We're far from out of it, but really could do with a good win to get over the Bolton debacle. I'm confident we'll have the majority of the play, but I want us to actually test the goalkeeper more. If we get hit on the counter again, I won't be a happy bunny.
I won't necessarily call it a bad move if Diony doesn't start, but you can't go to the press one day saying he's a £10m player and declaring your surprise it hasn't made more waves and then keep him on the bench every weekend - you either say 'we're easing him in', or you give him a start...
Its the players who need to make changes not the manager.. and they have earned the right to get the chance to that without whinging fans sniping after 1 bad performance!
So after 4 points in January,would you keep the same team that has struggled to win championship games,or as Lee calls him the ten million man, would you still keep him on the bench, or start him.
I don't disagree with players needing to "have the chance" but there comes a point when mitigating factors kick in.... amongst them complacency, tiredness and over confidence....3 good results against prem teams then v a bottom of the league team. Well something looks easier you do often go at it with less vigour and I think that was the case v Bolton, we do have a healthy squad and I THINK maybe those on the fringe might be worth a throw of the dice...
Our last three games were DWL. The draw away to second in the league and the win when we had 10 men. But One bad result against Bolton should mean we should write the team off.
History. How far do you want to go back? I see your Villa Norwich, Wolves and raise you Reading Forest and Sheff Utd, you see I can count backwards and recite History too
Apart from Derby and QPR which have been two of the most recent. Have you ever thought about changing your name from Red Robin to Black Vulture the way you hover over to pick at the bones of a couple of poor games whilst spouting on about form tables and oh we’ve got no points from the last hundred games.
