Nobody Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Amazing the knee jerking for Smith to be given a starting place! Not really, considering he's fighting for a place with Nicky Butt and Kevin Nolan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Smith was actually receiving the ball and turning into space. For the moment I fancy getting annoyed at a rash tackle than getting annoyed over Butts Hollywood passes to the stewards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBG Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Amazing the knee jerking for Smith to be given a starting place! Not if you compare Smith's performance with Nolan and Butt's on Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Harper Beye Taylor/Colo Bassong Enrique (whoever is fit) Nolan Barton Guthrie Owen Martins Viduka Krul, Taylor/Colo (if both fit), Smith, Lovenkrands, Duff, Jonas, Carroll. Butt is never going to be left out of the 18 (although he really should be), nor is Ryan Taylor although I suppose chances are only one of Taylor or Colo will be fit and so Ryan will make the bench, unlucky for Edgar not to make squad, leaves out Shola, Cacapa, Xisco and Geremi. Jonas and Duff to come on and run at them after 60-70 mins. If only eh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 .................Harper.................. Beye..Colo..Bassong..Edgar (if enrique is not fit) ...............Smith................... ..........Jonas....Loven............ .................Owen................ ......Viduka...........Martins.... Is what I hope we see. 1) No duff 2) No R taylor 3) No Nolan 4) No Butt Not going to happen. Smith looked twice the player of our other midfielders. He could pass, and move (btw, I'd drop Owen, put in carrol, but we all know that aint gonna happen any time soon) If we're going 4-3-3 then dropping Owen is ridiculous, he's by far the best suited player in our squad to playing in the hole. Lovenkrands in midfield won't happen either, and nor should it. I'd not be adverse to giving Smith a run but not as the holding midfielder, slap Guthrie there and let Smith play in one of the outside CM roles. I just wanted to fit Loven in I agree though. Guthrie would be better. Besides, we need more than 1 midfielder who can tackle Smith can tackle? Guth can sorta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 let's hope pompey get thrashed tonight,(although i have a worried feeling that they might snatch a draw) goal difference will be crucial come end of the season. I reckon somone will stay-up/go-down based on goal difference alone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MW Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Although it won't happen, Pompey win and their definitely safe so hopefully thel pick up 3 points n not really have anything to play for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Although it won't happen, Pompey win and their definitely safe so hopefully thel pick up 3 points n not really have anything to play for. Surely it's better for there to be another team who could go down, so we want Man Utd to thrash them, us to beat them on Monday, and all of a sudden they're right back in it?
