Team V Zagreb

[DC_Boy]

Sounds like Harry will be taking it very serious.


“We have to win at home and make sure we win. If we win this game, one more win will get us through then we can think about the league again.

“It's important we keep picking up good results and keep winning for the confidence.

“We don't want to get beaten on Thursday. I'll change the team and give players a chance who haven't played.” Harry Redknapp.

So a few changes, but he really wants to win. So hopefully not too many changes.

well that quote seems to back up what I've been saying that we should rest some of our key players - we'll see come the time

for me as I said we should rest King JJ possibly Gomes and Bentley - but I wouldn't mind if Bentley plays

of course if Harry thinks we should play JJ and King, fair enough he's the man and I wouldn't argue after what he's done for us - but I think he's taking the 'rest now play later policy' which I think is the correct one


resting players as Harry seems likely (and correctly) to do was never a case of not taking things seriously - it was a case as Harry says that the lge is the priority

we can still put together a team that can beat zagreb without the likes of Gomes JJ and King for example

I note sunny delight has already reassessed his team perhaps a few others now will too as I said earlier it baffled me some of the teams being picked given the importance of the Citeh game -

still we'll find out on thurs when the only team that counts is picked

No it doesn't. It's quotation not quote. He hasn't named his team. If you have said it before why do you need to say it again. We get it. The city game is more important than Zagreb but a loss against one of the best home sides in the league will not relegate us but a loss on thursday will be very bad.

King is a special case so needs rest but I don't see the need to rest fit lads like Bentley and Jenas. I bet they wouldn't want to be rested and nor would Harry want them out.

Incidentally next to Harry's i/v is a poll re the best football song

This is the point that seems to elude some people. Not even the most wildly optimistic of us would have believed we'd get seven points from the last three games, and so a defeat against City won't be a disaster; a draw will be a decent result, and a win—well, more delirium.

A defeat or even a draw against Dinamo will be bad news.
