    Same team vs Fulham, one of the best performances I've seen in a very long time.
    Jelavic will start scoring again at some point, and moving around players in different positions when no one is injured, after a performance like that last weekend is foolish.
    Moyes may opt for Hibbert at RB but I doubt he will change anything, Moyes isn't one for moving the squad around too much (except for cup competitions).

    Or how about this one then
     -------------------Howard------------------
    Fellaini----Fellaini-------Fellaini-----Fellaini
    -----------Fellaini------Fellaini--------
    --Fellaini----Fellaini-------Fellaini--------
    -------------------Fellaini-------------------

    all we would have to do is get our hands on one of those cloning machines like in that Multiplicity movie

    Coleman has outplayed Bale and other in past seasons using his acceleration and pace, so I agree on Seamus doing something big.

    I expect Hitzl on the bench, and want to see Duffy get plenty of minutes as well. Same team as last time is the key I think, though Sunderland is gonna be prepared to get stressed seriously.

    Going the game tomorrow, reckon we'll **** sunderland as usual. People have put oviedo but whats his actual position? Thought he was a left back but last time i saw him play he was on the wing.

    Fantasy managers... Hes left sided... And the showreels highlight some defensive frailties...

    I think it's fair to say the majority of us agree Neville's the weakest part to our starting 11 by far. His performances have been average at best, he's usually good for a crunching tackle per game, but that doesn't really amend for his turnovers, and lack of pace & creativity. He keeps the ball moving, but it's usually predictable passes from side to side, or backwards.

    He's the skip so until the likes of Jags or Howard or somebody else (ideas?) are given the reigns I doubt Neville will be dropped much this season. Heitinga has made it fairly obvious that he prefers playing centrally within the back line while Hitzlsperger is still finding the fitness required in the EPL. I wouldn't mind seeing him get a go but unlike Neville, who prioritizes defense and retaining possession above all else, Hitzlsperger would prefer moving forward if given the opportunity. It's a shame the loan deal for Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe didn't pan out, he could've been just the alternative option we need.

    And dropping Jelavic would be madness, the Croatian is undergoing his 1st slump for us, dropping him now would probably make it worse. He was dropped from the starting squad within the Croatian national team when he was still scoring left and right, I believe that may have been the start of his loss of form.

    why is this quote not in the last post, I was going to quote yours Irony. This is the last part of yours that I can't see in the post, so here it is.

    not sure, maybe because I edited in that last part about a minute after posting the original?

    Here's a little more about Jelavic and the Croatian national team- ever since the former manager, Slaven Bilic, left for FC Lokomotiv Moscow the new manager has opted against playing 2 strikers up front, meaning Mandzukic gets the nod at starting striker instead of Jelavic. I doubt it has had a tremendous impact but I believe Jelavic has been slightly peeved by it. Hopefully Igor Stimac will rotate his ST's because Jelavic is too talented not to be playing regularly for his national team.
