I asked the Samba question a few weeks ago to no avail - where the fuck is he??

He was there Saturday. We saw some of the players arriving in the car park and Samba was one of them.

For us to lose or misplace something that big is quite an achievement.

He's not a set of car keys. It's not like he's incon-f***ing-spicuous, now is it.  (c) Bricktop

A comfortable and professional 2-0 with Cardiff losing at Brentford and Wolves world domination back on track after beating, ahem, Reading.

Given this was orginally a Saturday game we surely had sold more than that?

You still bashing on about the crowds?

They have some youngsters with a bit of pace from the highlights I have seen lately. I would rest Hourihane and start Angela and Thor, resting Jedinak. Grabban looks like he's got goals in him all the time, really impressed with him. We need to get a forward option on the bench too.

I think it will be one of those games where we'll win 2-0 and not have to do too much to get the win. Adomah and Snodders with ours.

Agree with your thinking entirely. We need both fresh legs and a bit of pace for this one.

I would 100% just take a win tonight by any means. However, this could be an opportunity to claim ground on the best goal difference in the league. Where we finish could come down to GD

Those kind of wins are going to be vital in the run-in, as we aren't always going to play as well as we did at the weekend.  I think we are now strong enough at the back and have enough quality in the final third to get the exact kind of wins you are talking about.

The only change I would consider would be Jedinak for Bjarnason, as the former may not be able to manage the Saturday - Tuesday - Saturday schedule.  As for the bit in bold, Hogan and Davis were on the bench on Saturday.

Agree entirely. If we don't need to change anything, then don't. Let's make sure we get the job done. Would anyone disagree that our best available starting XI is the one that started Saturday?
