Understood, and fair enough, but let me ask you this (genuine) question:

If we are 12th come the final game or two, and only a point or two behind the two or three teams above us, would you rather Hodgson picks our strongest side and priorities finishing 10th, or that he gives starts to the best youth team players we have, and accepts that it might cost us the points?

We played our strongest side and got 1 point from 8 games last season.

It must be so frustrating that actual events destroy all your arguments.

Let's argue with each other until then. If we win we can give it a rest for a few hours before we start again.

Kicked on in the form of consistency, we haven't been involved in a relegation situation at all with Mr Hodgson, that's never happened before to the number of seasons he's been here, that is progress.

No it’s not, merely stabilization with little appetite to climb just be safe.
Must be so frustrating for the players.

 


Bring back Brolin

Of all the people involved with the club I'd reckon the the players are the least disappointed by our current position. One or two might be getting the hump with investment.

You actually feel the players have no appetite.

I guess it depends where we finally finish after the remaining 16 games are played. The teams above us are hardly pulling up trees, so we might surprise ourselves come May.

If we played our strongest side where do you feel we went wrong then considering you seem to believe our manager hasn't a clue with team selection and subs.

You're going to say formation aren't you lol

No! You're wrong! It's not an arguement! It's a debate! This is the Internet and I disagree with you

And..... if it wasn't for Roy, we wouldn't be having it. Completely his fault, but I'd like to thank him for giving us something to discuss during lockdown.

I'm sure some would credit dividing the fans as a masterstroke to keep us all distracted from the grim reality of the COVID world.

How many beers has everyone else has tonight?

Where do I think we went wrong?

Could I refer you back to the topic of the thread?

I'd go for the points, every place earns £££, and also feelgood factor. Don't forget, higher placement means actually winning games, now there's a scary thought...
Also there's no reason why youth team players can't make the bench and be given a 15 minute run out if the game is going well.

The difference between 12th and 10th is worth about £3.5m. Not to be sneezed at, but hardly a game changer. The feelgood factor of a young player getting a chance goes a long way too, and they'll learn more in 90 minutes than in 15.

Maintaining a winning habit is valuable in terms of the players mentality, and form certainly can carry over from one season to the next, but I don't think that's enough for me to come round to your way of thinking on this.

For me, it'll make very little difference in my assessment of Hodgson if we dip at the line and pip a couple of teams to 10th spot.

Probably not as frustrating as being in 13th place with 15 games to go and Roy still at the helm. You must be seething.

 


Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers
