ALL of our bench should have started today.


Recommended Posts

Subs:

Bywater

Llera

Beevers

JJ

Semedo

COG

Madine

Today's starting 11 should have been:

Bywater

Lee / Llera / Beevers / Jones

Antonio / Semedo / McCabe / JJ

COG / Madine

The only one I'm not certain on is Madine. Maybe I'd have kept Rodri instead.

Poor team selection, in my opinion. Taylor, Gardner, Bothroyd and Pecnik shouldn't be anywhere near the starting 11.

I know what people are saying but Bothroyd, Barkley and Taylor will play.

Bothroyd and Barkley wouldn't have come just to sit on the bench, Everton will probably have insisted Barkley plays.

Not sure if QPR would have insisted but Jones will play him no doubt about that.

As for Taylor of course he ain't gonna drop him, he has just been made captain.

Probably true but its wrong and it could cost us.

Cant believe Semedo wasnt starting. Has he been poor recently?

My god you lot are changeable

I wonder if you were in the Semedo/Madine/Beevers is sh it camp after Wednesday.

Up until Taylor decided he wanted to be a footballer i thought he and Gardner were doing ok better than Beevers has played most of the season deffo .

Madine was woeful against Hudds.

Barkley is better than every midfielder we have except McCabe

Bothroyd hasn't done anything yet.

Semedo hasn't been good most of the season.

Taking a step back, its difficult to argue with the viewpoint that in Bothroyd we have a proven Championship striker with recent England recognition, in Taylor a top quality centre back with a ruck of Premiership and championship experience, and in Barkley a kid who is rated as one of England's finest since Rooney.

I don't question the player's quality on paper, but we're not anywhere close to a 'team' yet.

We are like a team of all stars playing in a benefit match - all right on paper, but playing as eleven individuals. We need to gel very quickly or we will really be in the mire.

Today's in-players are tomorrow's out-players, tomorrow's out players are today's in-player, and the circle of fickleness keeps on spinning.
