Sendaros - Sub

[cheerupjimmyhill]

Interested to know what people think if we are winning by one goal with ten mins to go should we or indeed should we have done in last couple of games bring on sendaros and take off an attacking player to help deal with the aerial threat which is obviously a problem at the moment.

I know he has his doubters but he is strong in the air and does attack the ball. It could be seen as a negative substitution but i feel an effective one nonetheless.

Kerim Frei just tweeted something that suggests that Senderos is starting today, as well as Petric.

Which would be a good thing RE defence. Senderos, for me, is better than Hughes right now, and would give us more protection in the air in Set Pieces and could do well.

Unfairly scapegoated last season.

If Petric is starting sounds like Berba might be on the bench

Or not. Neither Petric or Senderos start!

I thought we needed Senderos and his physicality against Everton. We looked outmuscled by Fellaini.

The only problem with Senderos is that too often when he is involved in physical battles for a whole game (i.e. if he was up against Felliani all game) he gives away a lot of fouls as he is so focused on winning that physical battle and thus invites pressue on from set pieces or in the worse case scenario giving away a penalty.

I think that makes sense.  We were saying that during the match on Saturday  -  and in effect that's what Moyes did, taking off Jelavic for Distin.  Thankfully it didn't do them much good!

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then.  No, I take that back.  He got in position and poked it in.  Well done.

Apologies all around.  I was thinking of Sidwell and his goal, not Senderos.  No more multitasking for me!

Has Senderos ever given away a penalty for us?
