[FAC] Exeter City (A): Build Up

[Gray]

Too soon for Flannagan to play?

[Fosterbloke]

Fast track Matip or get a loaner in.

[Fosterbloke]

Too soon for Flannagan to play?

**** yeah, he's played 30 minutes or so in 2 years! Even Benteke would move more than him!

[frank the tank]

i think even if we got a player on loan right now then he wouldnt be registered in time to play on friday night.

For me, it would be good to see Lucas play back there again. I thought he was immense there last night and he could be used there more frequently if required (if like last night we had an injury and the manager didn't want to / couldn't bring on a defender).

What is the craic with Sakho??? Is he out for long??

[Vermilion]

Klopp on changes for Exeter...

"We have to take the situation and we go to Exeter, it's a great tournament. We have to make decisions for the team and make changes.

"I don't know who will be available. We will train in two hours and see who will play tomorrow.

"The team which plays tomorrow will want to win this game 100 per cent but it will be a team that didn't play too often together."

Looked like he jarred his Knee .. probally has some swelling .. 2 weeks if we are lucky ... and I pulled that out of my arse

[BigChief]

Just go with Tex, Kent, Randall, Smith. They're good enough.

Bring on Ojo if we're looking comfortable.

[Lecter]

Not sure whether Ilori is eligible

[Buzzo]

Is kolo fit?

[BigChief]

Kolo is out of the game, rested. According to the Klopp thread.

So Lucas and Can it is then.

[Lecter]

Not according to Klopp

So we literally don't have any centre backs?

It's time to get Bentekkers playing in the position he was born to fill. Out £32m 5th choice centre back.

"Jurgen Klopp has admitted he will make changes to his side for this weekend's FA Cup third-round match with Exeter.

"'That is the thing we have to do now, said Klopp. 'We have to take the situation like it is and we go to Exeter - I will be there for sure, I'll take a few players with me."

"'That is the thing we have to do now, said Klopp. 'We have to take the situation like it is and we go to Exeter - I will be there for sure, I'll take a few players with me. It's a great tournament, we have to make decisions in this moment for the team so we have to make changes, that is all I can say because I don't know who is available.

"'Now it's Exeter then we have five or six days until we play Wednesday, so it's nearly a break! Then we play Arsenal and Manchester United. No big space to enjoy but what we saw at Stoke was a brilliant performance of my team, especially the first half, we will always have a team on the pitch and that's okay.

"'We time for a few players to recover and come back and be available for Arsenal. The squad is big, with all the young players it's really big, and we have to use this quality now and that is what we are doing.'"
