So who is it on FTL that has the dressing-room bugged, BOF?

Chalk one up to bizness, SS57. Worth noting that he got that one right. I looked in an old programme and TAH doesn't even seem to have a first team squad number. He's not on the list.

Team:

Robinson
Chimbonda
Kaboul
Dawson
Lee
Lennon
Zokora
Jenas
Malbranque
Berbatov
Keane

So it's Stalteri that's been dropped in favour of TAH.

That's probably our strongest line-up on paper... just in practice the JJ-Zoko and Daws-Kaboul partnerships have looked very shaky.

They have to be utterly dominant today.

boateng??????

JR continues to give various players their chance to shine. Looks like he's missed out to Tainio. Really hope TT gets his chance - I think he could be perfect for JR's chosen tactics... but only if he gets a go in the centre!!

Thought we looked much better with Boateng and Jenas in the middle but i guess JR knows more about this than me..

Only negative for me was the first 15-20 mins of the second half we were poor as we couldnt keep hold of the ball. But the appearance of Bent seemed to lift us, we really sparked into life and played some great stuff. All in all the link up play between players like Berba and Chimbs was superb. Lennon also looked sharper than he has looked in a long time.

good performance, I not sure if its just me but I have noticed us pressing a lot harder in packs of 3 or 4 players, applying pressure on their mid and defence which ended up with us winning the ball in their half and pouncing. We do seem to be a little fitter already. SOme good footy played too. Im happy! Still work to be done but it more optimistic after the last week or so.

Lennons goal was beautifully teed up by Berba, he then rocketed a low volley from just outside the box into Kirklands right hand corner. 2nd best goal he has scored for us, after Chelski obviously!

i thought the goal was similar in class (but not quite as good as) the one against spam last season.
