Last time I went in a huff about Burstow starting he scored and we won 3-1

****ING BURSTOW?!
 
Well Burstow, must be showing something in training or does Beale want a pay off and nice long break? :emoticon-0102-bigsm
 
Really not liking that starting line up. We lacked so much intensity in CM on Wednesday, yet weve gone same again. Rigg should have started for me, he brings energy aggression n quality. Ekwah n jobe should rotate as both are so similar n just arent consistent enough

Burstow offers nothing, doesnt work defenders n his link up play is shocking - heres hoping he makes me eat my words by scoring n playing well

Really pleased mundle is starting, he looked bright on Wednesday n was maybe the only positive

Not confident at all today but surely we have to away soon??????
 
This is the squad that beat Southampton and now has Mundle, Hjelde and Styles.

Yes we've had a few knocks but we've beaten Southampton, Leeds, West Brom, Preston, Hull and, let's not forget Birmingham already scoring three goals. They lost at Sheff Wed a week ago and looked shyte tbh. I don't give a toss if Mowbray knows our players and will want his latest team to beat one his previous teams.

Balls to all that, we can beat Birmingham, they could be 3 points off a relegation place tonight.

Ha'way the Lads, our sanity depends on this 3-0 away win <cheers>

I agree but I've not been overly impressed with rusyn. The pair of them are both quite limited. Just don't see anything in that team today that makes me think we will win. Take Clarke out that team and where is a goal coming from. Looking forward to seeing mundle and would have liked to have seen Rigg but let's be honest the options are so limited if we are wanting a 16 year old in team

I’m livid that Burstow is starting over Rusyn tbh. Clearly this is a “hope he proves me wrong” situation.

I see no reason for it other than Beale saying in midweek we don’t have a proper number 9 (again). Seems ridiculous to say but it almost feels like the position is being used as a scapegoat if we don’t win
