Must make changes here, can't risk injuries to our key players.

We'll know before kick-off if it's even worth going through.

.............................Areola

KWP.....Mavropanos.....Todibo.....Scarles

Traore.....Magassa.....Kante.....Lamadrid

.............................Soucek

.............................Wilson

Get Pablo on for 20-30mins in the 2nd half.

Leeds at home that'll do!

[El Scorchio]

Leeds at home

Not a bad draw. Incentive for us and for Brentford.

[Iron Duke]

Unlike Fulham and Sunderland, it looks like Brentford are taking the cup seriously, which is bad news for us.

Will be a tight game I think.

[cup of tea]

Draw coming up shortly, 4 of the balls currently in the microwave being warmed up

[cup of tea]

Just get on with the draw (Liverpool away)

[Massive Attack]

No Potts

And no Spurs.

[Mad Ferret]

No Potts

[Massive Attack]

Would have kept Hermansen in goal unless he's injured which I haven't seen mentioned he is anywhere.

[Takashi Miike]

of course, would prefer Jimmy to the dwarf chucker, but I expected a much weaker team

[Mad Ferret]

Updated today Pablo unavailable a few SAUCES 

He's in the squad for tonight.

Stick to predicting Spurs line ups mate 

He starts, you mug.

[El Scorchio]

Hope Pablo is properly recovered. Can't have him break down.

[Massive Attack]

Brentford pretty much full strength. 

[Elpojohn]

West Ham United: Areola, Walker-Peters, Mavropanos, Disasi, Scarles, Kanté, Fernandes, Souček, Adama, Bowen ©, Pablo
Subs: Herrick (GK), Wan-Bissaka, Mayers, Kilman, Potts, Magassa, Summerville, Taty, Wilson  

[Gary Strodders shank]

In Stratford now and looking forward to this

I've had a fiver on us to win 3.2 on Betfair at 34s.

I will also have my usual tenner on Soucek if he is playing.
 

[Tomsdad]

Not sure about this one.
Don't know about you, but when playing in the back garden I always scored the winning goal in a cup final for West Ham. Fuck Champions league, the cup was the one my generation dreamed of.

Its just a chance to play a few younsters nowadays. Such a shame

[Takashi Miike]

I'm happy with that, would prefer 2 up top but it's a positive line up. Well done Nuno

What are the 'odds' that in the draw tonight, Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal, and Liverpool all miraculously avoid one another.

23% chance (the maths liklihood) or 100% chance (the sponsor's paid for it liklihood).

True its for the SE Asian and Middle East cable TV channels

I'd rather a player wasn't rushed back. That's happened too many times with us, with bad consequences.

[Fauxstralian]

Players get injured in warm ups, training or down the pub (Andy Carroll)
If players have a knock or a bit of an injury then leave them out by all means but if they are ready to go play them 
Man City usually turns out to be a more ‘meaningless’ game every season to be honest 

[Gank]

Hoping Pablo is involved tonight.

I hope he starts, then we can hook him if he needs it. I do t like it when we bring on players who are returning from injury because if they're not quite ready or get a knock you either have to sub the sub back off or leave him on to make it worse.

But yeah, if Pablo has a half in him I'd like to see him start.
