So all of a sudden our best CB is now shit?

Ok.

Sounds rational.
Yes that’s exactly what I said isn’t it...

You’re worse than the bloody Sun.

No, he’s not shit. He has just performed alarmingly poorly though, which is understandable given his lengthy lay off, and therefore it would be a big risk to play him in any top level match at this point. One week’s extra training isn’t going to turn him from Bunjevcevic to Baresi, the guy clearly needs to be managed properly.

If, in the return v Rochdale, he plays and looks more at the races, then maybe consider him for Huddersfield home. Right now, and I say this as someone who has been displeased with Sanchez lately, he shouldn’t be playing.

The fact that he's clearly half fit and well off the pace. He couldn't cope against Rochdale, so what makes you think that he'll fare better against Palace?
He was played away next to someone he hasn't played with before (iirc...or barely), on the side he never plays on, against a dogged, physical, rugged FA cup opponenet who were fully charged up for it at their home ground.

Poch shouldn't have started/played him in that game, he should have listened to thinky and had him on the bench.

The plan should have been to play him off the bench, if need be, and start him proper against Palace next to his natural partner, in a game that would be much more predictable in it's pattern and rhythm.

What is it about Palace that is scaring you girls so much you think playing Toby next to verts -- you know, the two guys who are practically telepathic -- would be such a catstrophic error??

It's pathetic.

What is/are the key threat/threats triggering you so much seeing him in a line up for Sunday?

The threat is Toby's complete lack of fitness. The guy is clearly miles of match fitness. But sure let's have him two, three yards of the pace of the game sending brain waves to Jan.

What will Palace have on sunday that makes you think it's too much of a risk to take?

Not that I agree with your evaluation - "Complete lack of fitness" is complete hyperbole.

Foyth did the same thing - and played pretty well...

Toby's first match back in that scenario, considering all the factors I stated, is not ideal. And was a mistake by Poch.

Foyth has got a degree of rhythm going now,

And he's Rolls Foyth to so, son.

The only person getting triggered is you. In typical fashion, you resort to insults as soon as you get questioned.

Haha, fuck me... *puts down the rum*

I just checked the team sheet for that before I posted my last post and read his name and it didn't register at all, went back just now and it's there and I'm like "that wasn't there before??". :LOL:

No more rum for thinky.
