Yeah, if he'd done that we'd have definitely won. Because football is really that clear cut.

Guly is fourth choice, as in if two of the first three are needed he will play up front and the midfield will shift around.

What's wrong with it? Error message?

He was in his best form for us last season whilst playing up front.

Bit of a difference there. Chamberlain is good enough to start in the Prem, let alone the NPC. Ward-Prowse may well be good enough to compete for a first team place, but he didn't do enough to oust one of the four CMs who have been very good so far this season.

Very overrated, i'd put him on the same level as Forte in all honesty. Had a full season in this league with Palace and did nothing.

Who drops out of Chaplow, Hammond, Morgan and Cork in that case? If we had 7 spaces then it would already be happening IMO, but impossible with just 5.

Name a better fifth choice striker in this league, and i'll agree he should be sold.

As for your last comment, that is pure mental. We have, IMO, the closest thing to a complete squad we've had in at least 10 years.

Please stay on topic

I would be more than happy with complacently averaging 2 points a game for the rest of the season.

I think if Chaplow was going to be on the bench saturday, he'd have started tonight.

-------------Davis Frazer-Fonte-Hooiveld-Fox SDR-Hammond-Chaplow-Lallana(?) --------Lambert--Guly If Lallana isn't fit, then Guly back in midfield with Barnard up front.

We've lost far more important games than this before - with our full first team - and bounced back to win the next one. Plus I don't think any of those 3 will play.

I fully agree with Adkins team selection. I'd rather take a chance without Guly, Barnard and Lambert and have them in good shape for saturday than take a chance with one of them and risk them being jaded.

Oh well. Back to the really important business of the league. At least we'll have a week off where others are playing on the Tuesday.

No...needing a cheap back-up with pace was what that signing was about.

Indeed...but to be any good at free-kicks, you need to score one a week apparently.

Lambert free-kick...saved by Price.

10 changes to the team - you can't really take anything from this result.

2-0, pretty much game over. Oh well, onto Boro.

Penalty to Palace, Harding brought Williams down. Come on Bart!

Brilliant.

Lambert coming on for Holmes.
