This simply isn't true...Palace always looked like scoring although admittedly we also looked quite threatening until the penalty. A 0 0 away performance sometime soon would be lovely but we just don't look like shutting many teams out at the minute. Which means we need to keep scoring.
Hull City Official ‏@hullcityteam #hcafc Starting Line-Up: Stockdale, McShane, Hobbs, Chester, Brady, Elmohamady, Bruce, Meyler, Quinn, Boyd, Gedo
-------------------Stockdale--------------- ----------Chester---Hobbs-----Macca------- --------------------Bruce------------------ --Elmo---------Meyler---Quinn-------Brady-- --------------------Boyd------------------- --------------------Gedo------------------- That's it, Koren dropped to the bench.
And Brady for goal number 2. Scared about Macca being there though, as I said; remember last season at Burnley when Rosie was suspended. What a nightmare.
Very different Macca this season though. Guess this is our way of locking up at the back. We can afford to do this now that we have a strike force that score, and so can have some defensive (semi) midfielders. 0 - 2.
Starting Line-Up: Stockdale, McShane, Hobbs, Chester, Brady, Elmohamady, Bruce, Meyler, Quinn, Boyd, Gedo Subs: Jakupovic, Faye, Rosenior, Koren, Fathi, Simpson, Proschwitz Surprised that Koren is on the bench and mcshane is in. We must be playing a bit more defensive.
Whilst I agree with Bruce's decision to drop Koren and play another defensive minded central midfielder, Bruce Jnr should not be that man. Both Evans and Fathi should be ahead of him in the pecking order.
All I can say is that this an incomprehensible decision. Bruce Jnr over a seasoned top-class international....makes no sense!!!
To all the ****ers who dismissed the Macca inclusion, go ****ing swivel, an absolute star and muststart every game, bollocks!
I haven't looked back through this thread, but I can't remember too many having any issue with Macca, it was Bruce in midfield that several objected too.
