Looks like we're playing for a 0-0 then.

Im absolutely amazed to see Skrtle starting ahead of Agger. Is Agger unfit?

Our midfield is so slow

more like static....plenty of square balls today....geez give babel a chance

Should be enough to beat Brum. That said, they have a great home record.

[Icon]

Lucas / Jove should be Meireles / Babel or Pacheco...

Agreed. Im not confident, we have no pace or urgency in that line-up

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

I predict Lucas to be our man of the match.

Trying to be positive as you can see.

[Chris]

Lets hope he doesnt wait till 78 minutes to change it again if we are playing complete ****e. I fail to see how this team is gonna work, we were shocking with that central midfield at home to West Brom, I cant see it suddenly imposing itself away to Brum.

I'd love to be surprised though.

Would have preferred to see SG in midfield with Poulsen and Meireles off Torres. FFS!!

[badpiggy]

Was hoping to see Mereiles... today I'm in the football mood that thinks how the **** can a team with Johnson, Skrtel and Konchesky In defence and a midfield with Lucas, Maxi, Poulsen and Jovanovic even be considered top 4 challengers? Dreading this.

IMO the ones in red should be playing for the ones in green.

[CJ]

we dont know how fit RM is.

i would prefer a different line up but RM might come on in the second half. He will need some time to get to terms with the league imo.

You not a fan mate?

Its not an inspiring team selection, but hopefully they'll do a job.
