Uwe vs Dunk

Was surprised when I saw that Uwe was starting over Dunk as I felt Dunk had a top performance against Wolves. Then Uwe got well beaten in the air for their last minute equalizer.

Does anybody else hope Hughton starts Dunk next game? Don't get me wrong Uwe is good and always gives his all but he seems to get beaten in the air a bit too much for my liking...

Hopefully this doesn't come across as too pessimistic, I'm delighted that we're still top of the league and unbeaten.

I would have started as we did but being under pressure would have brought Dunk on when Bruno went off to give more aerial power against Gary Madine as they pushed for an equaliser as it was obvious they would.

Greer was not impressed with Uwe today. Pushed him away and looked like he was going to lump him.

This is splitting hairs as all three centre backs have played well.

I think Hughton should rest Greer more than he does, just to keep him fresh and giving everyone game time. This is a long season and Greer won't be able to start every match without making mistakes eventually, an early card today was a worry.

Completely disagree with this. Uwe should be first choice and one of Greer or Dunk alongside him.

The only mistake for me today by Hughton in the team selection was Dunk losing his place after a clean sheet. I was surprised by this call.

Dunk had a great game last weekend and gives us much needed height. Would have started him today myself..

Been saying it for a few games the german is good back up but nowhere near as good as dunk and can't handle big tall strikers

Precisely, it wasn't the team selection but the substitutions that I found puzzling today.
