

BR has already said that he'll be making changes for this game but not wholesale ones. It will be interesting to see how he picks with the Man City game looming on Saturday. Surely Vardy and the two full backs won't play.
 
I'd like to see either Hirst or Muskwe on the bench too, Nacho needs to be sold, so see if these lads can make the step up
 
Full strength for this one please. 2nd place and a cup would be an awesome season.
 
We need to start with a strong XI. changes only due to normal rotation for me, not a wholesale cup side. One of the reasons Puel went was his indifference to these QFs. The next two league games are important but won’t define our top four chase, and we should be chasing cups.
 
**** the world

Play the strongest possible team we have, depending on fitness

Rotation ahead of the Man City game but its still a strong side. Would rest Maddison but one of the starting midfielders needs to stay in and Tielemans needs the rest more I think.

I agree, that’s the sort of lineup I can see happening.
 
The team I'd pick:

Ward, Justin, Morgan, Benkovic, Fuchs, Mendy, Choudhury, Albrighton, Perez, Iheanacho, Barnes

The team I think BR will pick:

Schmeichel, Ricardo, Morgan, Soyuncu, Fuchs, Ndidi, Praet, Tielemans, Perez, Iheanacho, Barnes
 
Nah, we is going shit or bust

Schmeichel
Ricardo
Evans
Soyuncu
Chilwell
Ndidi
Tielemans
Maddison
Perez
Barnes
Vardy

’tis the only way
 
At least it is on in Kyrgyzstan. Great stuff.
