Why is Hendo playing, i thaught FDM was doing well in these games.

Because he's first choice.

 

[rospants]

hope hes fully fit now then

 

[army ali]

Wouls like to have seen Bowditch start. Matbe for Fraser.

That would scare the life out of the Wirral outfit.

 

[ali jenkins]

But if Kuipers is playing well why change it?

Don't know, but Henderson is clearly first choice here now.

thats what i thought, why change something thats working?

I agree, from what Ive seen & heard Fraser hasn't done amazingly although for his age is doing a OK job. I think Bowditch could be more of a problem for tranmere than Fraser.

Glad that Hendo is back in. Even though Kuipers has done OK in the games Wayne was out I was hoping that Wendy would plump for him when fit - hopefully this kind of faith will persuade Wayne to stay in January when managers come knocking. Also its plain to see at the moment playing in League 1 isnt affecting his international career.

what i think it comes down to is that fact that both keepers are good, both are playing very well, but we can't afford to have hendo on the bench or we'll lost him for nothing. hendo is the young international and its not fair to leave him out even if FDM is playin well while hendo is away. IMO.

no calvin zola?

 

[RM-Taylor]

no calvin zola?

Think he's probably injured.

 

[Freddo]

hendo
whing
hinsh
butters
lynch

i reckon thats our best back 4 (5) possible.

 

[ali jenkins]

Said in yesterdays Argus that he is injured.


Also, how would FDM be feeling if he is playing well, knowing full well that as soon as hendo has come back from bench warming for ireland, and hes still left on the bench

I agree, we need to keep Whing as long as possible.

He must realise that he's got to play 2nd fiddle. Hope he takes it well coz he's not a bad 2nd choice keeper.

FDM is playin well, no doubt, but no better than Hendo, he has to be significantely better than him in order to displace our young, only internation, highly valued goalie. IMO.

 

[Bob!]

Bowditch must be getting pissed off.

DW says he can't change a winning side.

He drops Kuipers for Henderson
Lynch for Mayo

but Fraser stays (out of position) on the right side of midfield
