Proper strange line up. Looks like a starting XI for that B-team cup thingy.

Should prove interesting

I thought he was one of our best players against Millwall. I don`t understand why he is on the bench.

Same, is it fitness related or has he pretty much signed as a de facto coach / dressing room presence?

Greetings from Western Australia. Managed to get the game live on Bein Sports Australia. Even better on a free week’s trial subscription.

So its a 2.45am kick off. I should know better. Come on O’s, everything to play for!

I agree but I think there would be a lot of sore, aching legs after Saturday’s efforts. He needs to manage minutes for the whole squad I would think.

Exactly, we have a small number of better quality key players who all seem to be a bit... fragile so no point risking your only decent LB for example for a Mickey Mouse cup game

What was that lack of effort from DJ. Minute 15 and he can’t be bothered.

Weird wasn’t it? Just didn’t bother. Looks like he’s quite skilful but can’t be f*cked if it isn’t right to his foot
