I feel there might be a little shake-up after yesterday's win but pretty ineffective attacking performance although to be honest I am worried about what damage Spurs will do to us. Foster Chambers (Maybe give Mariappa a rest?) DeMerit Shittu Stewart (IF fit and I hope he is) Rinaldi (Why not give him a go?) Williams Mahon Bouazza Francis Priskin Subs: Lee Bangura Henderson Smith Doyley/Mariappa I thought Francis playing just behind young Tamas and with Williams actually controlling/passing the ball worked well against Charlton until we decided to sit back on the lead. Got nothing to lose so might as well attack and try to actually play some football.
dont think steward will be fit so powell will play. also not sure about chambers, hes playing/played tonight but iam not sure if he got the full 90 minutes so is he match fit?
I think Stewart is out for another 3 weeks unfortunately, whislt Chambers isn't match fit yet and to be honest it showed when he came on vs plymuff. My Team: Foster Mariappa DeMerit Shittu Powell Smith Mahon Williams Bouazza Francis Priskin Subs: Lee, Chambers, Cavalli, Hendo, Rinaldi

WARNING! MAHON SLATING POST Mahon has been utter pony in the last few games and is NOT premiership standard. I can not knock his work rate but in every play he seems to be one step behind everyone else on the field. He is slow and panics on the ball, and as captain this can install on the other players. Apart from having an above average work rate and being a good sportsman, he has a real lack of leadership qualities. I can not believe Smith is slated on here. His first touch is the best at the club and although not overly quick, he effectivly beats his man and gets a good cross over alot of the time, yet he comes in for more stick than Mahon Watching Mahon against Plymouth, he summed up the lackluster preformance of the team. He should be dropped as captain and from the team. An alternative? Danny Shittu, who has been immense all season, and seeing him thunder through a striker to win a ball is enough to lift any team or supporter Mahon slating over, I'd like to see 5 in midfield, Smith Bangura Williams Cavalli and Bouazza. I'm confident 4 of these players can pass the ball well, with Bangura providing the steal I await the Mahon defence posts
Smith would be good if he wasn't so one-paced meaning a quick defender can easily get back to him and tackle. Pretty weak too.
