I would be very surprised if HR did not pick that team Col. Think about it, he gets to pick the team, have a rough look at the players and formation he wants and then if it does not work Bowen gets blamed for it. It’s a perfect situation for Harry.
Agreed, but I thought I read somewhere that Harry had said he hadn't had any input. Doesn't mean he hasn't of course!!
Anything is possible, but put yourself in Harry's shoes. What would you do? It’s a win win situation for him. Loose and he won't be blamed. Win and even his presence will be seen as the decisive factor. I would bet my house that he had a say in the team. Why would he go to watch more of the same.
Harry is not picking the team today. Its all MB ED and KH because they have been handling all the match preparation. Harry's only been confirmed for a few hours. Lighten up everybody.
I think that's probably right. Not sure what the "lighten up" comment is all about though? Also, Hughes was hinting at dropping some of the players and getting in some of the old guard. Be so ironic if he has stumbled on a better system AFTER he's gone!
