This has 9-4 written all over it.
Mitchell AND Sam on the bench is….interesting.
What the hell does poor old Eli have to do to get a start? Rodriguez has been garbage in last two outings yet still goes straight back in. What message does that send to fringe players. Play well still won't start!!
He has to do what he's done recently more consistently. Ruben hasn't been at his best lately, but he'd still get a starting place over Eli Sam on the basis of what they have offered over the season. The plus point is that Eli's recent form means we seem to have genuine competition.
Not crazy talk at all even the commentators said Rodriguez off the pace. I think Rodriguez is great but not recently. Match day should be on recent merit.
