Have no idea how dembele or vlad haven't made the bench...Chadli as a CM just doesn't work for me
Ah well TS to be dropped permanently in another 3 matches look forward to that.!SouthStand Billy
Yet he was fit last week??? Vlad and sandro seem to have just been outright dropped...disappointing

Pleased that Daws is back. I go for a draw.
Just my explanation as it makes sense to me, Vlad's been quite poor of late and Dembele's injury is far more prevalent than he's putting on and Tim's now seen it. These guys with weird hip injuries can be very tricky, as they'll play 90 minutes on them every match but vary in their performances due to the pain level at any given point in time.

I just can't wrap my head around why he insists on playing Chadli as a CM..
FFS he has sandro sitting on the bench, which should in theory give Pauli more licence to score...
Hope you mean his ownI would settle for a scruffy 1-0 win as long as Charlie Adam breaks a leg or two.
Dembele has not recovered from his hip injury since November 2012!. You can see from his face he is jacked up on pain killers but since he is a talented player him going through the motions still is good enough for us in midfield and better than some players who are fit.

I would like to see his nuts cracked one at a time!I would settle for a scruffy 1-0 win as long as Charlie Adam breaks a leg or two.
I really can't tell if you're joking or not.Paulinho and Chadli at CM has worked so well in our last few games, so happy to see them there again! We look so solid defensively with this combination.
