Martins giving Kinnear a really good reason to sub him

 

That's the thing, for all his pace, he's done nowt when he's got it these last 10 minutes and the ball's keep coming back at us.

 

clueless

 

What was wrong about my statement up until the goal?

 

If you have to ask you are worse than I feared. One he has had a very good game for us, two he was keeping the Pompey defense on their toes..

 

Well no, his contribution in those 10 minutes before the goal was giving the ball away, being put through clear twice and being tackled easily, giving up on one chase, and having a shot which went for a throw-in.

 

Clueless, as I said..

Wouldn't mind Duff on for Zog right now either.

 

Why?

 

So he can track back and provide some extra cover on Kranjcar.

 

And why do we need that? Joe Kinnear school of thinking there.

 

I'd have Duff now as he can keep possession and time waste well, whereas Zog has cocked up in that sort of situation before.

 

That is not untrue actually. Sometimes we could use a man that has the ability to make nothing happen for long periods of time.

Trying to protect a 2 goal lead at home against Stoke with 45 minutes left is idiocy.

 

Trying to protect a 2 goal lead away against Portsmouth with 10 minutes left is pragmatism.

 

I just don't see the point in changing things, we're not exactly struggling. If nothing else it gives them a boost if we show we're worried.
