hendo from start and bellamy on the bench? that's not what i wanted to see but i hope kenny knows what he's doing.
Was surprised to see no Bellamy or Kuyt in the lineup. My opinion of the thinking behind that is that Carroll's playing centre forward, therefore we need the wide players who are gonna get quality aerial crosses in, as opposed to people like Bellamy and Kuyt who are more suited to dribbling, beating players, and keeping the ball on the deck.
Could prove to be a good decision, and hopefully it will. I'd like to see Andy get a goal or 2 today to shut some people up for a couple of weeks.
Also, glad to see Flanno on the bench ahead of Robbo. Not because I think he's a better player or deserves it more, but I think Kenny's learned his lesson after the Spurs game. Kelly's injury record speaks for itself and he's always liable to go off injured. Skrtel is a liability at RB, imo, and I never wanna see him played there again. Backup on the bench at RB is more important than LB.
