Unfortunately he plays for Man City. It is bizarre that our only win in ten games was a battering of Liverpool and one of the other two points came from a top three side.
Just as well we won so much when Pearson came in. That was clearly just a new manager bounce. That last minute Villa goal might do for us. We really do slip down the league or pick up basically no points near the end of a season don't we.. IF we did go down would you do this for the Championship? Probably some teams we haven't played in a while! .
BTW They all say how rubbish Mariappa is but it looks like we've kept most of our clean sheets with him in the team.. In a central defensive role maybe rather than at right back where he is exposed more. Maybe shows our other defenders aren't a lot better... Or maybe again that was our peak with Saar/GD and Deeney all playing well.
I would try Foster Feminia Mariappa Dawson Masina Holebas Hughes Chalobah Cleverly Wellbeck Sarr Deeney, Doucoure and Capue on the bench if things don't work out
Of the seven games we have won three have been against teams currently in the top six and four have been against teams currently in the bottom three. Work that out.
I've just looked at last season's league appearances. The players who appeared last season but not this are: Sema Navarro Wilmot Okaka Britos The players who have appeared this season but not last season are: Dawson Welbeck Sarr Foulquier Pussetto Joao Pedro
Yeah, what Yorkie said: been bad enough reading it, let alone putting it altogether! Purgatory, I'd say. Great effort though, cheers!
Great work! Have a good break. Maybe just do how we did against some teams the last couple of times we played them ? Can get the results for you. We must have beaten most of them in 2012/13 and 2014/5!
