Start Lowe based on what? Based on him being an actual centre forward which the team clearly needs Can understand choosing not to start him but there's a case for him He scores goals too Personally I wouldn't start with Gayle or Lowe today, would have an extra midfielder What he said. Also, this lineup is neither one thing nor the other. If we play Lowe up top, we have a target man to build around. If we play Brown, we can look to get behind and stop them playing a high line. If we play Gayle, we have neither. Basically an 'IOU one Footballer' sign hammered into the ground. He must be utterly embarrassed, poor sod. Or rather, embarrassed all the way to the bank.

Picking Gayle before Lowe (or anyone) is awful Management. Literally no justification for that man getting a shirt at the moment. Lowe sub on 60 mins to win it for Stoke. COYMP "Literally no justification for that man getting a shirt at the moment" Same can be said for Lowe apart from that he's not called Gayle. Apart from the fact that Lowe hasn’t put in multiple terrible performances. How else do we introduce new blood ? Must be demoralising for fringe players when Gayle keeps getting a shirt.

Are we contractually obliged to play Gayle or what? He's got to start Lowe. Either that, or sacrifice one of the loanees to get Fox in at LB, Celina on the right or left and Brown up top. Utterly bizarre. Start Lowe based on what? On the basis he might actually average better than one goal every three years

Is Lowe classed as a fringe player, I'd say he'd usually be no where near even that, he's in through desperation not good form etc, calling for him to start seems a little barmy to me. He's young there's no reason at all to rush him.

You have to give someone else a chance. Lowe is that man at the moment. Gayle is a waste of a shirt most matches. Letting the under performers know they are not getting a shirt is fundamental to Building a good mentality.

Personally I wouldn't start with Gayle or Lowe today, would have an extra midfielder How many league goals? I'll happily bet your mortgage that if Lowe is given equal minutes to Gayle between now and of season Lowe will score (& assist) more When Tezgel is back he has a stronger case for starting

I have to admit I think if Tezgel was fit we’d have seen a lot more of him by now, I think Lowe is still abit of an unknown quantity for AN whereas he’s more aware of Tezgel and would have potentially dropped Gayle for him.

Good enough, Old enough. It's not attitude it's reality. Good enough old enough is just bullshit. Where are all these 17 year olds ripping up the championship? There's a structure/pathway that footballers follow and the very rare few get there quicker than others. Anyway 4-1 get the fuck in

Some people on here look a bit silly don't they? 🤣 Not really. We play the same front three very often and very often we look poor and miss sitter after sitter. More often than not, that front three has been shown up this season. Bloody glad we got the win though. Hopefully Campbell can get some sort of form together. I’ve been impressed with his improved effort more recently. A target man in summer could then help more if he finishes with a bit of confidence.

I guess the question is which change you would prefer. Bonham for Sarkic Tezgel for Sterling with Brown at right back Fox for Hoever Thompson for Pearson Baker for Smallbone Honestly, I'm happiest with Jagielka. Non of them great choices to have to make but I think I’d have gone for Baker for Smallbone. imo peoples opinions of Jagielka’s game is hugely influenced by his career rather than his performances. WTF do I know Smallbone was excellent today probably the best player on the pitch.

Up until the goals he was poor, but showed what he can do and I am pleased he has done so. Long may it continue for him and also you so it gives you something to do in future games
