Good chance for some our players with less game time recently to make an impact today. Including Moura.

Looking forward to this one, will be a very different game to some of our recent high profile games. But looking forward to a team looking to show that they've learned from the Newport game.

Spot on. Need 11 players who dont think they just need to turn up to win. This wont be a gimme
 
FA Cup remains our best chance to win a trophy this season. Despite this, it is disappointing that Pochettino does not seem to rate it highly. No wonder we have never been convincing in any domestic Cup matches under Pochettino. We almost got humiliated by Newport and needed the replay to beat them in Round 4. We need to play much better if we want to go all the way to win the FA Cup this season. Let's hope all the players will realize this and step up their game against Rochdale in this match.

There is no reason to rest any players for this match as we don't have any league match until next week. Will prefer if we play our best players in this match except for those injured. After coming so close to being humiliated by Newport, we need to show due respect to all our opponents. So, Kane should start this match unless he is not fully fit. Llorente still has not been convincing in any matches. If Kane does not start, then we have to rely on others like Son, Alli, Eriksen or Lamela for the goals. Lamela did score when we beat Newport in the replay. He is one player who doesn't have problem lifting his game against any teams.

We seem to have many options in midfield now with all the players returning from injury. Wanyama and Dembele are our ideal partnership. But won't mind if we play the likes of Sissoko and Winks in midfield in this match. Sissoko has not been playing well in recent matches. We need to continue to hope he will lift his game against teams like Rochdale. Winks has not played much after returning from injury as well. I am still not fully convinced of Winks but hope he will do well in this match. I think our new player Moura should start in this match to show us what he can do as well.

Our defence have not been keeping many clean sheets this season. With due respect to Rochdale, it will be annoying if we don't keep the clean sheet in this match. Foyth has not been fully convincing but hope he will have a error-free match, if he starts. Alderweireld started against Newport in he replay. Won't mind if he starts in this match as well to get back his match fitness after his injury.

We have been fortunate to get weaker teams in the FA Cup so far this season. We should make use of that to go all the way to win the FA Cup this season. Let's hope we will turn up with the right team and mentality to beat Rochdale and progress to the FA Cup Quarter Finals.
 
Are we allowed to play the under 18s or do we have to field from our first team squad?

Really don't want to to risk any first teamers on that surface.
 
Everybody dance now!

Since we are the favourites against Rochdale in this match, all the pressure will be on us to win. The more the game goes on without us scoring, the more pressure will be on us. We need to get an early goal to help us settle our nerves and then get more goals to kill the game off. Let's hope we will put up a good performance and get a convincing win to progress to the FA Cup Quarter Finals.
 
Lots of us dreaming of the semi already. Can’t believe they did the draw before most games were finished.

It’s different every round so makes no sense.
 
would like to see vorm, alder, rose if fit, moura, son, wanyama, aurier, sissoko, winks to start. dier to train him into a proper CB. one of dele, lamela and aurier as extra training., the other two as subs. and we will still win it.
 
From OS:-
Vorm (C)
Trippier - Alderweireld - Foyth - Rose
Wanyama - Winks
Sissoko - Lucas - Son
Llorente​

Subs:-
Gazzaniga
Sanchez
Walker-Peters
Dier
Dele
Lamela
Kane​
 
Good match for Alderweireld to come back into.

As posted earlier, as long as we treat this match in the right way, we should be fine. No thinking we just have to show up to win. New pitch will be a bit of a leveller
