That is a line up devised by someone who has got the hump with his players. The only reason big Dave is playing is because he's off to Ukraine next week. The biggest game of Neils season and he starts Dorrans.
Hmmm.............just seen the starting line up. Not that impressed. Dorrans starts. Bradys on the bench for some reason. At least Mbokani is back in, and Bennets in, and Bassong dropped.
I am going to put myself through the agony. No matter how hard I try, I just can't turn my back on the team (as crap as they have been)
Dorrans! Anyone watching / listening, may I suggest you keep your seat belts on for the entire flight - we may well experience a little turbulence
It defy's all belief and logic. Beginning to think AN really has lost the plot and has no idea about his best team, positions for several players, setting up the team or tactics. If we don't attack were buggered. If we do attack, we're still buggered.
I'm not even angry or annoyed, I've accepted the fact we're going down a few weeks ago and it seems so have the players.
Oh yea, we have been down since Sunderland. I still get angry watching my team look like such bloody amateurs.
So have many of the fans. Biggest pisser is Sunderland's fans and players refuse to accept that until the final whistle of the final game. That's the difference.
I wonder if or when Sunderland scores how quickly that will affect the atmosphere and spreads to the team? Everton have been playing poorly so I expect Sunderland to win.
I still have faith that a swift bounce back is more likely than not, though it wont be easy. Everything will depend on who leaves and comes in. If we can keep Klose I will feel more confident about the defence as long as we offload Bassong. Midfield is reasonable and the less we say about strikers the better
