    Considering Roseniors supposed injury and Harper not playing very well.

    Guzan
    Chester, Gerrard, Hobbs, Dawson
    Amoo, Koren, Evans, Devitt
    Homer, Fryatt

    With Mclean and Barmby as impact/super-subs.

    What do u reckon? <cool>

    I'd forget Amoo, he doesn't look like he's going to cut it, swap him for Belaid or Garcia and stick Cairney with Evans and move Koren out wide.

    Agree with OLM on the cow front.

    Maybe a 4-2-2-2?

    The midfield being:

    Cairney Evans
    Koren Belaid

    I'm gutted to hear about Rosenior - he's been our best player with Chester & Fryatt..

    Chester will do a job at RB he can clearly be trusted at ANY position in the back 4.. very good player. I don't want Macca back or Kilbane we've moved on..don't think Hobbs is a fullback so he should move to CB with Gerrard.

    Amoo is rubbish! Doesnt look like he's got a clue how to play football.

    What? Where has all this Amoo criticism come from? He comes on, runs at defenders and provides width we haven't had for the previous 80 minutes. Has he done one single thing wrong? I must have missed it if he has.

    Belaid deserves a start. Maybe in place of Koren who is only interested once Barmby comes on, he just ****s about like it's a training exercise for most of the game. He knows he's undroppable given his talent but he has to start using it soon or he can be dropped for me.

    Yes he might come on and run at defenders and stand out on the wing, but that hardly accounts for a good footballer.

    1. He can't control the ball.
    2. He can't run in anything other than a straight line and if he does, see 1.
    3. Yes he wins the odd corner but thats only because he cant cross the ball past the first man. Come to think of it, I dont think I've seen him kick the ball above knee height.
    4. Without the ball he's a bit of a headless chicken, doesnt know who or what to mark and tends to run around in circles.
    5. 5 minutes from the end the ball broke (South West corner, 1-1, City on the attack) Amoo had a headstart on Hoolahan, yet, despite being a former sprinter was second to the ball. Hoolahan clearly had more desire to get to the ball, and easily cleared the ball. I was out of my seat screaming at him!

    No official confirmation (as far as I know) but it looks like he's done his shoulder in and will be out for the season.
