Watson going is old news, more than likely go on loan.
Scharner is staying/going every 24 hours. There’s a new story everyday.
As for team changes, he changed nothing from the Wolves game including our approach so I believe he’ll stick by the same team (depending on injuries).
If I were the boss, Kirkland would be dropped, how can a 6ft+ keeper get chipped in his own area so easily when he was so close to Berbatov and why does he feel there’s no need to save the ball when it’s on target? I also believe he was poor with the Wolves goal, there really wasn’t any power on that header!
I know everyone’s entitled to their own opinion but to say Figueroa should be dropped? That’s beyond belief! This guy is arguably one of the best left backs in the prem. Also, yes Mario isn’t so quick and has good and bad days but his experience and also some of the things he does on the pitch are fantastic. He is a good player and he does link up well with the right mid playing 1-2’s and getting forward well. Didn’t have a good game Saturday but for me, nobody apart from Diame and Thomas did either.
I would go for:
Pollitt
Melchiot Boyce Bramble Figueroa
Thomas Diame
Sinclair Koumas N’Zogbia
Rodallega
Subs: Kirkland, Scharner/Amaya, Edman, Gomez, Brown, Scotland, Cho.
Gomez is the player who needs dropping, not sure if it’s just getting used to the prem but he’s not good enough, showing no signs of improvement either. Maybe mixing it up a little will help or maybe give him one more chance to show what he can do but up to now Mr Gomez, you’re not really pulling your weight in the big league!
