If Vip doesn't start today after getting 2 in 2 including that 35 yard thunderbolt and a public vote of confidence from the manager then there is no hope for him at the club. The key is getting the wingers in behind the full backs so that he can receive the ball facing the goal rather than with his back to it.

And the key to THAT is playing with quick ball and not the turgid walking football nonsense that we saw against Plymouth.

Yes but VP needs to be positionally in the box when the crosses come over which he hasn't been good at. He did it well against Watford so he needs to be on his toes in the box making those runs

True, or it means giving him the ball to his feet at a rate faster than glaciers melt. We all know that he has a right boot like a cannonball but he can never utilize that strength if it takes us ten passes to get the ball to him, and even then its up on his chest with two defenders up his arse.

If the rumours of him being off are true then he may not even be in the squad today. Deserves a start though after scoring in the last 2

This picture makes me think Hillsborough is located up in one of the many Welsh Valley Towns. The topography that does it, I think.

Our best 11

Agreed. That's our best lineup we have and had in a very long time. Win, Lose or Draw. No complaints here.

Our best 11

Can’t argue with that lineup
Pretty much exactly the team I had advocated for except for Stamenic starting instead of Yalcouye

Can pretty interchangeably switch from 4231 to 4141
