Can't believe some of the comments here, play the second team ?
Its a Prem game which we have the same chance of winning as Spurs. Blackburn won at Utd, Villa won at Chelsea, we even got a point there last season proving anything can happen if you actually have a go so if we are rolling over before kickoff then Roy will get the same dogs abuse for it that Robson, Mowbray and RDM got when they did the same.
Its a pooh night to go to London, its a rubbish price just after Christmas and if we are playing the 'reserve' squad bearing in mind its a cup game at the weekend and the 1st choice players will have a day off then let me know now and i'll take my ticket back and stay at home.
You play your strongest available team in every game possible.
