Was that a film with Al Pacino?

Yes - with script written by BG.

 

[Zebedee]

Best is Best. You know it makes sense, especially in Hughton's eyes.

 

[Mackenzie]

Same as Saturday but O'Grady instead of Best.

If they are all fit start with the same 11. Best needs to be given a bit of a run to see if he can produce, it is tough being the lone striker. However time is running out for him. He is a bit more mobile than COG and put balls in from wide for advancing midfield men. However if he does not come off I think COG will be back for the next away trip.

CH has decided Holla and JFC are not in his long term plans (for this division at least)

i would leave best on the bench hes been poor in the recent games he has started and its like playing with 10 men when he does

It was the porno version.

Difficult to justify changing a winning team.

But - maybe:
Hughes for Greer;
Ledesma (if fit) for Calderon (very tough on Calde after his goal scoring exploits, so maybe play Calde at RB instead of Bruno, or start with Calde at RM and bring on Ledesma later for game time);
COG for Best (unlikely; we may have to accept that Best is now the new JFC (undroppable)).

My thoughts exactly, even including the lack of decisiveness on the changes.

I see Dunk's position more under threat than Greer's. He needs a good solid game on Tuesday.

 

[Diablo]

Keep CMS out, COG on if not from start at half time....Keep Lua Lua for last 20 mins....Apart from that team as yesterday, whilst defence ropey don`t think can change and remember only few weeks ago Dunk seemed to be our only hope of scoring goals.

Not much to chose between them Saturday but on recent performances I think that Dunk edges it and perhaps Hughes should get a chance.

Wow! You were clearly watching a different game to me.
Dunk was culpable in all 3 goals while in each instance Greer was the other side of the box marking his man.
I know which one I think could benefit from a break.

That said I suspect we will go with the same starting lineup. Leeds are a big side and have pace. They will target our full backs so a defensively oriented midfield and a back four used to playing together makes sense rather than make changes and risk misunderstandings.

 

[BensGrandad]

Yes Dunk was at fault for the goals but his general play has been better in recent games than Greer and rather than major changes I would rest Greer and bring in Hughes. But I would be happy if it was Dunk replaced by Hughes who deserves a game to see if it improves our defence at home.

Never change a winning team.. ogrady 4 best

Never change a winning team.. ogrady 4 best

I reckon same side that started saturday ...Leeds will obviously target Tex

How was he at fault for the 3rd?
It was Ince who let Novak turn and score.

Scarcasm is the words used by people not sufficiently intelligent to make their point in a normal manner, I was told.[/QUOTE

Sometimes, when intelligent comment fails to persuade someone that they are wrong, sarcasm can be a way of emphasising just how wrong they are.

Your comments about Stockdale's penalty save in particular are a case in point.
