Originally posted by Holmesdale Hibs Hennessy will be replaced when Steve is fit. Don't think Hennessey is as bad as some make out though. Tompkins was poor yesterday but has been ok in other games. I'd personally go with a back 4 with Ward, Dann, Sakho and Van Aarnholt (sp?). Ward is a better right back than Kelly. Ledley is a squad player and only plays when we have injuries and Puncheon is a decent player who is low on confidence. Schlopp and the new Serbian who's name I can't be bothered googling will put them further down the pecking order, although Puncheon would be good enough to start if he rediscover his form. Surprised Flamini doesn't play more because he's looked ok. I'd also like to see Townsend given a chance. He can be frustrating but at least he makes forward runs and attempts the difficult pass rather than going back all the time. Same goes for Remy. At least we have options after a decent transfer window. Enough is enough with Punch. Rediscovering his form of 2 seasons ago ? 89 PL games over 3 seasons scoring 6 goals. Dann has 10. Whilst some might say that his role is to supply the lone striker he still should be pushing a lot more forward when in possession, getting at the defence. If he can't move the play forward then he needs to be given the chop. Personally I'd be happy to get rid of him in the summer, same with Ledley, and get a real attacking midfield player who is going to put us on the offensive much more, hold onto the ball without weakly giving it away, linking up with the striker/s. If nobody can get anywhere near the striker/s we are going to struggle.

Ward consistently loses his marker.

We need as many of those 4 new players starting ASAP, and also Mandanda and Remy. Remy and PVA are fit. Sakho only possibly going to make the bench. Luka hasn't a visa Schlupp hamstrung We have to get results and get them back but get them back to get results. At the very least have Ledley nowhere near the bench. Maybe Remy on instead of Punch and have Jimmac protecting Tomkins and Delaney. Looks like only 2 CB's 100% fit now so possibly 4-4-2 unless he goes PVA, Delaney, Tomkins, Ward, Zaha in the back 3/5 with Remy actually linking up with wing backs. I wouldn't want Zaha this far back but I could see it happen. COYP

If anyone knows about fitness required it's Sam and the coaching team. We don't need players injured through fitness issues, especially if 0-4 down, which is possibly why Jimmac went off. He was knackered at the end v Bournemouth and then a pointless last 20 mins v Sunderland. Everyone booed but the match was lost, 3 months of football to go and our most productive midfielder we can't afford to lose. At least Sam thinks in the future. Problem is we need reactions right now and time keeps running down. COYP
