It's not unusual to play your strongest available side in the league and use the cups as an opportuinity to rotate.


What about when your best players are so knackered they're no longer your best players?


That would be a less than perfect scenario, however I don't think that happened to us this season.

David Villa about to sign for Barca.
Thats one off our list then.

Terry Henry anyone ?


Not unless we're starting a Volley Ball team for formerly great players who can't be arsed anymore.

He hasn't had the best seasons but I must have missed something if we're all of a sudden that good that Terry Henry wouldn't improve us.

He will be 33 when the season starts but I would still have him for sure.  Gabby and Fonz could learn more from 1 yr with him, than 10 yrs with Carew and Heskey.

Footballing wise you may have a point, but being Irish I'm allowed to be biased and he can go fuck himself.

I agree, as much as I am a Petrov fan, there has been numerous occassions over the past 2 seasons where he has contributed little after the 70 minute mark and at that stage I have no doubt NRC, Delph or even Sidwell would make us stronger for the closing stages.
