West Brom v Everton. 13th Sep at 15.00.

We've worked hard to qualify for Europe mate, why would we jeopardise it mate by fielding significantly weakened teams?

....a win this week gives us a bit of licence to pick more of the fringe players. Saying that, his Europa League side might be fairly settled, expect Besic to start alongside Gibson (if fit). Osman and Atsu you would think. Stones hasn't had much playing time so he might play. Expect Baines to be rested for the young lad. Add Et'o and its not too bad.

Cannot see Bainsey being rested on Thursday, we want our strongest line-up playing and sending a message to the group that WE are the team to beat. Would like a 3-0 win with three different scorers too, Rom, Nais and Kev.

Much as it pains me to agree with chico, what's the point if we're not ready to play Europe and League as well? We qualified, ffs.

You'll have us play "Moylez takes the kidz to Leedz" with this, and we'll be just as back in the weedz as ever. Play to win, or don't play at all, just call in the forfeit. I could be wrong, but it's not likely.

I expect us to go full strength for Wolfsberg at home and rest some key players for the trip to Krasnodar, taking a few senior players (Baines, Osman, Hibbert for sure) to give a good core.

Full strength for Wolfsburg though.

Just watched the post match Rom and Jags interview. Good too see Jags begin both responses to questions with "yes, definitely".

 

[Toffeelover]

Risk coleman getting injured on a cold Russian night or the fatigue of playing against liverpool, Utd and a long trip back and to from Russia in the space of a week? Absolutely no chance he's too vital for the team.

We could play our strongest side against Krasnador and still lose as it's a very tough away match. It's one of those that you snatch a point at, beat all 3 sides at home and we will get past the group stages

That is why we really have to go at the VW team.

Is this the usual response when we win a game against a relegation side ffs the Hare & Hounds bar B Team could beat
WBA come to think of it the Wasps B Team could beat them. I had to be revived three times whilst reading Royal Blue Merseys account of the match, he is obviously a latent football manager judging by his comments about Clean Sheets
and 3 points are the main thing,also his substitutions. Football managers are inveterate liars, with the exceptions of Reid, Hoddle, Busby and RM so far. So I say enjoy the flair when RB is back and [Poor language removed] to clean sheets.
Football journalists voted for Tony Pulis as manager of the year, in my opinion these so called journalists should have been sacked. Tony Pulis at Soke, Howard Wilkinson at Leeds & Mark Hughes at Blackburn should all have been "Warned
Off" for assembling teams of football assassins.
