This.

If not the kids, start all the fringe players. Yes, I’m including Kral in that.

Rest as many as we have replacements for from the fringes. All about next Thursday for me. Eggs all in the 1 basket
What was the point of Kral!?. Is he really that bad, that our manager and staff couldn't foresee that he would be a bench warmer.
Wasted wages that could have gone towards. a Striker option.
Fucking ludicrous.
It was done Cast, to merely bring another body in to dupe the gobshites in to thinking we've got another body in.
Yes they've had to pay wages, but far better to pay wages rather than buy the player and pay his wages. It looks good on paper, Czech international, friend of coufal and soucek etc. But there was never any intention of him staying here or given a chance. His parent club probably put in a clause stating that he is limited to one or two appearances, they don't want there player getting injured after all do they.
Remember, this is Sugo we're dealing with.
He'll be gone last game of the season, make no mistake.
Love a cup of Rosey I do.

Don't think he wants to stay now anyway, and who could blame him.

Might sound defeatist, but with Zuoma not 100 percent, Diop out more than likely, and Moyes decision regarding Dawson alreadymade for him the result almost seems like a foregone conclusion.
Can't disagree with your logic. But when I saw the line up against Chelsea I thought it could get very messy and, although we ended up with what most of us expected, we nearly came away with a point.

And I wouldn't describe you as defeatist Joe. I prefer realist. ;)
Difference is Cheats are on the beach, le Arse need the points for 4th spot.
Anything less than full strength then it could be a cricket score, and with Wolves up our backsides GD could be crucial.

The thing that gets me is Kral was the 1 player I remember Moyes mentioning he was looking forward to seeing at the Euros. I’m convinced he was a Moyes signing

The thing that got to me with Kral was the Kidderminster game. Against far inferior opposition, he looked like he couldn’t have made their bench.

Yes, no one covered themselves in glory that day, but the rest of the team already had the runs on the board. This was his chance to show a bit of what he had. And he didn’t seem to get out of second gear.

Is it Kral that was mentioned in a post about costing extra money for a certain number of appearances?
Just like my dreams they fade and die.
But on the positive side..............

Absolutely we rest them. TBH, I do not see that Moyes has any choice. The Europa is our last chance of picking up a trophy this season.

You’re right Tas. No idea how many games though and surely nowhere near the number

You’re right, he and others were dogshit and disinterested in that game. Player attitude can be infectious though. He was infected. Takes time for players to gel into a team. Training surely not the same. Just a very weird situation with him and surely he can’t be so bad that he’s only good enough for splinters from the bench

So yes we did rest a couple of players and to be honest we were not that bad and the team which started did not let us down (even though we lost)

From now to the end of the season we need all the best players on the pitch even if we make the Euro final..

I might be deluded but i do not think Frankfurt are that good. If we get an early goal the game is ours to lose.
