Meh.
I think it's a product of the way we press opposing teams in their own half to break up their counter attacks as quickly as possible.
We've also scored the most goals in the league.





But you have to laugh at the United "dark side" bit.

Many of those "fouls" and cards have also been unbelievably soft - week after week you see the same offence punished for some teams and not others. What is a straight red one week will be play on next week etc. Look at what Newcastle repeatedly got away with last time we played them (Zadkovich anyone?) Those stats are meaningless.

One nice article and obviously Val felt something wrong with the world, he had to basically be twice as much a twat with this article.

Come on boys lets win this game to give Val the big middle finger!

Let's do this. Just days to go.

His article on Monday was basically implying that it's a disgrace that Jeronimo hasn't been starting and that he proved the coach wrong with his performance on the weekend ... sounds like he'll get a starting XI chance again if Bruce's adductor strain keeps him out. (I still think Jeronimo is not a CF, but that's for another thread)

Surely if Griffiths is fit (and he said he was last game) you would start him at CF with Jero LW, Cirio LM, Fabio RW, Chelo RM and Isais DM.

I'd love to know who he would leave out!

Cirio 4 goals in his last 2 games. Flecha? Or is he saying drop Bruce?
Either way this highlights that he has NFI.

I doubt Bruce will play this week. He was doing light training with Cassio the other day.

Cassio was at training!

I feel we may not need Bruce as much this week.

[RedRis]

Little more than jogging and strengthening exercises by the looks for Bruce and Cassio (It looked like them anyway from a distance).
Chelo I'd say is a chance to play although was training separately from the main group with Melling I think.

I'll move this discussion to the preview thread.
