With the new signings who of the previous starters will not be playing

[Riverside]

I think we have seen the last of Baird in CM. He might however be needed as cover for CB !!
Kaca sadly ( as he is part of the future ) will now have very limited chances . That is not just the signing of Urby but the way Duff played on the left on Wednesday.
The same can be said of Frei but he hasn't been starting anyway .

Kara and Sidwell I think will both play but not together . ( I question whether Berba and Ruiz will also start together again but that is for another thread ).

[TonyGilroy]

Jol has chopped and changed all season so it's hard to know who he would ever have regarded as our best 11.

Tomorrow I'd have thought, fitness permitting and assuming no Berbatov and Sidwell that he'll go

Schwarzer

Reither  Hangeland Hughes Richardson

Duff     Karagoulis   Enoh       Emmanuel

Ruiz

Rodallega

I think so too.

[Holders]

I agree - Baird and Kaca.

Think JAR deserves his place iun the team. Thought he did well on Wednesday. Not sold on Richardson. Hope he proves me wrong though.

[LukeJennings]

Richardson is still injured, so Briggs I think, I just do not like JAR performances at the moment, saying that with Urby on the win JAR gives us more defensive cover than Briggs so may be best to start with JAR

[Mladens Nan]

Dejagah too..
Davies and Kasami won't get a look in

[filham]

I read there was no work permit in place for yesterday's signings so we will not see new faces tomorrow other than Frimpong , maybe for a short spell.

When you look at these incomming players none of them are premiership proven and they may all take a while to adjust.

Emanuelson, who I understand plays wide left is the most needed, and he may be the 1st to get some time on the field.
Manolev is said to be a right back and would seem to be a replacement for Kelly so can't see him in the team unless Reither is injured.

Lets hope that one or two of these players will break into the team and make the difference that is badly needed.

[McBridefan1]

we definitely need to get that Dejaga out there, the guy looks like he could be a real bit of class.

[Mr K.Dilkington]

Although I hate to say it but what about Senderos?, Although I would always pick Hughes over Senderos normally to be fair to the guy he did have a pretty decent game against West Ham. Everytime i've seen Baird play at CB he's looked good so I agree with the point someone else made about him being CB cover and most likely won't be seen in CM anymore. Because to be honest there's no reason for him to play their anymore, to be fair to him he's got a good range of passing but why would you play him over a specialist CM like Frimpong or Enoh.

Riise was doing fine then he made a ridiculous handball that thankfully the linesman inexplicably missed. He's far worse than Senderos for making needless and foolish errors. I'm not sold on either him nor Briggs, both have an error in them. Richardson on the other hand has looked solid.

Manolev is Bulgarian which is in the EU. I would be surprised if Enoh doesn't have a dual citizenship, Cameroonian-Dutch.

I've been watching football for close to 50 years now, and I've never seen a match where a player didn't make a mistake -- not Best, not Cruyff, not Pele, not Eusebeo, not Charlton, nobody.

To be honest, my opinion of Senderos raised when I saw how elated he was after the third goal to seal the win. Maybe it's his puppy dog face, but I'm pulling for him to succeed.
