Nice to see Owen Coyle mixing it up and giving others a try rather than staying with experience. Hopefully we'll have Super Kev putting in a stronger performance from off the bench as opposed to conserving his energy so he can last the full 90.

Seems a little strange not having Cahill starting for this match, obviously with the links over the summer this seems a little suspect but hopefully he's being professional and its just the flu as has been mentioned.

I'd like to see N'Gog putting in a good shift today. I've had question marks over him since signing and it'd be nice to allay some of those fears.

I'm struggling to see how Tuncay would fit into our formation as it stands. The wing didn't do him any good and I see him further up front than he's been playing. Will have to see, maybe after we finish playing the big boys we can see the ultimate plan he's got lined up for Tuncay.


Great to see Muamba back though. I think he's better in the tackle than Reo Coker but not as good all round. I'd much rather have Muamba at his best in there and hopefully we'll see that. It was no surprise to see our best performances this season have come with the likes of Muamba in the team.

Great work, Sir Jinxalot.

He's just been subbed because of a concussion, SKD on.

F-cks sake, OC has bought some horrendous injury karma with him. What did he get up to before he become a born-again Christian, rob old people's handbags?

And Robinson arbitrarily hoofs one 60 yards, straight out for a throw.

I hate waiting for us to lose, wish they would just get on with it!

Davies has a witchdoctor curse to keep him in the team

Hardly Kev's fault the defence ALWAYS seek to boot the ball up to him rather than play to the feet of the midfield which is deemed to be the riskier option. Apart from that the defence has been five star, complete.

Just a thought for half time, perhaps being without Cahill for this match isn't actually doing the overall balance of the team any harm. Although he is a class act in almost every department I do sometimes feel his forward tendencies often leave the rest of the defence, Knight included, exposed to the counter attack.

Doubt it.

He'll come on for Pratley with ten to go if it all.
