    I trust the manager. That doesn't mean some of his decisions shouldn't be questioned - not necessarily to criticize, more in order to understand why.

    True. We’ll never know what second half we would’ve had if Gordon stayed on, but the man in the hot seat has to take the decision.

    To understand why Gordon was subbed and not Murphy? Gordon is still work in progress and yes he had a decent half, but so did Murphy imo. I would like to see Wilson and Isak start, the partnership seems to work. As for the question, I trust Eddie’s decisions even if sometimes some of us might disagree or wonder why?

    Absolutely. We need to get behind our players regardless.

    I'm sure Eddie had a good reason to sub off Gordon, but it wasn't necessarily evident why. Maybe some of you knew. Nothing to do with trust or lack thereof

    We needed the extra threat of Isak, don’t think it was anything more than that.

    Don’t agree about starting both, until we have another striker on the books we need to manage both of them in a way that gives us the best chance of keeping both fit through till the end of the season.
