I bet Nugent is on a bob or two and he's played loads better than Martin would have done.

I hope you’ve patented that device that enables you to peer into alternate realities. Sounds like a significant scientific breakthrough.

Nugent at the start of the season (and presumably pre season) looked a lot better than he does now in terms of pace.

This is when the decisions were being made on who to sell/loan etc.

Fair comment, what really worries me though is what he looks like when he gets a chance in front of goal. Hopefully he regains the ability to calmly finish any chances if he plays tomorrow night.

Waghorn now integral to Fra k's plans. Marriott got it all to do, probably on the wing.

Dean Smith's mantra - Be a good team mate.

No news, they won’t be any either until an hour before kick off.

Leeds will already know obviously, but we won’t until then.

Will Bielsa give Frank a ring to let him know?

We can get our news from that Leeds feller who's been posting ?

if Waggy plays we win, if Waggy doesn’t play we are still going to win. 

[Millenniumram]

I’ll feel a lot happier if he’s starting tomorrow come 6:45 rather than Nugent, Bennett if not imo

[B4ev6is]

I hope Bennett starts upfront with waghorn.

Yes, his Wanchopesque lope will take us to victory 

[Andicis]

I think we're in some trouble if Waggy isn't fit. We look a much better team with him, he's integral to our hold up play in the past few weeks which coincided with our run of good form. If Waggy is playing, we have a chance.

We have a chance as roof out injuried mate

I would take that with a pinch of salt until you see their team sheet and he’s not there

Personally I think  Marriott is a naturally more talented player than Waghorn he just needs the right service and a team that can the ball to him quickly so he can run with the ball on the counter, his passing and link up play is not as bad as people make out he just is nowhere near as strong as Waghorn  so he can't play as well back to goal. I'd be much more confident that we could win if Marriott starts than Nugent or Bennett as he is much more of a clinical finisher. I think Marriott would cause Leeds more problems than Waghorn with his pace on the break, we aren't going to have much of the ball so it is all about the counter attack.

Nothing that has happened this season backs up anything you've said. For a start, Marriott has less pace than people credit him for. He's quick over a couple of yards but his sprint is average. On top of that, he's been generally very poor since his goal against Southampton when he has played. He's arguably a better finisher than Waghorn but that's the only thing he has over him.
