Remember how we do things. When a team needs a favour doing, who's always ready to oblige?

Anyway, fucker the fucks.

Bruce has done wonders with addressing the lack of fitness, morale and ending that bad streak.
Not to mention how good it is to see a coach that's involved and coaching form the sidelines during games.
But there is this nagging feeling he been a bit lucky with some results...and this fixation trying to shoe-in  Gabby and Westwood isn't exactly insightful ....

I can understand why he might 'rest' Adomah, since I thought he was poor on Saturday.
It's a slightly better team that that which turned out at Leeds but the debate about Westwood and Gardner here tells you all you need to know about our problems.

Gardner was shit on Saturday - but Westwood? And wtf is it about Agbonlahor starting? Think Brucie's got this one wrong - but that's not the first time I've said that and been proven wrong

While I'm not happy with Gabby or Westwood it has to be something to with squad rotation. At least those are the straws I'm clutching.

These are vulnerable.  If Bruce would deviate from the plan and actually pick a side to go at them in the first 10-15, they could fold.

My concern is he has once again gone for respect the point, hoping for Gabby to either keep hold of the ball up top (ha!) or chase lost causes (double ha!). Ayew starts at home and even though he has been a bit subdued lately, if he's good enough to start as your preferred wide option at home, he is good enough to do it away.

Kodija might be OK with drifting in from wide, but he is currently the closest thing we have to a top gun, mobile centre forward. Pick your best attackers and have a bit of balls.

Oh, and apparently Gabby played well at Brighton according to Bruce.   ::)

The entire right hand side of our attack is missing Westwood behind Ayew and Gabby. Not promising at all
