Not seen such Bravery!
I suspect that Rosenior on the bench vs Cardiff is most likely.

dunno. Albion played no over 21 players for that Everton game.

This is obviously where we differ in opinion. He only played about five games but I thought he played really well. I'm not sure what you expected but we did really well with him in that position. He played left back for Hull in the FA Cup Final less than two years ago. I never understood the suggestion he wasn't a good enough left back for us!
Goldson played (and scored) against Norwich.

Hughton said over a week ago...
""Gaetan and Liam will be quite close. I think they will be fairly close to coming into the game on the Saturday. (Cardiff)
“We won’t be too far away and we still have Calde who has come in and performed well for us in that position.
“Left-back is not one we are overly concerned about but there might just be that little gap.”

If you follow the dull updates each week via the pressers then you'd find it hard to argue that the club has been anything but straightforward and transparent about their progress. And fairly regular with updates. Even now Hughton is more confident but rightly hedging his bets given they've both had 3 month + lay offs.

Nobody ever said that he wasnt good enough. He wasnt up to the standard of Bong but the bjggest problem was that we lost him on the right of midfield and didnt have adequate defensive cover for him. This weakened the side overall and because he was right footed , as was Calderon Murphy suffered with lack of service. and in turn so did the strikers.
You don't want players vandalising stuff for their goal celebration, or we'll have kids all round the country emulating them.

For once I agree. Liam is the ideal player to have in your squad, to my mind he is an excellent full back, (either right or left), equally good at centre half, and of course can do a great job in midfield, (wide, or as a holding player). Not too much that he can't do in my opinion.

I'm a big LR fan, but I would have BIG reservations about him playing in the middle of our defense.

Well with a bit of luck and a following wind, we won't need to put it to the test. We are well served there with Greer, Dunk, Goldson, and when he returns, Huhnemaier.
Rosenior has played plenty of games as centre back at Hull though, and done a very good job there. I wouldn't have any qualms.
In some ways he is our modern day Adam E-Abd. Another utility player who could fit in fairly seamlessly in a number of positions. The only worry with that sort of player though, is that one sometimes wonders what their best position really is. Hence the phrase jack of all trades, master of none I suppose.

Yellow will do - same as taking short off. I can't see how it's a red!
The yellow for shirts off is just for the sponsors isn't it, as they want photos to show the adverts? Maybe you're right, but it was a pretty stupid thing to do.

I expect the official paid for the bench.

Yep. One of them will be on the bench or better. Rosenior just confirmed as being in the squad for Hull.
Unusually the club has announced it in its injury round up pre- Tuesday
