A point for them will likely feel a bigger reward than it is for us. This is a must win. Right now, I think we will. Targett for MOTM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to it mind yes, that excited anticipation that comes from no game in ages, to it suddenly being the very next day. All the hopes, and expectations and then we're a man down and 2-0 down by half time 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well OK I'll give you set pieces, assists and goals from open play, but apart from that was has Hourihane ever done for us? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing he offers us is his set pieces He really splits opinion. For me, he could start as a "10" in a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-4(diamond)-2 or in a midfield three if we are expecting to have more possession, otherwise he is an impact sub. He doesn't do enough out of possession to keep out Henry or Dougie L against good sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, Hourihane is a cdm and the fact that Smith brought in two players in that position speaks volumes for Hourihane, that’s just my opinion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally cdm is clear, but I'm a bit confused that anyone would think that's his best position?, so just double checking you meant that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
