We seem to suffer more than most team I believe, this season so far Stokes, Hooper, Brown, Loovens, Cha, Kayal, Mark Wilson, Other Wilson, and Izzy but now the new ****ybaws is ****ing out too! What the **** is going on?
Looks like it, at least for some of it. I think its the right choice to go with sammi, his running into channels and holding the ball is fine tonight we will be under pressure for most of it so I'm happy for him to fanny about hold it too long and close his eyes when heading for goal as it will give us time to regroup at the back. Forest should start too for me his head will be up after the weekend and he has pace which could prove vital tonight. I now fully expect to be riddiculed for this.
Given the lack of options up front I don't see much choice but to start with the Greek on his own. Reckon we'll line up: Forster Matthews - K Wilson - Loovens - Mulgrew Wanyama Ledley - Ki- Kayal - Commons Samaras
Stereo I can see where you are coming from but I would worry about Wanyama, as he has had very little game time with us. I would prefer to go with Mark Wilson in midfield, experienced and good strong tackler. Also I would prefer Forrest on the right. Three reasons, he was really flying on Saturday and it lets Ledley play his usual position. Commons hasn't showed anything this season yet. However, what do we know? I would like Lennon to spring a wee surprise.
I like ST's team. Forrest was great the weekend hence I'd rather keep him for Sunday & have Commons with his experience & clever play in this game. He has not been so good this season but that has to change at some point, the more time he gets the more likely he is to find his form again. We need to hold a few back for the weekend so playing Matthews & Wilson could backfire with Cha already out an injury to one of them could see us in trouble as the other one will be knackered more than likely. Would like to see Wanyama play the Evander Sno role
Don't think we were aware of that at the time though. Thought he did a good shift for us in a few european games breaking up their play and playing it simple to somebody who could pass. SPL level he wasn't upto our level as we are mainly on the front foot and don't require that holding midfielder so much.
Sno was ****e. He had a good few half decent games early on - but after that every time he played he was ****e. He ended up at Bristol City not getting a game there for **** sake Granted he later had heart issues But doesnt take away from the fact that ultimately he was ****e There was times when no one was near him and all he had to do was pass the ball 5 yards to a teammate - but no he would back off arms spread looking for an opposition player to hold off and foul. He was ****ing rotten. Nice lad im sure, great name But ****e footballer
