Firstly, loved DM as a player and 2001/02 was my favourite WBA team of all time, simply for what was achieved. Seems to be a really good guy in general too.
However, today to pick Brunt central / Mclean wide in a 4-4-2. Seriously come on, 5 days on the training ground and that's the best he could do?
He's been there all season and every time Barry or Brunt are picked in that system we struggle. And I still say Barry/Brunt can be effective in a 5, so not picking on them personally. Burke has showed some promise recently and he's left out in favour of McLean?
I guess Chadli/Belgium manager will dictate to WBA if/when he's selected not the other way around.
I don't see us winning any of the last 5 as that was by far the easiest fixture on paper.
