No way SJM should benched for Sunday, we need his energy and combativeness. Stories today of him being Rodger's Number 1 target for the summer!
Pick the best side available to you. That means that SJM plays and either Hourihane, two goals last game but that absolute shite for months prior to that, or Whelan, generally pants but played really well last week (contract coming to an end is is Glen?), sit it out, particularly as Whelan won't be here next season and that there is no room for sentiment. Or, play Mr consistent, John McGinn? Absolute no brainer.

His passing was woeful.he was trying to do the work of 3 men for a start we basically had a one man midfield Anyone who thinks we should drop McGinn on Sunday has got rocks for brainsI sometimes wonder whether people have got the slightest idea about football sometimes

I thought they had been trying SJM at left back in training enabling Hause to play in Elphick's place with SJM looking like a better option than Taylor
Quote from: in exile on March 08, 2019, 04:02:27 PMI thought they had been trying SJM at left back in training enabling Hause to play in Elphick's place with SJM looking like a better option than TaylorI believe he was playing LB in training due to his ban and wanting to drill the available midfield players without him rather than looking at him as an alternative LB. There could be an argument for him to play there given Taylor being the only option however we need his drive in midfield and it doesn't make sense to restrict ourselves by playing one of our strongest midfielders out of position until Axel, Chester or Elphick recover from injury. We'll just have to hope Taylor or one of the U23s can do a job at LB.
Did you watch the last match John?
