FC Edinburgh part 2

[jardi]

First of all, - for all the recent criticism that Wullie received, - I think he has answered his critics appropriately, - mainly by following the well meant advice that was freely given. However, - he has now proven that the team are more than capable of competing at this level and he must maintain that level of commitment.

One thing that must be added though is that his substitutions were inspired and once again, - he used his own skill to the teams best advantage by assessing the opposition's flaws and then exposing them.

Although it would be tempting to play the same 11, - I would completely change things and let the 2nd 11 prove their worth, - albeit with a string of 1st choice subs to sort things out (if required.) In this way, - you have players challenging for places and hopefully providing the manager with a very pleasant headache of who to leave out in the next game!

More importantly though, it gives him room for manouvre when we next have 3 games in a week, - keeping the players fresh and eager, - rather than jaded players struggling to perform and receiving criticism from the fans.

I would make the minimum of changes to a side who won so comfortably at the weekend as we need momentum although I expect FC Edinburgh to be a different proposition on Thursday. We need to settle on a team who show the desired levels of commitment, as seen on Saturday, so minor tweaks only please.
