I had to fight to stay awake through that.
I just do not get it one bit. About 6 games ago, Smith praised Kodjia to high heaven - and has benched him ever since.
He continually plays Whelan with Hourihane when everyone can see it. And now Jedi (who I personally like but he is NOT the future) is back in.
There is a reason why Bruce was sacked, and the players Smith is now picking is the reason.
Wouldnt be surprised if Elmo is back in next week.
Not good enough, we have about 10 under 23's playing for other clubs and at least 5 of them should be on our bench.
We will get hammered on Friday. I kept and keep saying, I will back Smith if I can see him planning for the future , well Hutton, Taylor, Elphick, Whelan, Jedi, Adomah is not planning for the future.
Abraham was getting no joy, Abraham has said himself he likes playing out wide - why not bring Davis on in the middle, Kodjia and Abraham each side, and either McGinn / Hourihane or the new kid behind at the end - nope, stick Jedinak on!.
