    What is the weather like down there?
    Is the game in danger of being called off?

    It's been snowing but not very heavy, I'm sure the game will be on tomorrow

    I don't know how many if you were at the millwall game but second half reeves was brilliant! Looked so dangerous and scored a goal that was wrongly disallowed. But don't think he will start, honestly think he should get a bench spot though.

    Team I would like to see:

    Davis
    Butterfield
    Fonte
    Hooiveld
    Fox
    Punch
    Cork
    Reevo
    Lallana
    Lambert
    Sharp

    Tadanari and guly on the bench for those attacking options


    The team we will see (I guess):

    Davis
    Richardson
    Fonte
    Martin
    Fox
    Punch
    Cork
    Hammond
    Lallana
    Lambert
    Sharp

    Butterfield is injured and i would prefer Richardson but other than that saint i would agree with you.
    We have been lacking through the middle of the park for a while now so Reevo (as you put it) would freshen up our midfield.

    I agree when Reeves came on in the second half we had an entire different dimension to our game and some of his passing was superb but i dont think starting would be a good idea, would like to see him on the bench ahead of the likes of Connolly or such who may normally take his spot though. I think he's earnt it.

    Rarely do I pick a side but my choice for the Burnley game would be :- Davis: Richardson: Fox: Fonte: Hoover: Punch: Spider: Hammond: Lala: Sharp: Lambo:
    Subs: Bart: T Lee: Guly: Cork: Martin: 4 4 2.

    Cannot imagine why.


    On the Butterfield thing...I understand that people want changes, but even if he wasn't out injured, the idea of throwing him out there as a starter in such a crucial game, when he hasn't played in a competitive match in three and a half months, is terribly panicky.

    fox is one of the best in this league, i think shaw (once recovered )should be backup and not harding.quick question. why is harding getting beaten alot 1 on 1, poor positioning, slow, pushing forward too much or just crap?

    Haven't seen him play enough recently to answer that really, but the Leicester game he was played out of position on the right so poor positioning for that game (and certainly showing Nugent inside for his goal) could perhaps be blamed on that.

    Reeves was superb on Tuesday. His vision and playmaking was top notch, it really was. Has to get a place on the bench ahead of Guly who had a shocker. Players should earn their places.
