Being annoyed that a better player is being benched for a very important game isn’t unreasonable tbh.

No, but calling Howe Pardew is down right ridiculous.

Many soiled breeches in here because a player who's been in the country for 3 days and has had maybe 2 training sessions with the team isn't starting one of the most important matches of the season.

 

Aye much safer bet to stick with the players who have us on 15 points from 21 games and only managed a win last game due to their keeper fumbling a pass back into his own net.

Bottling the decision would be to start him tbh. He'd face absolutely no scrutiny for starting him so this is a ballsy move.

 

That's not to say it's the right decision like, it's definitely one that's bringing my trust of Howe into focus. Hopefully it pays off.

 

Will definitely be avoiding here as much as I can if we lose like. :lol:

It's a must win game. Let's start the guy who's had like maybe one training session and been in the country for 3 days after travelling across the world. Fuck cohesion and how he gets on.

 

Christ, the reactions on here you'd think he was starting ASM in goal and Dubravka up top or something.

What about the rest of them , must have travel issues also coming from Brighton et al

Any other position on the pitch I could understand it but we know what our CM’s are like. Bruno could’ve landed from Brazil at 7:40pm tonight and he’d still be a better option than that other pair.

Should have started Bruno. Crowd reaction would be all the better and think that would have given the players an extra lift. 
 

Not convinced he’s made the right call here

If Bruno had been here for the past week, then he would have started. As it is - it's been 3 days. We are just gonna have to wait and see what happens.

 

I also remember Cisse coming on from the bench, on his debut (scored a great winner v Villa)

The issue is we desperately, desperately, need a change in midfield, we know our current midfield is not up to it and, as you say, this is a must win game. Better to take the risk of playing him and it possibly not working than play a midfield we know is not going to be good enough.
