According to that, a lot of other sources and I'm sure I've read him mention his preference himself, he is.

Every time I've seen him on the wing he's been terrible. He doesn't seem to understand what wing play involves.

Who else feels like this game has a lot riding on it for our greatest ever manager.

No. I don't think it will affect Martin O'Neill at all.

Whilst we can easily level the charges of underperformance and under'runthroughbrickwalls'attitude against most of the team this season, when we pick a team it is on the basis of who we think is best or deserves a chance.

I would like to think Ranieri picks his team on the basis of injury, fitness, performance/attitude in training and who we are playing against.

For instance Benny is now featuring on the bench when previously it has been Big Was.

 

[londonfox]

He certainly doesn't pick a team based on performance/attitude during matches.

Cannot think of a concievable scenario in which we will not get absolutely battered. I'm clinging to the fact that I was thinking the same in September 2014.

Possibly the fact that Benny wasn't named in the 25 Premier League players up to January 1st might have had a bit to do with that.

Me too. Gonna be a ****ing cracker this.

 

[SwedeFox]

Working much harder today. Just hope we don't fold if we get a goal against us

I really hate short corners.

 

[Lako42]

Great performance so far, but if we don't score soon......

 

[Matt_B]

How the **** is that tackle "under control"?

 

[yackandandah]

Red card soon?

 

[SwedeFox]

Great performance so far, but if we don't score soon......

It looks like we actually care though, which is a massive step forward

Looks like this is going okay so far - although you wouldn't know it from the comments on here!

 

[Blaarev]

Bollocks

 

[camberwell fox]

Shit 2-0

 

[Matt_B]

What the hell was Huth playing at. A great performance undone by an idiotic decision.

 

[Blaarev]

Double bollocks

Yes it was going well until the comedy defending show turned up.

 

[yackandandah]

We'd been doing well. Shame. We're offering nothing upfront so we're going have to change the game and take chances.

Blox. No chance now. Game over.
