I expected and want, nay demand 2 upfront at home. The fact he is doing it away says a lot about his confidence imo. I am certainly happy with the team selection. Still a bloody decent bench as well.
Simms and/or Stewart need to hold the ball up here. I expect a goal here and one might be enough ... ... HAWAY!!!
I'm hoping Danny Batth is on form today. Weimann is a very difficult opponent for our young lads at the back. He's a proven quantity at this level, he's vastly experienced, his movement is good and he's coming off the back of the best season of his career. If we keep him quiet, we should take something from the game.
If it is a back three we will miss Bailey Wright he is our best right in a three imo. Unlucky not to be starter as is Embleton who was outstanding in the last game, a couple starting today werent and will have to up their game today.
“Too early for a yellow card” unless you play for Sunderland of course and win the ball cleanly! ****ing hell man
It could be possible that Dan Neil, is being given a run of a few games to see if he can impress his talent for 90 mins. If not, out on loan he goes? Imho Embo is already up to it.
