Duffy unavailable because of family problem, he's at a funeral.

No, don't say it!

Montoya vs Diver. This will be an open game now, easy to see a loss. Potter taking a huge gamble.

Schelotto was run ragged for 45 minutes V Zara last time. Montoya probably marginally better Defending against him - yes I remember his equaliser in December! The best defender against him down the years has been March (!) so clever ploy to bring him back to support.

Why not play Mac.........he’s played the River Plate v Boca game, which is 10 x the atmosphere that there will be this afternoon! When do you play him?

Because he's not played with his team mates much yet, and this is not the game for misplaced passes and missed runs. His time will come.

What does Alzate have to do to get a start? My POTS so far.

Should be in instead of Mooy who is off-form.

When 10 men Albion beat them Dec18, who was the RB? Genuinely can’t recall, but I think it was March, who was amazing?

Going to take my seat in a minute. Never feel good about these games, hopefully we can at least turn up today.

Which team would you put him against? Why bring him back from Boca? Would he not be worth a spot on the bench?

Strange logic!

Don't understand the glamour to play Macallister. We brought him back as he's OUR player and we may need another option in the run in. Really like Alzate but Mooy has to play given how involved he is going forward. Come on!

Hodgson referring to "actors on the field" - the lead actor obviously being Zaha........

Montoya - can’t defend and has Zaha - could be sent off by half time.
Trossard - hardly ever had an impact when starting
March - 1 good game in 20 and we had that one already
Webster - can’t defend looks nervous on the ball lately

If we lose this one, then the next game may not be the one to 'risk' him either...and so on

Nothing like a bit of positivity before the game.

Indeed, and the post you quoted was certainly nothing like a bit of positivity.
