GMC Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I haven't been around these parts for a while but I'm finally getting down for a game... at probably the worst time! I'd loved my first game to have been at Goodison but this one worked out as my mates living 10 mins from Selhurst so I'm down visiting him and off to the game today - albeit in the home end. Hoping for a win; expecting a drab 0-0! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Probably the most balanced team we’ve had all season. Dropping Rooney and playing Sigurdsson in his strongest position is the right move in my opinion. Disappointed that Vlasic isn’t involved but appreciate Lennon’s role in support of Kenny.

Aidan Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Not a bad side. Rooney dropped to the bench, I think I would rather him than sigurdsson. Nice to see Sandro on the bench too, hopefully he can get on the pitch at some point today. Not so sure about Morgan, I would have him with the U23s until next year.

Bill Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Vlasic not down as injured in the fantasy football, it's a bit of a mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 I hope we win today I really do, but Unsworth's refusal to play Vlasic is so frustrating. Whatever the issue is it must be resolved, he is one of our better players and the teams chances are reduced if he is not available. I want Unsworth to explain why he is not even in the squad.

Newty82 Posted November 18, 2017 Report Share Posted November 18, 2017 Good balanced team. Players where they should be. I had a dream last night that we were 3-1 up at half time. But it was at home. Against Chelsea. And Big Dunc bagged 2. Not sure if that means anything really... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, unhappy. We need goals. Gana will get forward, but if he scores it will be a big surprise. If Unsworth wants to use 4-2-3-1, then Davies should be one of the 2 DMs, as he will get forward and is much more of a threat to score. I prefer 4-1-3-2. Five attackers, including 2 strikers. I’m an Unsworth supporter, but not this formation or DM pairing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He' not picking one player, so must have his favourites. I just think it's likely to be down to pace and his defensive frailties. Vlasic has made errors when helping us to defend. Unsworth just seems to want to play out and out wingers with the pace and energy to really work those sides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsworth just seems to want to play out and out wingers with the pace and energy to really work those sides I happen to not think it’s because Unsworth has favourites, but we both know that if this was Koeman not playing an obviously talented player (or even having him on the bench) you’d have comments about it.

I'm sorry are you saying Vlasic doesn't have pace? He is not a great defender I grant you but he is creative, and that is one of the things we have so sorely lacked. He was one of the most creative players when he was playing, to leave him out of the squad without explanation is moronic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
