On the basis that IMO AM is incapable of really stirring the players into anything like a good, winning performance at home, I think this will be another home defeat - 5th on the trot and 6 out of 7.Once we get into a relegation battle, AM has the track record to take us down - it's his strength.

You have to score more than the other team if you want to win. It's not about a player having 3 or 4 good games in 2 seasons.It's amazing how you think the sun shines out of Bents arse based on last seasons form, yet you dismiss Ireland on last seasons form???Ireland has looked quality, hungry and committed in the last few weeks the complete opposite to Bent.So based on recent form and not last season, yes, I pick Ireland over Bent.Ow and Ireland has as many goals as Bent since Bent came back from injury.Ireland's form last season? What was that like, then? Do you mean when he was throwing strops and refusing to move house here, or when he was out clubbing and being ill at Newcastle?And Ireland's got as many goals as Bent since Bent came back from injury? All of a few weeks ago. One swallow does not make a spring, especially not in the case of Ireland.Paulie, you know exactly what I mean, I was responding to criticism of Ireland.Shall I change my mind so I fall in line with everybody else?

What of it? That's the bit I don't understand.I don't want you to change your mind, your opinion is as valid as anyone else's, but if you're going to bang on about Bent every day, don't be surprised if people argue with you!
