That's as maybe, but I'd hardly say Barnes has been pulling up trees. He has been playing well since coming back into the side but i'd hardly call him a striker in FORM.

Hey, he scored in the last game, that constitutes form! :lolol:

If you drop a striker after they have scored a goal, then it shows poor man management. Poyet was bemoaning the fact that his strikers never score, and now Barnes (regardless of whether you or syone likes him or not) DOES score, they should be immediately dropped?

If that happened then no strikers would ever go on a goal streak.

I think its been noticeable that when he isn't in the team we struggle.

However, Ulloa will surely start down the middle, with Barnes perhaps on left.

Pleased CMS is playing, i thought we would not see him in an Albion side again - I was told he was as good as gone last week, great if he stays and plays alongside Leo. I wonder if Buckley has an injury?

CMS in for Buckley. So he was injured last week. Who was it who posted that he was gone?

What about Dobbie then, two in two games???...Do you think that was poor man management???
