Not really controversial. Ive not been since then. Simple as that. My own choice and thats up to me. Others are free to make their own choices.

Look, Turner is a good defender, he has a lot to learn but gives 110%.
He fights for everything.


That I agree with but sometimes giving 110% isn't enough. People have their levels unfortunately. I'd wish him all the best at another club in the Championship and he'd probably win it again at a decent enough club but I don't think he has the attributes to cope consistently at this level.

So you agree than you would do the same for Whitts and Hudson who are also not good enough for this level?

Are you f*cking insane?

Hudson I agree is a back up option at best as he, like Turner, does not have the agility and composure on the ball and the ability to read the game that is required.

Whittingham is being played out of position. In his true position he'd be fine but he needs his confidence built back up now and to be eased back in from the bench as his confidence will be shot to pieces after the idiots today. Such a shame. Blaming a player for being played out of position. Its like shouting at a plumber of not fixing the electrics in your house. People are skilled and trained to do a certain job.

But in the other thread you said Daehli would be better played as an Attacking Midfield so I would assume you think he's not good enough?

Read the other thread. I gave my reasons for why I would not start Whitts against Swansea.

Going by your response (you didnt say for Swansea by the way) that formation you picked wouldnt be the best then? So you would play Whitts as first choice AM?

I didn't say for Swansea but you should always plan for the next game ahead and thats it. No point looking beyond the next game.

A confident Whittingham? Yes I would.
The current Whittingham who I believe has had his confidence shot to pieces by fans? No.

I dont think we should risk Whittingham in a derby when his confidence might not be up there.

he is what he is...tries very hard , would throw himself infront of a cannonball.......but limited..improving?..some games he makes more blocks than others...........like his attitude, and eternally gratefull for his efforts last year,but like his mentor Malky out of his depth.

I agree. The only thing he can do is hoof it up to the opposition's goalkeeper.
