okay, no goal threat left on the pitch - not that we ever really had much of one to begin with tonight. Has CH totally lost the plot?
What do you expect him to do? We are down to 10 so only have Fer CM! Could of bought Elmander off, but he has only just come on!
Would have been a better option as GH is more likely to put a chance away, even if it was harsh on Elmo.
Good point tipsy. I'm not sure what else we could do, we have been bent over all game and from the 10th minute the best we could hope for is a draw.
he bought elmander on to a different scenario though. If its a question of keeping our best chance of a win playing, our sparing elmander his blushes, should be an easy choice for any manager. now elmander will score of course.
Yeah, we had to have Tettey on or we'd have had 1v3 in the middle, but I'd have rather said sorry to Elmander and let Hooper play on.
It's an excellent point taking into account the recent form of Newcastle.Let's not forget that they did West Ham 1-3. Now we go to Cardiff six points ahead of them making that game a must win game for them.
