Tomorrow's Lineup?

[Dex 0]

Fairly self explanatory post, but first of all, Merry Christmas!

I''m currently (like many of us) cruising into the evening having eaten my own weight in food, watched a bit of festive telly and just generally spent the entire day relaxing :P Obviously, we''re playing Fulham tomorrow and I was just wondering how you all think we''ll line up etc :)

I''d go with:

4-4-1-1

Ruddy

Martin Turner Bassong Olsson

Redmond Fer Johnson Snodgrass

Ricky (if fit)

Hooper

Let''s all hope the lads give us an extra Christmas present this year!

Well said Dex - I fully agree.

[GJP 79]

Swap Martin and Whittaker and you''re even closer to it.

[Herman 11,136]

I''d keep Whittaker in. Not his best game last time but I still prefer him.

This with Whittaker for Martin.

Not totally on topic, but what''s the general consensus on here when it comes to the whole "Martin VS Whittaker" thing? For me Martin overall game is better but Whitts offers more going forward. Thoughts?

Martin''s*

I agree, although when you say Whittaker offers more going forward, I would say that really equates to being better at crossing.

At the moment, if Martin can dish out another of his consistent displays I''d play him against Fulham.

Whittaker is not a bad player, just not much better than Martin. And for me, if you are playing Snodgrass on the right then you need someone more defensively sound behind him.
