Oops! Somehow missed this bit too... Oh dear... It'll be annoying if Brady is injured due to being rushed back.
------------Harper-------------- Rosenior--Faye--Davies--Figueroa Elmo---Meyler---Huddlestone--Quinn -------------Boyd---------------- -------------Sagbo---------------- Subs: Jakupovic, Bruce, McShane, Proschwitz, McLean, Jahraldo-Martin and....? can we even name 7 subs?
That will almost certainly be the team. Maybe we'll see Conor Henderson (assuming he's registered) /Dougie Wilson/Matty Fletcher on the bench.
They're not registered and are over 21 so can't be played without being registered. They won't be available for league games until January.
Yeah, I fear Bruce taking the 'defensive' route of: ------------Harper-------------- Rosenior--Faye--Davies--Figueroa Elmo---Meyler-Bruce-Huddlestone--Quinn -------------Sagbo---------------- Even going back to Ye Olde 3-5-2 would be better than that! ------------Harper-------------- ----Rosenior--Faye--Davies------- Elmo--Meyler--Huddlestone--Quinn--Figueroa ---------Sagbo----Boyd------------
Gedo is reported as being fit. Hate the thought of doing it but is it time to be selective in who plays for what match. Save strongest team for matches like Sunderland and Palace.......
Harper Rosey - Faye - Davies - Figueroa Meyler - Thudd - Quinn Boyd - Sagbo - Brady If Brady is also out: White flag White flag - white flag - white flag - white flag White flag - white flag - white flag - white flag - white flag White flag On another note, Bruce's teams have always been notoriously full of injuries. Is it just coincidence or is it time for him to **** off? I can't remember having injury crisis' like we've had permanently for the last season and a bit.
Maybe that's exactly what were doing. Maybe we're being sneaky and doing it in a way to avoid a Hollowayesque 'fine & resign' situation.
I agree with this about Graham, very good analysis. As for Proschwitz I think Bruce needs to give him a run, his reasons for him not being able to handle the physical aspect don't stack up so I just wonder if it is a personal thing with him and he doesn't rate him or he has some kind of a problem with his attitude.
Not what Steve Bruce said in his press conference. Agreed. Agreed. Which we did. Pkus Jakupovic also played to make up the 4. Easy. Stop the panic ffs. Lol. Fryatt is back monday so you can add him to the squad list. Time maybe to give the kids a go. Topliss, Clappison, Clark as example along with Fletcher and Henderson etc. The Spurs games are free hits whatever happens. SUNDERLAND IS THE NEXT BIG GAME. FACT.!!!!!
looks like Brady and Aluko are not fit. If this carries on the side that takes the field on Sunday will be the same as the one that takes the field in the Lge Cup.
Goalkeepers don't count as overage players in that U21 cup so he could have played. Unless SB was resting him for the big weekend
I've never understood people saying this, what on earth makes you think that him looking garbage in the Championship will make him look anything but in the Premier League? Are there any other players who have proved you right - apart from possibly Cairney. I'd go with Harper Rosenior Davies Faye Figueroa Elmohammady Meyler Huddlestone Quinn Boyd Sagbo Although I can't help but thinking Aluko and Brady will make recoveries and play to be honest.
But on the plus side: "His Gradad's from Ull, His Grandad's from Uuuuulllll !, That Lewis Holtby, His Grandad's from Ull !" Not that it will make the slightest difference!!!
