Will BBM make a few changes to the starting line-up from the first two games of the season, or will he fall foul of the (mooted) requirement to play his "best available team"?
I'm expecting a few changes
I'd like to see Magloire in action and Done replace Dooley at the very minimum. Also, if Rathbone was "touch and go" for last Saturday, he might be ready for tonight |  |

I’d like to see Magloire too, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see Delaney either in an attempt to give McNulty and O’Connell a rest.
Maybe Calvin might get a run out, but apart from him and Done don’t think we have too many more realistic options without playing the first year pro’s |  | | |

I should imagine there will be changes. Not sure what they'll be though. I'd like to see this if certain players are back fit and it fits the rules about what changes you can make.

We want to win this game and get into the next round. Making too many changes would be rather complacent and risky. |  |

Six changes? There is potentially a better chance to get a Prem team in this competition than in the FA Cup. Why take chances? |  |

There should be no half measures tonight. There is good money to be made in this competition, Bolton may turn up with a team of kids but lets not trip on that banana skin. We should set up to win and win well, |  | | |

If we lose tonight, it will be all over the news as how 'plucky young Bolton beat Rochdale to earn plumb draw at Everton.'
Better to put a strong team out, be professional and hopefully get the job done. | |

I entirely agree
I don't think anyone could argue that a fit Rathbone and Done would weaken the side, while Magloire needs to be tested in a serious competitive fixture to add to the championship games he's featured in. He could conceivably be part of our "strongest available team" as the season progresses | |

Not sure the 6 changes I suggested are as risky as some suggest. Bringing Rathbone, Done and McLaughlin in are improvements in my mind. The 2 centre halves and GK are the only ones you could consider a risk but I do think they all need game time in case they are called upon. | |

That’s what bounce games are for. | |

This isn't the Checkatrade thingy.
We need to win tonight firstly to try and get a decent moneyspinning tie in the next round and also to try and prick any confidence that this Bolton team might have. | | | |

I knew I'd fall into that trap. It probably won't be the last time either. | |

Done in for Dooley might happen but the former needs to up his game as he offered very little when he came on Saturday.
Olly and McLauglin back in the squad and given a run out if we are doing well too.
As everyone else is saying, good strong team get thew job done and into Rnd 2......we don't anymore tears on BBC Radio Bolton. | | | |

Losing 1-0 and already I know the post-match chat will be dominated by the keeper debate. | |

IMHO the linesman on that side is having a poor game | | | |
