Unchanged
Same team. Might work actually. What's up with Sakho again? Strop or injury?

Berahino to score today?
Berahino to score today? Based on the fact he isn't currently. I heard sakho is injured. And to think we are looking at a third highly injured player in sturridge for next season.

Like the fact that there are no changes. Calleri needs a run of games if he is going to show what he's capable of. 10 minute cameos are no good for a players confidence.positive that noble doesn't start.

Not sure if Callieri will do it
even if he gets a run of games. Didn't do much with Fernandes' cross ...

Calleri's running off the
Calleri's running off the ball and hold up play has been good, he tends to snatch at things in front of goal though which is a damn pity.
We're pretty good so far, solid at the back but just lacking anything clinical in the final third.

Reid has been immense so far
and Lanzini and Mesuaku are going well. A good first half but we really need someone to finish a movement. Adrian hasn't had that much to do because of our defence so hopefully we can keep another clean sheet.

Maybe we can score through the penalty method.
With Crouch on now, it's going to become more tactical for the last 15.

That's what happens when you have no striker
maybe the dickheads will kee a couple of young kids at home next season rather than send them all out on loan, we could have done with them this season especially when we have a couple of crocks up front.

Frustrated
On the upside: good defensive performance for the second time out, and one more point, inching towards safety. Adrian is my MOTM, and the whole outfit has looked better since he's been back.
On the downside: we'll be in 15th at the end of today no matter what happens between Palace and Burnley. Only 3 points above Burnley now and we have to face them away the last game of the season. Hull have kept pace --can they make up six points on us in three games?
You'd have to have Swansea down for a loss at Old Trafford, in which case they need to make up 9 points on us in 3 games. But if we had won, then we would be mathematically safe now, and we're not. It's frustrating to see Bournemouth soar into 10th instead of us.
Predicted final position: Still thinking 15th

Agree, Fletcher should be given a go
he can't be as bad a shot taker as Calleri, just can't understand why Snodgrass was brought on. To be honest I can see why Antonio and others are upset about how much he is being paid, the way he has been playing he should be paying the club.
