Of course it is pal, the board be **** if we all agree on everything. I would play Larsson & Cattermole deep & play Giaccherini in the hole.
Vergini for the bench IMO. Needs a rest the lad. Brid struggled on Sat but he and Rod are fine as Catts understudy or alongside him
Giacc is a funny one always does well off the bench but struggles from the start i would play aj down the left with van anholt both left footed aj trickery and vans pace would be a good combo and they wouldnt have to cut inside to cross also alvarez just off fletcher
The lad hasn't started many tho. the only positions I would play Giacc or Alvarez is in the hole. they can't play on the wings because they are slow & weak in my eyes. Fletcher is a donkey & I would rather play Altidore pal. give the team miles more.
He'll never make a midfielder so long as I've got a hole in my arse and I've got the ****s right now so it isn't going to close up any time soon, he's to slow and immobile to make a midfielder.
as above, except i don't have a touch of the Mark Spitz. he is nowhere near nimble enough to play midfield. he's a centre half playing out of position at right back and suffering as a result.
I like him as a center half, but he's never going to be a midfielder, he just doesn't have the mobility.
Personally think he always looks uncomfortable on the ball so wouldn't put him in midfield plus he seems slower than a tractor going up hill. Its all about opinions like but for me he wouldn't be in the starting line up now Jones is fit.
Our best pairing at the back is O'Shea and Brown and with both full backs fit I don't see a starting place for Santiago.
