Maybe he thinks DG has not scored for so long he is due one?? Terrible decision in my book, the guy is useless.
Graham will always track back and help the midfield and defence which may have influenced Allardyce's decision to pick him..
Problem with Danny Graham helping defending is that he can't. He's a striker, so they're not too good at tracking men, marking, tacking, positioning etc. Very strange decision to me RAW.
To be fair, he won't have been picked for his goalscoring. I'd guess Sam is thinking we're gonna be under a lot of pressure and DG is our best option for holding the ball up to give the likes of Defoe Lens and PVA time to get up the pitch from a defensive position. He's also more useful defending set pieces than Borini, Watmore etc. Tbh, the more I think about it, the more I can understand the reason behind the pick. Hope N'Doye can hit the ground running though so we don't have to rely on DG in future
Dembele back for Spurs was out against Newcastle & Leicester wonder how your full backs get on against Rose+ Trippier
Am sat in a sports bar in Tenerife, surrounded by spuds, last time I was in this situation we stuffed them. Lets hope history repeats itself.
Robbie savage complaining that we've gone there fir a draw! Dies he want us to do an Everton and just attack so we get hammered? Idiot
Got to be one of the worst advantages ever. Attacking free kick on the angle 35 yards from goal or a defender with the ball with no one in front if him? And why isn't Alli booked for diving? Kane did it at the sol as well without punishment.
