Assuming all still fit from last Sat, which two players would you drop from matchday 18 to accomodate the return of Zakuani & Wilkinson?
Byrne - not giving much ! Probably only in the team for the odd throw-in. Too much of a luxury. Wilkinson will probably be on the bench - and swapped with Eaves at some stage in the game. There is much doom and gloom in other forums - I'm not sure if it's justified. I don't think we'll do much - but we appear to be set up better and fitter than last season ( not difficult ). We haven't played too badly. We worked hard for a good point at Doncaster. Against Bradford we didn't have the best referee - could have got a point. Against MK Dons there was little between the teams - and if it wasn't for a poor penalty ( I haven't said it was deliberately missed ! ), we could easily have had a point. The Southend game was going well - before they scored - the result was probably fair --- unlike the result on Saturday v Shrewsbury. We were battering them for almost 30 minutes - then 2 breakaway goals ! - we took too long in the second half to try to rescue the game - and might have done ( and more ) with clinical finishing.............. so - it's not great - but I think there are enough signs to suggest that we shouldn't be flirting with relegation in April next year.
Put it another way then. A striker and a defender coming back, should the same drop out of 18...say Cundle & Ehmer?
