RUSSELL SLADE HAS A TOUGH DECISION TO MAKE

Mon Aug 24, 2015 7:40 pm

After Saturday's man of the match performance by Fabio in the win over Wolves, Russell Slade has a decision to make, does he stick with Fabio at left back or bring Scott Malone back into the team after missing out with a virus.

Malone has been excellent so far this season and doesn't deserve not to be included but does Slade stick with the most recent performer or go back to his original starter at left back ?

I think many fans would like to see both players starting with Fabio replacing Lee Peltier at right back but somehow I don't see that happening.

So would you stick with Fabio or bring Malone back in ?

Tough this one Carl. Fabio had a bad bout of cramp and this might not have eased enough. Not sure but I cannot see a reason not to play the both and rest - I emphasise NOT drop - Peltier. Again this shows EVERYONE that competition is around the corner for everyone. All players need to fight for their shirt.

Don't change a winning team unless you have to

Peltier should be dropped for Fabio, with Malone on the left

Would like to see the same WINNING team, but knowing Slade he will put Ravelle back in. :twisted:

Malone has been superb and it was unfortunate he was ill Saturday, but it gave fabio a chance that he took and I am a huge believer in what you posted. Ain't broke....

Not a bad option but I feel peltier adds stability and is more solid, good at set pieces but a good problem to have :thumbup:
