It's certainly an 'interesting' line up. Big Albert to bully the their central defenders & put marauding midfielders in on goal? Righto.  ::)

What the fek is that money sponging cockwomble Agbonlahor doing anywhere near the first team???
Someone asked if SB has had a funny turn, I'd say he's been on the funny fags myself!!!

He’s part of the squad. If he’s fit again and can contribute should he not be a part of 18?

Pray tell.......just what has the fat waste of space contributed over the past few seasons????

Which other striker would you put on the bench instead today?

How about O'Hare or Hepburn - Murphy, or Davis if he was fit. Anything but the fat waste of space.

It’s all good and well getting fired up over Gabby but if the alternatives aren’t even available you go with what is. None of the players you’ve mentioned are options. O’Hare isn’t even a forward.

When you consider that it’s really been our midfield scoring most of the goals this season then this line up is fine. What we might also find is less punts up the pitch because we have no target man. We’ll have to play a pressing, possession based game today to win.

So you think the money sponge is??? :o
And Callum O'Hare is a Striker/Attacking Midfielder. But if not up to you standards of who is a forward, how about giving Knibbs or Mooney a chance?

Well yes. He’s positionally a forward. So he is an option off the bench to play that position. It’s not that difficult to understand why he’s there.

So what are you suggesting? Just tell him he’ll never play again for the club? This isn’t FIFA or Football Manager. This is real life and whether you like him or not he’s part of the squad. So as long as Bruce likes him he’ll be picked if he’s fit. It’s not that difficult to understand.

How about he plays a striker that he paid a lot of money for? Oh yeah he’s not very good, well done Bruce, excuses in place already

It’s concerning so far that Adomah is on the left. Not sure who he’s crossing to.

Johnstone looking dodgy on a cross again. CAn't keep giving Nugent chances like the three he's had.
