I think Orsi ahead of Taylor, because of the energy Orsi brings. The first Luton match is the hardest game we've played IMO, and Orsi ran lost causes all game, was feeding off absolute scraps but DID make things happen when given an opportunity. Also, although we've not had a chance to see it loads, i do think he's a more natural finisher if we do get half a chance.

I love Taylor and wouldn't be disappointed if he does play, he holds the ball up and brings other into play....but in reality how much are we going to get the ball to him, and whats the likelihood of others being close enough to him without a defender of theirs covering, hah.

Yep. Orsi over Taylor for me.

We'll need to defend from the front and just hope that hassling them might result in a mistake.  That's Orsi's game rather than something Taylor can do from the start.

McAtee was hauled off at half-time on Saturday after what looked like a bit of a disagreement with Doig, didn't feature on Tuesday.  Not convinced he'll start on Sunday either.  He'll bring energy for sure but wouldn't surprise if Hurst reverts more to the Luton system of 2 banks of 2 central midfielders.

That Emmanuel didn't start midweek suggest to me he will on Sunday and that just leaves Smith or Efete, with my money going on the latter to get the nod.

                       Crocombe
              Efete Waterfall Maher
     Emmanuel Hunt Green Glennon
                    Holohan Clifton
                            Orsi

I reckon Orsi will start as the pitch looks a lot bigger and there will be plenty of ground to cover, I suspect we’ll be covering that ground without the ball.

5-4-1. Turning into a 5-5-0 when defending. Going to be really really tough but keep it super tight for First 30 mins and don't be embarrassed. Town fans singing for 95 minutes + regardless of result and a superb advert for the club and town

Agree with Stew

Need to go in at HT at 0-0 or better

Just look how Man C demolished Top side Burnley 6-0 despite being 0-0 at 30 minutes

Longer it stays 0-0, more chance we get a breakaway winner.

I agree with DHM.  We should start cautiously against a top team.

We can also bring on more offensive players later if we have to.

We need to park the bus for 89 minutes then surprise them with a 90th minute breakaway goal.

That's our only hope.

BUT

Whatever the score let the players know we are proud of them for getting us this far.

Be nice to get to Wembley though.

Personally I would start with VAR, man of the match at Southampton.
