I think Saturday's game should suit Clarke more than Philogene. Then bring Jaden on as he tires.

McKenna got it the right way round tonight IMO.

No, Clarke against tired legs.

How many times do we hear that after a good cameo and then frustrating from start.

I’d actually play him as a 10.

He should never have been automatically dropped. He was on a roll and then he gets bumped as soon as Philogene is half fit and that’s the end of his roll. Seeing him back on form tonight couldn’t have come soon enough. He must start against QPR off the back of that.

Clarke is always better off the bench, Jaden is better from the start.

Just make the change earlier IMO.

He always seems to look more effective when he comes on to me with JP starting

He’s literally our leading goal scorer. Why would you bench our leading goal scorer in a game we have to win?

This 100%. Him against tired legs is unplayable in the championship.

Clarke is much more effective after Jaden has run at a defender for 60 minutes, plus Jaden has a great record against QPR. No reason to change it.

Because he's scored more goals as a sub...I think.

Plus, if we get a penalty in stoppage time I want him taking it.

He’s much more effective off the bench. Jaden to start for me, plus Jaden at home usually is very reliable.

He was excellent tonight but I do think that Southampton being knackered helped a lot, they were barely trying to tackle him towards the end.

Certainly a case for starting him on Saturday but might be that finisher that we might need.

That's repeatedly not worked though?

Would you honestly start the most important match of the season with Clarke as a 10 and without Matusiwa?

We're definitely not on the same page when it comes to team selections, I guess we will see what KM decides!

Because he has proven to be very effective at scoring those goals off the bench and really affecting games when they are stretched against tired legs. Just like tonight.

I'm not sure QPR will be coming out going for it wide open from the start.

You don't base your strategy on a cameo. Good as he was, and I like Clarke, that game was ideal for him. Southampton flagging and the game completely stretched.

Jaden please. We might need a curler from outside the box if QPR sit and make it difficult

Think you may have missed the point. Resting him may have been crucial to how he's played when he's come on (as well as Saints tiring). But to say, "and that’s the end of his roll". Come on, you're being silly there!

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

I have to disagree. We have always been better with a Philogene then Clarke approach rather than Clarke/Philogene.

Hell I was even thinking about Philogene as a 9. The mind does crazy things. If Stockwell and Kiwomya can do it...

Just Clarke?


Reminds me of the joke about Messi ahead of a World cup game Vs Scotland, tells the lads to have a rest and he'll take on the jocks on his own.

His team mates aren't so sure so agree they'll check in at half time, just in case. At HT he's one up and the team happily agree to a game of bowling during the second 45.

At FT they see it's 1 each so pop down to the dressing room to see Messi upset at the draw.

"Come on Leo, it's not so bad, a draw against an international side all by yourself, you have to be happy with that?"

"No, no, it's my own fault. I've let my country down, got set off in the 60th minute..."

Think he’s a bit too careless in possession for 10, and he does his best work facing goal. If you’re picking one of the twins for 10 I’d go for Billy. It has been a bit of a weird problem position all season tbf.

I wouldn’t change it tbh. He’s a more direct runner than JP, which makes him a more effective finisher imho

JP had a great game as well by the way. Clarke was brilliant but was doing it against tired legs.
