And were so comfortable they stopped being arsed to properly get at us. |  |

Next game I'd be starting .... on 17:19 - Jan 25 with 1258 views | ipswichtillidie | Delap has been a sensation,our best player this season by far. Hirst is a great option but let’s not get too carried away with a crap team performance albeit against top opposition. Hutch needs a break and Broady looks the part, I can’t go against that. We have Philogene now and Ensico so at least we have options. In regards Leif I think he also needs a rest, played nearly every game for the last 2 seasons and been a sensational player for us. Also worth noting he’s created a lot this season. What disappointed me today was the lack of bite and aggression to get into them. Allowed them too much space and time. The central midfield players were passive as were the wing backs. [Post edited 25 Jan 17:22]

Game was long gone by that point and Liverpool were completely in preservation mode. I do think that we could do with seeing Hirst and Delap though as a possibility. As we are lacking the ability to hold the ball higher up the pitch right now. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
Next game I'd be starting .... on 17:26 - Jan 25 with 1154 views | JammyDodgerrr | I'd be very very tempted to start Hirst. He links better with the 10's and suits our system more, albeit Delap is a better player. I wouldn't start Townsend over Davis though, that's mad. He's a fine back up but let's not get carried away. Muric TZ O'Shea Greaves Davis Morsy Cajuste Hutch Enciso Philogene Hirst That'll stuff the saints. |  |

I'd play Broadhead ahead of Jaden. Have some familiarity down the wings. Bring on Jaden to stretch the game in the second half. |  |

Yeah I'd probably agree with that, to be honest. |  |
