Disagree about negative selection

Mulumbu has looked class in both home games he came on and was definitely worth a starting place.

Our starting eleven had Jerome, Wes, Naismith and Howson in .. All who would be described as attacking.

The manager wanted to keep it tight as a derby will always be a battle.

For me I'd have gone with Canos starting after his brief midweek cameo. He has considerable experience at this level and I'd have benched Naismith with a view to bringing him on for Wes if he tired.

The manager played percentages and went safe with experience .. I agree with many however that Naismith and Wes together only works against the poorer teams in the division.

Get it wide .....
