Definitely Yalcouye for Widdell - super motivated and on a yellow already.

I’d prefer Yalcouye for Fulton and have both him and Widell on.

The best way to win this is to keep on the front foot and drive at them. If we sit back I think they’ll score.

On this I agree
Would rather keep Widell on and let him take a more central attacking midfield role and let Yalcouye take on the battling midfield dog role

Time will tell I suppose. We signed him on a 4+1 year deal

I agree, he looks like a Sunday league footballer to me when he gets into action area's. I would have no confidence in him scoring a 5 yard open goal.

Hopefully he will prove me wrong, but I think the script will be, hooked at the 60-65 mins mark with no impact.

I feel confident we'll see this out and get 3pts despite the shady end to the half. We look the much better 'collection of footballers' (not sure I'm ready to call us a proper 'team' yet).

Worth remembering we're one nil up. These threads are getting more and more depressing

Blooming heck Smurph - I’ve been at games under Laudrup when we’ve been smashing the opposition in the premier league and there’s been more criticism than there’s been in this thread…

Yep.

This thread is just another bitchfest.

Fulton for me has not been any better than Franco and In fact probably worse.
Innousa looks like he’s run a marathon already. The man looks foooked!

He always looks fucked, even whens hes been on 10 minutes

 

[ABSwan]

Wonderful feignt from Eom then. pity about the final pass, didn't quite come off

 

[ABSwan]

Better from Innoussa there

 

[Pegojack]

Feckin cross it!

Feckin cross it!

Bit harsh, it wasn't an easy one and it was cut out for a corner

Cabango and burgess love a aimless hoof when not under pressure

I agree. This needs energy.

Plus the box looked empty of our players.
