I doubt we have enough fit players to make sweeping changes. My worry is that the style we play will take it's toll so we will need some form of rotation at times.

Could Delph play the advanced role?? He can't tackle, but he can shoot, pass, be quite good on the ball... is it worth trying him out there at some point?

I've said more than once i'd like to see Delph given the chance in a more attacking role. He may be pants there at this level but i've thought it could be his best position and should at least have the chance.

I have always thought an advanced role for Delph would suit his game more, but think Holman-Ireland are ahead of him at this moment and it is a difficult time to be experimenting .......

3-1 win for Villa with Benteke, Weimann and Bent for us; McAnuff for them

Bit vague that, can you be more specific mate?

Well if we can't win this one, who can we win against at home? I take us to win a hard fought game 2-1

Well if we're not winning these games we really are going to be in big trouble.

I think they will come and have a go, which might help us.

But you could replace GA with Delph in the left-sided support role for Benteke ...

I read somewhere that the  Reading player credited with creating the most chances for them this season was a certain Nicky Shorey...

surely some mistake?

Although it's still early in the season, this is a 6 pointer. Lose this and we are in big trouble.
