    Muric, Cullen, Rodriguez, Cork, Taylor, Zaroury, Benson, Ekdal, Al-Dakhil & Co must wonder what on earth they have done to upset the gaffer.

    The golden rule for footy managers is to let the players who won you promotion is to give them their chance in the new division.

    Replacing them with untried kids is not really a proven recipe for success. Is it?

    Muric - no argument
    Cullen - played early doors and couldn’t cope physically in the air and in general

    Rodriguez - was never going to be a starter though has featured - however a squad member in my eyes.
    Cork - hasn’t featured but I think if we’re honest and Jack was aswell he’d thought he’d sub at best.

    Taylor - has played most games / injury

    Zaroury - had played and had opportunities plus I have on authority he’s a bad egg - doesn’t turn up for training - is late all the time

    Benson - featured against Villa and refused to track back and was pulled at half time as left us exposed a lot ( it’s a two way game in premiership forward and back wards.). Imo also injury prone and can’t deal with physicality or the pace of the game.

    Al Dakhil - played a lot early doors and his physical attributes weren’t enough - made bad decisions and it cost us a lot of times.

    Ekdal injury prone - struggled with pace of game when he came back - honest footballer but needs an experienced head at side of him if we want to persist.

    The point made by Lancaster is fair to a point but if you read the above maybe not as much as you’d think - players did play but it was an obvious that we couldn’t compete so signings we’re needed - I’m not saying they got it right but we’d still be having the same conversations if we’d stuck with the championship team minus Tella - maatsen and harwood bellis.

    Let’s not forget all these players earn a lot of money and it’s a job - are we saying that when I / BT - Lancaster played teams we played for never signed players in our positions and we were constantly automatic picks because I / we played well last season - I don’t think so and that simply isn’t how it works.

    Very subjective is this one army88.

    Cullen, Jay Rod, Cork & Taylor have hundreds of games under their collective belts, three of them capped at full international level.

    Rodriguez has proved time & time again he knows where the net is.

    Zaroury, Benson, Ekdal and Al-Dakhil are young men who need nurturing & coaching to get the very best out of them.

    Kompany is clueless, SD could make a silk purse out of a pig's ear, Kompany does not even stand by the players he himself brought in.

    Terrier Taxis is on standby. All they need to do is ask. Gratis.
