Mowbray

Had a moderate amount - couple of glasses of wine and 3 cans of Caffrey's - Ballard is first choice CB.

Ballard and Luke are our first choice centre backs, we play two. Google first choice centre backs, there’s pages and pages of first choice centre back arguments for various teams. There’s a debate any time England play about who our first choice centre backs should be.

You can apply it to pretty much any position other than goalkeeper. Unless ya play with one striker.

Adil was injured and only just returned. If only just back from injury would you have played him?

With a bit of luck mayenda will have a positive influence but at present its gueeswork on him.

Your point regard rusyn - mowbray changed it to bigger lads up top to TRY to influence the game with them sitting deep which meant rusyn was a bit limited.

If anything rusyn had his chances 1st half and blew it. He should of put us in the lead but didnt.

Yes. Dack has missed several games, including the very same Norwich game. Yet he's able to come on but aouchiche isn't?
 
Is it a bit of a myth about Mowbray giving the kids a chance?

He doesn’t have the choice here. But he is pretty much showing “loyalty” to his senior players. Rightly or wrongly. I’m not debating that, I am just genuinely interested if it’s not really the thing people make it out to be.

Poster said ONien was 1st choice CB (singular) Ballard is 1st choice CB - ONien is there because Mowbray thinks Seelt and Triantis aren't ready and he hasn't had a chance to look at Alese yet.

So your idea of man management means no matter what injury theyve had, no matter how the recovery is going, no matter who the player thst you would expect them all to be available in the same time frame?!

Thats the worst idea of man management ive ever heard!

Do we have any proof that Mowbray is any good at it?

So far we have had a mountain of injuries when they're brought back into the team and the manager telling the entire world his forward line is unprofessional and shit.

Top man management from Teflon Tony. The only positive from yesterday is he might have picked up a thing or two about how to set up a team with 10 men. Because the evidence so far suggests he's clueless at it.

No - had to play him LB really due to Cirkin and Huggins injuries IIRC.

Yes we do. By not playing Adil instsntly tells me he purposefully didnt wsnt to put him on.

As to why he was on the bench ive no idea on that but its not like we have an abundance of other attacking options he's holding back from playing

So he's putting players on the bench who can't come on according to you.

Another horrific decision if true. I'd rather have a kid on the bench than a wasted seat.

Rarely due to Cirkin and Huggins and his own injury problems. Not fit for selection anyway.

Well putting a kid on the bench would be a waste of a seat!

Im sure if it was last resort he'd of come on for an injured player. No way would mowbray not bring him on yesterday if he was fully fit.
