The Irons head into tomorrow’s FA Cup 3rd round FA Cup tie with high hopes of staging s serious march on Wembley but quite what sort of team we see is more than a little interesting.
Usually many of those who have had little chance to make any real impact would be on display but with injuries being what they are the regular rules may not apply.
Birmingham City boss Gary Monk expects to see Samir Nasri involved saying: Nasri has just joined, so you would probably think he will be involved,”
Speaking to reporters he said: “It will be an opportunity for him.
“They have a quality squad, they have invested heavily in it. Whoever we play against will be dangerous and high quality.”
However, Nasri looks unlikely to involved for more than the half hour Manue Pellegrini believes he is capable of right now and it seems likely that Andy Carroll will be involved.
However, we see few changes from recent outings with the team remaining focused on a decent cup run and expect to see the team looking something like this:
Adrian, Zaba, Diop, Ogbonna, Masuaku Antonio, Rice, Obiang, Diangana, Anderson, Carroll.
