Its a statement on the new players not trying hard enough, its better to do it now than at a winnable game.
Agree. Granero's mind wasn't in the right place against Southampton. A spell on the bench will help him focus, and I don't mean that in a cynical way. I should think Harry will be pretty pleased with Bowen and Co's approach.
Presenter on sky sports 2 said this was Dyer's first start since August 2011, was sure he'd started one or two earlier this season. Wonder if Bowen and Niedwickywacky picked this team or if orders came down from on high. Would love the boys to nick something today.
Centre backs especially look vulnerable to pace mate, but then I like M'Bia in centre mid. Mackie would help Dyer and Taarabt likewise would help Traore.
ESPN has it as a 4141 with Derry in front of the back 4 and Mbia and Faurlin in the middle. Not sure whats going on but theyve kept them in the tunnel for ages.
Players encouraging each other. Acknowledging effort from team mates. I'm happy with what I'm seeing so far
