    With 15 minutes left and the score 2-2, we looked like we could go on to win the game.

    On comes James Maclean, and off comes Danny Graham?

    DG wasn't having the best of games, but is a goalscorer, and with 15 minutes to go, and hunting for victory, you don't take your goalscorers off the park.

    He then moves sessingnon, who is having a blinder on the right, and puts him upfront, the position that he is massively ineffective.

    He switches AJ to the right and puts Maclean on the left.

    From one subsitution he completely messes the whole forward line up.

    All oneil needed to do was a straight swap, Maclean for AJ.. Keep sess on the right and leave the 2 upfront, and I think we would have won that game.

    I am bemused by MON at times. And yesterday's sub was another example.

    I actually agree, very odd. What bugged me the most was why we had 4 players outside the box when we were taking corners and free kicks, especially in the last 10 minutes when Fulham had all 11 men in the box

    I don't think he has anything to rant about here to be fair.

    As soon as you change that many players positions you disrupt the whole team. Unfortunately if Graham is leggy then not much option.

    Graham was **** yesterday but Jimmy Mack was even more ****.

    On the odd occasion we do get a good cross in, there's no ****er there to tuck them away.

    if danny graham was leggy connor wickham should of come off the bench. Oh i forgot marty sent him to sheff wed as he'd rather have 2 goalies on the bench than a striker.
