I agree, but at the same time I havent played football for about 6 years and yet I naturally assume that I'd be even better than I was before somehowQuote:

He has to start Colwill tomorrow, I can't see how Bulut has any other choice. He said that there would be changes after the last debacle , he can't make some shit up about a knock or an injury over the international break, and most importantly, Colwill has been our best performer over the last couple of games. Put it this way, if Colwill doesn't start then he needs to see his PFA rep, because it'll be akin to constructive dismissal if he isn't on the pitch from the start tomorrow. No excuses left for Erol.Quote:

(Insert your own "no-win" gag here!)
He's promised "big changes", but this could mean:
a) Changes that only he thinks are big and we carry on playing predictable, negative, losing football;
b) Changes that are fairly significant personnel-wise, but we still carry on playing predictable, negative, losing football;
c) Changes that are significant and we start playing well and winning, in which case, why the hell didn't he do that months (nearly a year) ago?
(I know which option I think is the most likely.)
Team I’d like to see today:
Horvath
NG Chambers Fish O’Dowda
Siopis Robertson
Tanner Colwill El Ghazi
Robinson
Do I think we’ll see that? Probably not, but without the hope what do we have?! I think 5 changes would be reasonable after the last game, even though two would be down to injuries. The season starts here!
Alnwick for Horvath and I'd go with that team.Quote:

His gradual improvement with every performanceQuote:

No sign of Robinson.
I’m surprised that Robertson isn’t starting. Surely our midfield needs his dynamism and energy?Quote:

It's a complete mystery. Dynamism and energy have been our most obvious traits under Bulut.Quote:

Don't even get me started on Kanga!
Nelson, Adams and Mendez-Laing in the Derby starting line-up. Phillips and Collins on the bench.
Robinson not even in the squad, he must be injured. Baffled by the omission of Robertson, but pleased with the change of goalkeeper and I think Bagan has done enough this season to deserve a chance. Good to see Reindorf among the subs.
Ah didn't notice Reindorf on the bench.Quote:

Better squad but still lack of pace in the middle.
Good to see Reindhorf on the bench.
I've rarely felt as downbeat about City as I do at the moment. The only way seems to be down.
Can't see anything in that team to frighten a very average Derby side. Kanga up top? WTF
Hope I'm proven wrong.
No matter how the game finishes, it’s a disgrace that our striking options are a loan player signed from a mid table second tier German team with a patchy scoring record and a kid who will be making his league debut if he comes on.
My fear is that this is the same old formation and system with some different players. I hope I'm wrong.
NML captain too.Quote:

Yes he is, but unfortunately he is still allowed to pick the team and 'be in contact' with his staff.Quote:
