Amongst the 2000 odd posts since the Palace match, there seems to be a reasonable consensus...
Stick with 4-2-3-1
Out with the old - Given, Whelan, Walters, Cameron In with the new - Grant, Allen, Imbula, Bruno, Bony, Sobhi And stick with it. For better or worse. (Only Bardsley, Adam and Arnie seem up for it.)
So my question is....
Where the f*** was Sobhi on Sunday? We are crying out for width and crosses, and he's not even on the bench. Gees

Must be something relating to fitness, him and Muni were out running before the game. Who knows, maybe they've looked at him in training and thought he's not up to the job yet(but Walters is )

4-2-3-1 is a general consensus is it? don't think so, we need 2 strikers on the pitch if you ask me.

44 fucking 2 and Mike Bassett to take over.
On a serious note who plays in a 442 midfield if we did go with it Arnie, Allen, Adam , Shaq would be my preferred choice

Didn't it say something like they have been given "other work"?

Someone actually knocked the ball a yard in front of Diouf ( instead of into his feet ) and in seconds he was three or four yards clear and squaring to Bony to score ( he missed !!)

I think we don't play him just to piss off the 50 million strong Egyptian swarm.

The game was crying out for something.
I was amazed we never made a at least 1 sub at half time and Sobhi would have at least brought us something different

If he is fit I am sure he will get a very decent run out on Wednesday. Hughes said very early on that he was going to ease him into life in the Prem .....'giving him a bit of game time in the next few weeks' Lets face it none of us actually know if he is good enough to start in the prem, hopefully against Hull we might find out.

This 100% an actual turn of pace from one of our forwards, I was shocked!

You're right we don't but can't do much worse than Walters is at min.

Like I informed this board before he was brought in by the commercial department.Thats why MH won't play him,it's like Shea when he was brought in ,it's just to sell shirts and our profile. He will be back in Eygpt by Christmas.

He will be back in Eygpt by Christmas. Hardly believable, Sobhi played before so your accusations are baseless. Hughes is one of this managers who make changes very slowly. He is either very cautious or lack the confidence to take the risk.

Sobhi's cameos so far have been very encouraging.
For him to be fit and not on the bench yesterday was absolutely criminal.
