    Long has slotted too well into the Pelle role these last few weeks. Looks wrong having the two play together

    Yes, glad to see my expectations completely unmet so far! :biggrin: Although, of course, we have to do our bit now.

    Time to use that very strong bench, methinks.

    This is why Austin should be starting. To take chances like that.

    I wouldn't have him in place of Shane though. I'm afraid Graziano's stately bottom should be warming that bench.

    IMO Pelle needs to be subbed, the sooner the better, today he's just some useless lump wandering on the field. Long does his job better than him, plays more forward, wins more aerial duels, holds the ball better. And with such good option on the bench (Tadić, Mane, Austin), it a real shame to persist with Pelle.

    Graziano looks a little lost today. He still looks unfit from my viewpoint a mere 150 miles from the game.

    Indeed. Could be that he's being held back by injury, but that's no reason to continue with him over better options.

    I'm only 100 miles from the game, so I can confirm you are correct.

    Agreed. But it also has the feeling of a late Austin winner. Even better if said goal is similar to Rickie's injury time bundle here two years ago to win 1-0.
