Over the next two matches, what do you EXPECT the line-up to look like and what do you HOPE it will look like?

Wolves, how young do you expect the squad to be? I'd like to get a long look at Eboue, and Quincy -I know...that's a dream- against Wolves.

That brings me to another question, I've heard nothing but good things about Lupoli and Quincy, but are they dominating because of the age groups they're going against or are they expected to have bright futures at Highbury?

I'll give it a go. Against Wolves, I'd like to see us play Lehman, Clichy, Senderos (is he healthy?, if not Eboue), Cygan (yes, Cygan), Hoyte, Pennant (hey, we're stuck with him), Viera, Flamini, Pires, Reyes, RvP. Almunia, Henry, Campbell, Cesc, Cole on the bench.

Against United: Lehman, Cole, Campbell, Senderos (if not, Cygan unfortunately), Lauren, Pires, Cesc, Viera, Ljunberg (if his hammy is feeling better, Reyes otherwise), Bergkamp, Henry. Bench: Almunia, Clichy, RvP, Reyes, and either a CB or Flamini.

A lot of the teams that they go up against in the reserve league will have a few seasoned pros knocking about, so tyhey're doing very well. Someone who's more regular at reserve games might be able to give a bit more insight.
