According to the Fail, Gulasci is a strong possibility to replace Basso for Saturday, if the Brazilian isn't fit; Waggy, Pusic and Barmby are all being checked today; and Cam Stewart is being lined up for the Reserves' game against Gateshead, next Wednesday: http://www.thisishullandeastriding.co.uk/story-13740871-detail/story.html
Let's hope he has a lot more confidence, as the Leeds game must have really hurt. He has to be able to work with the back four. (And they with him)
It is certainly going to be a tough game for him to come into, I'm hoping that he will come in with a point to prove, think with it been his first game back (assuming Basso doesn't make it) there is bound to be a couple of nervous moments but hope our back four can ride them out and they grow in confidence together
It will be interesting to see what team he puts out on Saturday. I hope they've covered a few things in training today as well as they were far too open at Oakwell. Reckon a case of complacency set in on Tuesday. Back to basic solid defending against West Ham, I think. Gulasci Rosenior Chester Hobbs Dudgeon Brady Koren McKenna Evans McLean Fryatt with Foghorn coming off the bench after 65 mins.
Well if he needs surgery, top of the priority list in January is a permanent golaie. Has Mannone broken into the first team squad yet????
give the lad a chance for christs sake. ya sounding like those neg heads on tuesdays blunderside sports programme. he might have a blinder and he will for sure want to prove a point. all goalkeepers have nightmares. the lastest one was paul rachubka @ tws last night. oh yes, one more for the sick room.....namely Simon Grayson. lol.
I wouldnt be surprised to see one up top on Saturday with koren playing off him. Id go for GK DL DR DC DC LM Cairney CM Evans CM McKenna RM Brady AMC Koren ST McLean
It wasn't being negative about Galusci per se, I was just pointing out that he had a complete ****ing mare in his last game, now when he has to come back in, it's against West Ham. It's rather a baptism of fire(again).
YES. he has had a few subs bench appearances but i suspect that he would be allowed to go out on loan again. if we need a keeper in Jan then make an offer for Jim Steele. How that gk is not @ a PL club now is beyond me. i would take him above half of the PL goalies at the moment.
He's been on the bench for one Carling Cup game, he should definitely get a loan, he's still fourth choice at Arsenal and he's not going to get a game for them.
The problem with Gulasci, as I see it, is that he has flaws in his basic technique rather than it being a question of confidence or experience.
very true. but time has moved on since his last game and the team are doing much much better. the back 4 are the best around and that should also help him. this could be the perfect game to play him in as its a show peace game and one that he will be up for. as far as i am concerned the slate is clean and he starts a fresh if he plays. those early games have faded away for me.
