Judging by his interview there are going to be quite a few "fresh legs". Like us, he clearly wasn't happy with what he saw. For me that's gotta start with Kongolo in for Zanka and anybody, literally ANYBODY else in for Depoitre..

Our last Premier League home game under the lights. Be nice to see Grant, Pritchard and Kongolo start. They won’t. Unfortunately. Plenty on here would agree with this but will it happen? Really couldn’t fathom out the thinking behind Saturday’s starting eleven and the manager has to do loads better with his selection this evening.

Couldn't fault the lad last season, however for whatever reason he's looked overweight and un-interested this season unfortunately.

I was shocked with Saturday’s line up, I didn’t know at 2pm Saturday Diakhaby was injured, only when I was inside the ground did the lad next to me say he was out for a couple of weeks. Still, was a poor line up. 9 of the players that featured Saturday featured in our first ever Premier League game which says all you need to know about our progression really.

Whatever team starts tonight let's hope we can put on a performance, we've had several this season, but add some end product to it and get another 3 points on the board.

I am going to make a guess and may be miles out but I bet only 3 or 4 Palace players that played last week played in that Town game.

I am always positive in life but it is waning with Town. Saturday, for 70 minutes, took all hope I had of seeing us try finish second from bottom, which had to be the objective. Anyway, we go again tonight.

Anyway, we go again tonight. dont be a total dick and get yourself sent off when the score is 0-0.. be a total 'pro' and get yourself sent off late on when winning by a goal?? bit extreme but its something that has cost us dear since being here.. Im positive that had smith not committed hari kari on saturday we still had a chance to get something from the game..Newcastle were under pressure, we lifted it somewhat early doors.. Wolves do score some goals but they do concede, we know this as a fact ourselves, positive is the only way to go.. The 'objective' is to win the game today.. then train well for the rest of the week, the next game is not important till it arrives.. lift the feeling at the club..??

I'm hoping to get up there tonight but I'm involved in a class running until 5pm so what will probably happen is that it will take me so long to get to the M1 that I'll end up turning back, it's happened before.

Pritchard has been 'carrying' a back injury of some type.. apparently not serious but enough not to risk it without a really good reason and we ran out of them a while ago???

Siewert’s got a tough enough job without making life even more difficult for himself. If fit, ffs play Kongolo, Pritchard, Billing & Grant. If I walk in tomorrow night to find Puncheon & LDP playing, I really will think he doesn’t know what he’s doing and we have made a calamitous appointment. Puncheon started in the forward three against Arsenal - If we produce a similar performance to that game (a better result would be preferable though) I will be well pleased.

His pace caused arsenal problems.. And gave the midfield an out ball.. Playing puncheon kach and ldp..as per at Newcastle..as our front 3 is suicide.. He has to pick someone who gives us a CHANCE of scoring a goal.. Kachunga and pritch behind grant will give us a CHANCE..

How can Pritchard and Kachunga behind Grant work in Siewert's preferred 4-3-3 system? I am not suggesting Depoitre starts alongside Puncheon in a 3 but why is there a need to include Puncheon in the negativity, he probably came off least to blame from our St James' disaster as he was the one scarificed for the reshaping after the sending off. I don't believe Puncheon is part of our next season's plans and he isn't a favourite of mine but under Siewert he seems to have been scapegoated by some on here unneccessarily. Whereas I love Kachunga but his performances have been bizarrely overrated under Siewert when IMO Puncheon has outperformed him in every game.

Injuries seem to have plagued us leaving us with no real pace, I'd go for
Lossl Durm Schindy Kongolo Lowe Hogg Billing Mooy Kachunga Grant Pritchard
Use Pritchard how Chelsea and Manure use Pogba and Hazard, more so of an inside forward who will drift in to link play, Pritchard hasnt got the pace to be burning full backs so may as well get it into his feet and try and build an attack using Grants pace and whatever Kachunga has.

He's walked in to a reyt shit storm.. Wants to play 4..3..3.. But now Diakaby and Mbenza are injured he doesn't have the players.. Puncheon is neat and tidy..but slow as a boat and shouldn't be playing there.. Would love to see grant get a start.. Who knows..he may be shite as well? But give the boy a game.. Depoitre and Mounie have had their chance

The thing with Puncheon is he WAS a decent footballer but as has so often been the case with Town down the years, we bring in an ageing player when his legs have gone. On the basis that he won’t be here next season and that there are other options available, I can’t see the justification in starting him. He’s certainly nowhere near being the worst player I’ve seen in a Town shirt but will he turn a game, no.

The players owe us a performance this evening, who knows?

That performance at Wolverhampton was supreme...we absolutely walked over them...unfortunately it was a false dawn...maybe tonight will be the end of the nightmare we've had...1 point from 14 games, just 6 goals scored and 28 conceded....that's some collapse.
the team that day was...
Lössl H'jonal Smith Schndlr Kongolo Durm Mooy 2 Hogg Billing Mounie' Pritchrd

Points mean very little now, it’s about putting in performances for the fans who turn up week in, week out.

Shame it's come to this but the fact is it's very shit at the moment and a hard watch. Especially for a kid. Especially when he watched that crap on Saturday.
