Wigan Build Up

[SB]

So Bellamy possibly won't play so does that bring Kuyt in for a rare start or Maxi ?

Otherwise, same side that beat Villa? When's Jay available next? Is it the next match?

Back 5 unchanged or do you bring Kelly in for a match?

[Fosterbloke]

Maxi to start. Everyone else remains.

In place of Bellamy?

I'd be very happy to see Maxi to start. I think we have to keep the back 5 in place.

Wigan looked excellent against Chelsea I thought. If they had a decent finisher they would be a long way up the table if that is the sort of performance they have been putting in regularly. I expect a more difficult game that against Villa.

I think our Academy team could give us a harder game than Villa did yesterday.

[Rich]

Think everyone deserves to start again - although I appreciate that Bellamy might need to be rested.

Defensively we're aces at the moment so that shouldn't be messed with.

Hopefully Kenny can end the worrying vibe that this is turning in to the new Middlesbrough away!

Sorry to **** on poeple's parade but I don't expect us to win this game at all.

When was the last time we went on genuine run??? It was four ****ing years ago. This **** always happens...we win a couple of games and expectations rise only for them to fly back down to earth after a disappointing draw/loss to a team that we're expected to beat.

This is that game.

Think we'll draw.

Sad but true. Just when we look like we are closing on teams above, we get beat. But hopefully not this time.

I'm sure that applies to us too. If we both realised our true potential, i.e. goals, it would still be a league leading team (us) versus a top half midtable team.

[Chris]

Agger seemed to be touching his knee a lot yesterday, continued on fine so hopefully it was nothing.

so you want to throw the towel in now do you ......have hope

[Yozza]

I'd rather be positive...

Confidence is high; defence is sound & we've a decent squad with the likes of kelly, kuyt & maxi to come in if needed... oh & Carra

& I know we keep saying it but some one is going to get a battering soon...

Not too much travelling over the xmas period either

I reckon we'll play em on the counter... 0-2

wigan are not a good team. their result against chelski wont be repeated IMO. id love to see us go with a winning line up and stay unchanged but i think bellers out for kyut will be the change we make. id also be tempted to drop shelvey even given his good showing and go with carroll or maxi in his place and try steamroller them frist 20-30 mins.

[Maxiedge]

I'm just being realistic. This happens everytime. We have a chance to make a real push and we end up dropping points against a lesser side.

I'm not being negative. I'm just stating the facts and what WILL happen.
