I don't see any reason why Targett would start ahead of Taylor when Taylor was one of our better players on Saturday. Only change I think we will see is Dougtanian in for Hot Lips. Even then, I wouldn't be amazed if all eleven are the same as against Tottenham.
you see this thinking is the problem i have,
Elphick, Hutton, Albert, Whelan if we had kept them and played any of them on Saturday they might well have had a good game
they were all capable of putting in a decent performance from time to time
people like you would be saying yes they had a good game keep them in
but they are championship standard players now,
when are we going to realise that you not going to move forward by keep playing Elmo and Taylor who in the bigger wider picture of where we are hopefully trying to go are not anywhere near good enough to hold down first team positions
we don't know if Target and Guilbert are Premier league quality although Target had obviously played there before
but do know that the likes of Taylor isn't, add to that Elmo and Connor
good back up maybe when needed
it might sound harsh but we are premier league now,
if we keep playing championship standard players when we hopefully have proper upgrades not even making the bench we will find ourselves in trouble and only have ourselves to blame
Smith needs to be braver sometimes, he's spent 133 million to compete in this league lets start using them
i think he will go with the same team on against Bournmouth which might be good enough to win but we need to bed players down before Everton or we will be falling behind
i was frustrated and deflated with his line up against spuds, i knew exactly how it would go when i saw it,
all the hope for a good start evapourated,
maybe we would have still lost no matter who we played but come on i thought this bloke gave it a go wherever he went
