Interesting to see Lascelles benched too, maybe a little kick up the backside for him. No Colback still feels good It feels fantastic. Gouffran on the wing really makes me nervous though. Pleased Rafa's done something about the defence though, I like Lascelles but he's been costing us points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shush Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 It looks like Rafa is trying to make the side more balanced with what he's got. On top dropping the players who have led to conceding goals. Still think we will lose tonight, just can't see any rhythm or drive in that team. Left flank is hideous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Fine with all of it apart from Dummett ©. More because that indicates he's not getting replaced anytime soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 We're a hefty 4/6 to concede a goal tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we are, even with the squad we have players like Gouffran shouldn't be in the team. They are due to the managers decision not because there's zero alternative.

Guest firetotheworks Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 That left side, man. Dummett hoofing it, Shelvey strolling about and Gouffran being Gouffran. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell if Lascelles needed an arm round the shoulder and some encouragement rather that publicly dropping the Captain. I think/hope it will make him more determined due to his own nature.

I'm not going to defend the existence of Paul Dummett, but I don't mind Gouffran. I think he deserves a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubestationatmidnight Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 What happens when we don't sign a left back and a left winger despite having ages to do so. Crying out for a playmaker that team someone to get on the ball between the lines. We have just been plying counter attack kick and rush since cabaye left and we wonder why we can't break teams down who sit back against us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree on paper, in the little that I saw of the match on Saturday Aarons was really poor. He ran into the player he was taking on at least twice. But yeah, Gouffran.
