And that means we're no longer two deep at every position?
This what you call anecdotal evidence.
Surely a young lad wouldbe better gaining experience of travelling with th squad than a keeper that won't get to even warm up, f**king pathetic it is.
Is it Farke playing a twat, or is he making a statement about the thin squad !!
Either way, it's f**king embarrassing.

The two keeper thing is a bit odd but we do have James, Struijk, Shackleton and Roberts to come in.
I'm guessing Shackleton would have been in the squad if he wasn't ill.

Hard to get excited about an FA Cup replay at Plymouth Argyle. But if we must play it then we need to win it. I like the rotation in the starting eleven. Let's see how it works out for DF.

I get your point, but I don't see it as an embarrassment. Maybe it's the third keeper who is that young lad.
My point is, though, that Farke left seven or eight of our eleven best out of the lineup and we're still fielding a pretty strong squad. Combine that with what he said in the presser about resting players and I think we're looking at the sixteen or seventeen outfield players he expects to take us across the line.

No excuses for mr chilli, it's highly embarrassing and taking the piss out of the fans, the players and the opposition.

I wondered the same thing during the Jan. window, MC. But I wonder now if it's more the case of taking the best nine for the bench regardless of position. Speaks to the stock DF puts in hard work, performance in practice, focus, etc.
