 Do we know how Aarons actually did in his loan spell?
Did well from all accounts, started slowly but from what they were saying on the forums they were pretty sad to see him go.

 25 man squad is just for league games, I just mean not loaning him out again so he can play likely 2 cup games then spend the rest of the season in the reserves is just daft.
Oh right.

I think that as we knew he'd be back in Jan (and given we usually field weak teams in the Cup) then potentially we should have put in a no-cup clause to his loan deal as there was always a chance we might choose to use him, it's not like Wycombe would have said no to the loan just because he couldn't play in the FA Cup.

But I agree, it's not a massive deal or some sort of failing on the clubs part.

 Aarons is cup tied so can’t play.
People on Twitter (yes I know) are making a big thing over this, when it's fairly obvious he's going to be loaned out again given the squad is full. We were hardly going to keep him just for the FA Cup.
Yeah he's over 21 so presumably he'd need to be given an actual squad place - tho does that count for Cup games or is the named 25 man squad just for league fixtures?

 I used to be a frequent user of the forum but stopped because of the reasons outlined above - too insular. New users weren't really welcomed and the community spirit of the place died after a while because it just seemed to be the same old in jokes. I still check this place during the transfer windows as it's good to see rumours etc and I fondly remember the Mafia game threads. A shame really as it didn't had something for a while.
5 goals?
<ok> <cry>

 Why are our players always injured.
Fixed.
Exactly. The current squad has been battling injuries all season, especially the past 2 months, just as the team has been for...ever?

 “strongest team available” could mean a team full of kids tho if most of the first team are carrying issues.
The team without Joelinton is our strongest.

It's all to do with Steve Bruce and his training methods :bandit:

Why are our players always injured when we have got cup games to play?

We need to win this, we've got the easiest possible route into Round 5 and need to take advantage of it.

I think Bruce said in his presser something along the lines of we will play the strongest team available

I don't have a clue who's injured or not but the likes of Darlow, Muto, Ki, Krafth should play if available. Is Aarons back from loan? I'm sure I saw something saying he was. If so stick him in there too.

Might not be a bad idea to give Ritchie either the first half, or bring him off the bench to ease him back in.

 I'd forgotten we had a replay <laugh>
I thought it was on Saturday, not tomorrow. Hope we play mostly reserve/youth players. Need as close to a full strength team to get beat by Chelsea on Saturday.
