Commons is not a bloody winger! If you think he’s going to spend 90 minutes hugging the touchline, you are deluded! He will spend more time drifting into the middle than Smithy will inside his own penalty area!

Your probably right about Hoskins, still not fit enough, but I think he’ll get a brief run out on Saturday.

No problem though, Ormerod’s been playing fairly well. I think there’s perhaps a little more to come from him.

Not too sure about Hoskins Pavlo, he looked sluggish for the reserves and was holding his back when he came off. Probably needs a few more reserve games under his belt before he’s ready.

In fairness, anyone who has scouted us will be expecting a lack of width, so going with out and out wingers now may well be devastating.

I hope we do see some classic wing-play. I agree whole-heartedly with what you’ve written nffc.

I hope for Saturday it’s Commons on the left, McCleary on the right, Tyson and Hoskins up front.

To me this is quite a mouth-watering prospect having these four guys on the pitch at the same time, I see good things to come. I, like the majority of fans, am trying to be as optimistic as possible.

3 points on Saturday, I can’t even fathom the possibility of anything less.

C’MON U REDS!

p.s. Let’s see what this “Trust” meeting brings on Monday, I hope to attend.

He’s doing a Fergie with the winger swapping thing, Ronaldo and Giggs or whoever seem to end up doing that a lot on the telly.

Bet Smoulds is mindlessly aping his countrymen’s tactics … in fact, haven’t Man U been playing 4-3-3 recently? Its a conspiracy!

I don’t disagree with that principle, but let’s at least just try ‘em on their correct sides for more than five minutes first!

NFFC, I think in theory having the wingers swapping positions during a match is a great idea. Poses the full backs and centre backs totally different problems, and enables the wingers to come inside and shoot on their stronger foot (remember Duff and Robben for Chelsea, they actually preferred playing RW). Now I do admit there is a bit of difference playing for Chelsea with world class players and our current predicament, but the same principles apply.
