According to Smith Hause was outstanding in a practice match in midweek .So why is he not playing ?.As the weeks go by i am finding it hard to understand some of his team selections and decisions

I don't know what people were expecting in the transfer window but 6+ new players was perhaps a tad optimistic.he came with a reputation of swashbuckling no fear attacking football inside 3 months he's morphed into a combination of Bruce,Lambert and Mcliesh

Not sure what else he could with the squad we have. Put Mings at left back thereby continuing to play an injured Chester?Rely on Hause who looked iffy defensively on his showings so far? Put Hutton at LB and bring in that defensive colossus Elmo at RB (given Bree gone)? I was disappointed with our window dealings too (esp the lack of a new DM) but you can't lay that all at Smiths door.

Whelan played well last week. Hourihane can go missing but has still set up two and scored one in his last four starts, so it's not like he contributes nothing.People seem determined to moan whatever team he picks. Smith isn't to blame for Grealish being injured.

We're the leading scorers in the league since he came in, even with players that we all want nowhere near the squad.
