I do like how the top clubs try out their younger talents rather than h as be them as bench warmers !!!! Doesn't apply to us.

Have you and Roy Hodgson ever been seen together in the same room? Just asking.

I’m sorry but I’m still really on a downer from the Saints game and I don’t see an improvement in result for this one. I was at the Blades game earlier in the season and we were woeful, disinterested and just outfought and out harried. They’ll do exactly the same to us this time and we’ve shown recently we just don't have the appetite for this type of game. Definitely Ward in for Kelly. Kelly has done well as a centre back but my god he’s been so exposed as a right back and has cost us so many times recently. I can’t blame him entirely as he just shouldn’t be playing right back but he has, so the sooner we have a better fit for that position the better. As much as Luka has been off the pace recently too I’d probably put him straight back in to see if that can shake things up in order to stop a repeat of the Southampton performance. Up top I’d definitely select Tosun as we need to see some more of him and I really think there’s a good player / finisher in there somewhere. I’m really not looking forward to it but I’ll be there all the same hoping for some kind of miracle that we actually play some entertaining football for a change.

After the shambles of Soton, I expect a positive reaction whichever team Roy puts out. As to which team and a predicted score, I'll wait until I've heard the injury update and how many great signings we make in the next 80 odd hours (tongue in cheek).

I think you are correct, high press, high energy who dares wins attitude.

Guaita Ward-Tonks-Cahill-PVA McArthur-Luka-Reiderwald Ayew - Wickham - Zaha PVA comes straight in for me, as does Luka.

This is one game I am not looking forward to. One of our worst performance of the season was away against them. They play the type of football that gives us nightmares. I can imagine that we will see Ward and PVA back in which will be harsh on Jairo. I also can’t see him dropping Luka so it will be a toss up between McCarthy and Kouyate.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |
