Gave their squad some game time and it got them out of the pointless cup that they were never going to win. I think they would say it worked pretty perfectly.
They lost the game so it didn't work
Don't see the two as connected. They lost the game so it didn't work.
It's a bit cliche, but the next game should always be the most important one. You'll never create a good mentality and culture in your squad if you pick and choose which games are important.

Id rest Branthwaite and Tarkowski. Even if it means having Keane and Godfrey at CB.

If we are not interested in progressing to the next round, then absolutely correct.
They could be rested tonight and get injured in training tomorrow.
If they play tonight they will have the day off tomorrow.
For me tonight should be about momentum and trying to win some silverwear.

We should be trying to win every game. Losing begets losing.

He could always nip out for 90 mins fresh air.
We could easily lose with our best team tonight.
But think back to last season. Things began to go badly wrong for Lampard when he changed the entire team for Bournemouth in the cup. We got thrashed in the cup and everyone felt demoralised and it led to us then getting thumped again in the league on the Saturday.
I dont think Lampard won another match after that.
For those advocating players needing to be restsd, tell that to the 4.5k Evertonians who will have spent best part of £100 on ticket, coach and food.
There's a reason we've sold out even though every fibre in your body tells you it's stupid to go.
Its because we are desperate to cling onto any kind of positivity, a chance of a rare away win. Maybe we win tonight and we get a nice easy home tie for the next game.
I mentioned it yesterday, when was the last time we won 2 away games on the spin? Wins breed confidence, confidence then assists momentum and ffs as a club we could all do with the momentum pointing in the right direction for a change.
Let's go there tonight and give it a proper good go and see where that gets us.

Exactly, he never recovered from that. Usual soundbites of "well I gave people a chance to impress and they haven't so they won't get a chance" then that in turn put massive pressure on the usual suspects who couldn't cope and we were soundly beaten by Bournemouth just as much on the Saturday as we were in the cup a few days earlier.
Lampard completely read the room wrong and never recovered.
IPTV will have it .....
