Clark, Dubravka and Hayden too. Not fully sold on Willock yet, decent in most games but had a few when he's been awful.
Hayden is overrated imo.. I agree Clarks solid, but I feel once you get down to those players were not talking about our best players just adequate players. Willocks a top player mate.
Clack, Schar and Fernandez all solid, not spectacular, but considering the ****e we normally have in defence, solid is a massive step up. Hayden not the most talented, but one of the few who actually sticks the boot in and makes any effort, along with Joelinton. Willock's looked generally good, was dire in the Brighton game, but then so were the rest of the team, and under Bruce's tactics no player will play their best.
How is Lascelles not a huge loss? He's a goal threat and a decent defender. Definitely our strongest in the air.
Chris I didn't realise until just reading it again how badly we need 3 points from Burnley - Next games - West Ham, Liverpool, Arsenal, Leicester, Man City.... then Sheffield united and Fulham... final 2 games. **** it, we need to risk Wilson and ASM, this needs to be treat as a must ****ing win! Realistic but slightly ambitious - ------------Wilson----Joelinton----- ------------------Almiron-------------- Ritchie----Shelvey--Longstaff---ASM --------Dummett-Clarke-Fernan--------- --------------------Dubravka-------------- If I was being Idealistic - ------------------Wilson----------- --Murphy----Almiron-----ASM ---------Willock--Longstaff---- Dummett--Clark-Fernandez--Manquillo -----------------Dubravka--------------------
The first one, but with Willock in instead of Shelvey. Joelinton needs to play, he was easily one of the best vs Spurs.
If they can at least be kept to a draw that would be massive really. As far as I see it, Newcastle and Fulham have 3 very winnable games Newcastle - Burnley Shef Utd Fulham Fulham - Wolves Burnley Newcastle Fulham also have Southampton away, but I think that's not a VERY winable game for them.
Of course, predicting it is impossible. Wemight stumble through and end up about 16th maybe 15th. But come the end of the weekend, Fulham could win, we could lose and it'll be all the usual doom and gloom.
