**** me assiadi is damn site better than him

[RichC]

Clearly BR isn't seeing it in training hence he's not being picked

[Shaggy]

What has Assaidi done wrong to be behind Cole et al?

[Shaggy]

Sahin obviously still suffering.

[Buzzo]

Our bench is uninspiring.

[danperkins]

Something is up with Assaidi, seems he's being completely blanked.

[Gibbo]

I don't get leaving Assaidi out all together, i just don't.

There is absolutely no way Cole offers more than him.

[Neil Young]

Our bench is uninspiring.

So is our starting eleven.

[Kenneth]

Maybe. But cole has scored a goal this season and set up at least one. Assaidi has shown glimpses of skill but produced basically nothing. As a sub I can see why he's picked him.

[RedReet]

So is our starting eleven.

So is our support.

Come on Enrique.

[Neil Young]

So is our support.

I wouldn't know. I'm not at the game.

[yamiedo]

Will Downing be at left-back?

[Gibbo]

Maybe. But cole has scored a goal this season and set up at least one. Assaidi has shown glimpses of skill but produced basically nothing. As a sub I can see why he's picked him.

Cole has had more chance to though, to be fair.

Assaidi's style offers more to the team.

[Gazmo1]

Will Downing be at left-back?

**** me, I didn't know he had a brother and we'd signed him!!
