Is this the weakest bench for a number of years??
Remember Fabianski, Miquel, Chambo, Lansbury, Ozyakup, Chamakh, Sunu?
No, and I don’t want to. To be honest, even if it looks weak, there are still options, I think if the game is tied, Rosicky, Ramsey and Campbell can do a decent job, also Coq can shore up the middle if we’re protecting the lead.
Anyway, injury to Mert and we’re so utterly fucked.
Good point well made.
Remember; maybe I choose not too.
FABIANSKI???!?!? HOW DARE YOU!!!!!
BIt concerned about sanchez starting considering he was in South America on Wednesday night. I would have given Campbell the nod and use alexis as an impact sub.
Maybe atleast joel would finally get some game time! A point today is an absolute disgrace! Coyg!
Joel has had some game time (not much) in the first few games of the season.
Podolski must be fucked off not to make that bloody bench…
Just heard he’s ill, I retract what I said.
Is Isaac Hayden injured too?? Wasn’t Ajayi injured for the Blackburn U-21s game 2 days ago? And where’s Poldi?
Cheer up boys – Rambo is back!
As hilarious as it is to see spuds losing, god damn I find city reprehensible..
Naturally both clubs disgust me but there’s something so hard to swallow about their recent and current successes. Cunts
.. Oh and let’s go boys, 3 points no injuries please
Poldi. Good enough to play for Germany but not us?
If any spares for Wednesday night. Please let me know
poldi has been arshavin-ed. his time with us is coming to a close :/
Wow our defence and that bench looks shit
It’s better than many PL defences. The question is, Is it good enough for us?
Where is Ospina?
Where’s Ospina? Little bit worrying as Szcz isn’t available for Anderlecht!
Cheer up. The squad will look stronger soon with Chambers back from suspension and Walcott getting fitter. Anyone know when Debuchy is due for a comeback?
Debuchy is back around the new year my friend.
I think December.
Spuds have really improved. They conceded only 4 today! What a bunch of losers.
If Ben Arfa’s on point he could do some damage to us today. Flamini will have to do a disciplined job on him. I’d appreciate it if we could fly out of the blocks and get this over before it starts, but when does that ever happen.
Big match today, considering where we lie in the table, what our recent string of results has been, and who/where we’re playing.
Hull have spent some smart money this summer on players to strengthen them for European football, but they’ve also bought players who weren’t away on international duty (unlike our entire non-injured squad). A strong start to the game today is important, or we could find ourselves having another Villa-esque reaction from the home fans.
Hull had over 10 away on international duty.
We had a strong start, unfortunately the hull referee is making it difficult for us again……
Hahahaha
4th place my arse.
Get ready for the firestorm after this game if we don’t win. The over reaction, the insulting the manager, the drama
it will be justified, the tactics are are prozac and the manager is hemoraging points in persuit of a formation that just isn’t working. Now 11 points of Chelsea!!
The situation kind’a warrants some insulting, to be honest
It is coming sooner than you think – can’t believe we are getting beat by dull
Season is basically over in October
Well we got an equaliser but tend to agree with you Henry, chance, goal
Nacho is not a centre back because he attacks wingers and is out attacking and trying to assist, flamini may have done better gr8 goals sanchez and welbeck, remember kosc and chambers missed this game anything happens in footie games, rambo returns gd match fitness, sczny looked baffled by attacking hull side,
