I've got to say I love this bench though. Sorensen, Muniesa, Palacios, Arnautovic, Walters, Guidetti, Ireland. Must admit that the lack of decent cover at the back does concern me. It's been a worry since Upson left last Jan. |

It still makes absolutely no sense that we've got 2 strikers on the bench and one on the wing that we still persist with the slowest striker in the league. He's a proven goalscorer and he links up play well, with a bit of pace either side of him who knows what could happen tonight. Where has he scored goals! Looking at his record excluding cup competitions where his stats are inflated by playing against weaker opposition it isnt that great! |

I know many won't agree but Odemwingie is a great signing. I think we should play him centrally rather than out wide! |

It's probably the best team he could turn out, however I would like to see guidetti come on for crouch at some stage

I don't mind Odemwingie on 18 month contract. It was just the thought of 2.5 years that had me panicking. He's versatile in that he can be used on the right or as lone striker. He really needs to prove himself after flopping at Cardiff though.
I'm not surprised Guidetti isn't starting. People are forgetting the complete lack of competitive action he's had in the last couple of years. Build him up slowly. 30 minutes tonight I would say.

Would have preferred guidetti rather than odemwinge but it looks good apart from that Guidetti should play as the central striker if anywhere, in my opinion. |

Wonder if PO will play up top or on the right of a midfield 5?

I think it's a pretty strong one in all honesty. I think if Huth was in the starting XI and Wilson on the bench in place of Palacios or Walters, I'd feel a lot happier! But we are where we are I guess  |

Guidetti needs 45 minutes of football tonight.

The way i see Odemwingie (if he plays on the right) Slightly quicker than Walters Better passer than Walters Assuming he gets in the same places, a better finisher than walters. Good short term upgrade, and all he cost us was a mardarse |
