Waghorn's cameo has 'earnt' him his shirt...

Waghorn in starting 11.

 

[SBT]

Waghorn starting, as if I wasn’t hungover enough already

 

[ccfcmad1]

Cime on city, heads banging next to no sleep could do with a good performance and a few goals to get us going PUSB

 

[Nick]

Sheaf for Waghorn??

 

[shmmeee]

Sheaf for Waghorn??

Well Sheaf for Allen really.

 

[Ian1779]

What’s our record like on new years games

 

[PVA]

Hope for Waghorn's sake he has a decent start, or the crowd will turn on him (even more).

I think we'll see a bit more of Tavares today, depending on the match situation.

 

[stevefloyd]

Where ?

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Not thrilled with that team

Yes, owes us a performance.

Ffs!!!

 

[stevefloyd]

How many more chances will Waghorn spurn...lets hope he plays well

 

[Samo]

Who would you have played? We are desperately short of options.

 

[no_loyalty]

Glad Kane gets a start today.

 

[Blind-Faith]

The only positive for me being full of man flu and not getting to the game today is having to watch Waghorn in the flesh!

 

[Great_Expectations]

Sheaf is on the bench

That is mental.

 

[stupot07]

I've got a feeling Waghorn will be decent today, he's a good footballer even if his goals have dried out, he just needs minutes.

Sheaf must be carrying an injury.

 

[Briles]

We can't complain about injuries and then complain when we utilise the squad. I think Waghorn will put a shift in

 

[Cata]

Waghorn in for Sheaf! An opportunity to show he can play, but Sheaf will be missed breaking up play. Kane in for Dabo is probably a fitness issue. Personally I would like to see more of Burroughs. Perhaps with Waghorn starting, if he is no better than previous outings then Tavares may get a chance from the bench? PUSB

Not necessarily a dig at the selection, assuming Sheaf and Dabo are unfit. Just looks a poor side. A chance for a few to impress though

No. But we can rightly argue that the quality beyond the regular starting XI is very poor.

he is and against Cardiff we didn’t get players in the box - I hope he plays up front with Gyokeres - palmer Allen and hamer then can provide balls through midfield and Kane and Bidwell wide

Bristol are on a horror run so should be ok really

 

[Sick Boy]

Despite what the experts on here say, Robins clearly doesn’t rate Tavares as highly as them.

Agree.

That said would prefer he in for Allen not sheaf. But I get it he may be injured and also Allen is a favourite of robins for his work rate I guess.

He not listening to your expert opinion of Wilson either mind you

 

[Grendel]

we seemed to have just offered Tavares a deal as he’s cheap - there’s certainly no intention to play him

I disagree but really hope he proves me wrong.

 

[The Philosopher]

Waghorn starts and Sheaf is dropped?

Robins is still pissed up from last night, right?
FFS.

 

[Great_Expectations]

I don’t mind the Waghorn one, he’s decent enough but needs some game time to show that.

Wing backs aren’t going to be an outlet and lack dynamism. We’ve then taken a good footballer out and got Allen in the middle seeing more of the ball than usual, which isn’t his strength.

Really not a fan of Kane, but tbf he put a few decent balls in on Thursday. But he’s very one dimensional.

On paper their team is very strong (and bench). Still hopeful of a win.

 

[Macca]

0-0 or 1-1

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

This is a selection based on fitness more than anything else-hopefully we get away with it

 

[kg82]

Is it maybe to do with his yellow cards? When do they get wiped?

 

[skybluejelly]

I reckon 2-1 today hamer and waghorn
