Pace in the side last night and yes it was against Sunderland but what a difference it made. Thing is that like Martinez it will in all probability be back to Managers' favourites once again, come the weekend.

Hope not, Kenny, Holgate, Vlasic and DCL all deserve a chance at the weekend and Niasse should be an option on the bench.
Would like to see Holgate partner Keane at the back, how deep we defend due to the age of Williams and Jags causes us no end of problems, if this is a transition season, let's actually phase out the old for the new.

Yes Bigdunc, a good manager picks his best team and not his favorites, this is a big test for him Saturday.

There will be wholesale changes and probably a change of formation again. i'd only make three changes bring in pickford, baines and gylfi for steks, williams and sandro play a 4-4-1-1.

To be fair to managers in general. We are managing as if it's football manager. We don't know about players issues, illness, form, attitude and a whole other bunch of stuff.
There's other things like chemistry with other players and the opposition to consider which I've never heard mentioned by one person on here in all the time I've been posting and it's probably one of the biggest areas.
I'm not defending anyone but let's face it not one of us could manager a premier league football team and the pressures that go with it.

but we could give it a bloody good go BJU.

You're just proving how delusional we fans are!

Why do you think its delusional? Most people can do most things if they put their minds to it. Its about gaining the necessary experience to the job. Football management is no different to other occupations in that respect. There are good managers and bad managers. Success at any team sport comes down to a few basic things the support network in place, the framework you operate in, the desire of the team and a lot of luck.
