It should be good enough to win today, and keeps others fresh for Tuesday. I'm happy with that.

Shame Mccarthy isn't back. Not sure why we are playing the 40plus caballero. Hopefully JWP has just been given the day off. Other than that it is largely the expected lineup.

Shame only 1 u23 on the bench. Let's hope Ballard gets some minutes.

Jesus christ, its Blackpool get a grip. Obviously resting JWP is a good idea for Tuesday, that 11 and bench has enough to get through today.

To be fair, playing squad players is fair enough with the situation we're in.  If Caballero does ok, I would leave him in the side.

Just bought a ticket as well, against my better judgement.

Can't decide if I like that line up or not. It's definitely a bit different. Will let you know what I think more in a few hours time...

Pleased to see JWP rested. Hopefully thats all it is. Always a bit worried how often he plays with no rest.

We have a lot of crap on the bench - and only Ballard from the U23s.  Would have liked to have seen Doyle and Dibling on the bench with Payne starting.  he looked decent against Cambridge

In the position we are in, and the opponents we have at home, this team is fine, and should be enough to get us in the old ball bag for the next round.

Line up looks attacking, glad to see ABK back but if that doesn't make it blatantly obvious we need another CM/DM I don't know what else will.

Looks like a nice team, definitely crying out for that Hjulmand signing as mentioned.

Not quite sure what the Lavia deal is, this is the one game of the three I had zero interest in him playing.

Hopefully we see a bit (lot) more from Orsic in this one.

We have JWP, Lavia, Diallo and Alcaraz.

Striker is the immediate need.

It’s an alright lineup. Glad big Willy is getting some time and Bazunu comes out of the spotlight. Would prefer Alcatraz to Aribo. Good bit of rest for JWP, that front 3 looks to be where we might be headed in the league.

Unless Caballero is being given game time to get him ready for being first choice it seems kind of pointless. Might as well stick with Bazunu in the hopes he'll magically click.

Strange to play Lavia when he can only play 60 minutes and we have a cup semi final in 3 days

It's a strong line up I think, I just can't understand resting Lavia on Tuesday night and playing him today, he is vital for us to have any chance up at St James' Park

Yeah true. He’s our best option there and maybe needs games to get his peak fitness back, but it does seem a bit of a risk.

Agreed re Lavia. I can only assume he felt Diallo and JWP were more in need of a rest, and didn't fancy AMN in there.

Probably illustrates what already seems obvious- Alcatraz better than Aribo, and will get game time in other games…

If we were playing Fulham in the league I’d be annoyed but Christ almighty 🤣

What an overreaction.

Jones explained in the press conference yesterday why he preferred Diallo over Lavia for the Newcastle first leg. I imagine it's the same for Tuesday.

He's picked a team good enough to win today...that's focused enough imo.

I didn't hear that, but I can tell him we didn't give ourselves our best chance by not playing Lavia

Tuesday game was always going to be the more physical one and considering where Lavia is in terms of being managed back from his injury they chose to manage his minutes in that one for the benefit of upcoming games. Then went on to say Diallo is fantastic off the ball but needs to work on his game when on the ball and implied the other way around for Lavia (by stating that together they would be a complete midfielder worth £150 million). 

So I'm guessing Tuesday he'll go Diallo again at the start at least. He also made it pretty clear the PL is the priority so I'd suspect they want Lavia back in for that one.

JWP not being cup tied

so we will get more money for him on Monday 🤣

If that is the plan it's fucked - unless we are pretending that he didn't play against Palace.
