Just show's how poor our midfield is, Very light so a draw today be like a win.

Bruce has options, he just chooses not to use them. Jordan Lyden is a natural replacement for Jedi but he's not a fan of "kids".

I guess we'll see Westwood sitting and pointing with Bacuna and Gardner going box to box. It may just suit our game by keeping it on the deck but you have to wonder what will happen if Cardiff start playing it long. There's no height and I just hope Baker and Chester don't get pulled out of position.

All that considered, I still think we'll have enough to beat them. A goal from open play would be a bonus.

Central midfield is making my eyes bleed

BEM says...

Mile Jedinak misses out today through illness. Over to Westwood, Gardner and Bacuna to add the midfield bite.


I say more like midfield sucks

So, for the first time this season I find myself unable to attend a match or watch it on telly.  My Google-fu has let me down finding a moogy stream so i'm winding the clock back to the '80's and listening to the match on WM. Do they still have that horrible hooter thing when someone scores?

I'm not so confident with that line up. If I'm being kind, I'd say that 3 don't deserve to start (Bunn, Hutton, Westwood) and 3 don't deserve to be on our bench - Cissokho, Elphick, Gabby.

I really hope they can prove me wrong today and I'll be very impressed with Bruce if we get a win.
