Amazed Rutter isn’t starting.

I’m not really. Away from home you want pace in behind and Minteh offers that more than anyone else in our squad. It was probably a JP vs Georgino question than a Georgino v Minteh question.

Went off injured last game. Made of paper.

Apparently, he'd never had an injury before joining us...

Agree with this. We can’t sacrifice a genuine winger in order to give Georgi a starting role.

I think he is a better No.9 than Pedro so is useful on the bench instead if Welbz gets injured or needs a rest.

 

[Flounce]

Lancashire ref who hasn’t given us much in general, except maybe at Newcastle early this season

 

[US Seagull]

Early in the season that Rutter / Welbeck pairing looked unstoppable. Until Danny's injury. I want that back.

 

[Quebec Seagull]

You can get an ointment for them which helps

I just knew someone would make this comment!

Amazed Rutter isn’t starting.

Or Georginio.

 

[OzMike]

Who are the subs ?

Loved the comment from some Paraguayan fans that keeping Gomez on the bench would be like having a Ferrari in the garage and going for a bike ride!

Hoping we might get to see what the hype is about today.

Happens for each new country we get a player from. Percy Tau’s super fans were particularly nuts and belligerent

Without sounding fick, what's happened to Matt O O O O'Riley

Amazed Rutter isn’t starting.

Seems sensible to leave the form goal scorer out.

Who are the subs ?

They're the players that come on to replace someone injured or for tactical reasons ..... Sorry!

 

[ClemFandango]

Or Georginio.

Imagine what it will be like when they both play

That’s a bit like Hughton trying to get Bruno and Saltor in the same team. For one reason or another, they were always unavailable at the same time.

I hope FH does not get this wretched luck with Georgi and Rutter because we’d be unstoppable if we could only get them both playing at the same time.

 

[GT49er]

McConville on bench again - is this an indication that he might not be going out on loan? No Fergie - injured again? Wonder if we'll see a bit of Gomez in action.

 

[BLOCK F]

Amazed (NOT) Dunky is back. We didn't lose when he was out and feel he should no longer be automatically picked when fit.

Disappointed for Webbo, but it comes as little surprise .

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

2 nil to the good guys, these are here for the taking.

 

[Mackenzie]

Amazed Rutter isn’t starting.

Perhaps we’re playing well in the second half for this game?

 

[US Seagull]

Who are the subs ?

Click the twitter link with the line up and you'll see it. They always get cut off when they are embedded here.

 

[dazzer6666]

It is every day bar about ten days of summer, I can confirm!

Ten ? Global warming is real.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Seems sensible to leave the form goal scorer out.

Georginio was a doubt for the Ipswich game so it’s possible he’s not fit enough to start at the moment
