    If Hooper is playing up front on his own he won't be able to do that though, if Sammy is up there with him then fair enough.

    Just a quick reminder to those bhoys and ghirls here in Southern Ontario who have Rogers as their cable provider ...

    The game will be shown LIVE! on Sportsnet One, channel 99/394, during their free preview.

    Sammy's best wide left it's simple as that. He even plays better as a forward when he starts wide left. He'll probably be floating tonight rather than standing up front as a striker though, just hope he gets to run at them.

    True but the MF is 4 defensive MFs who can do a bit of attacking. I am not criticising the lineup. I think it is sound the combo of a really solid bank of 4 but two mobile strikers. Its the opposite of naive optimism that we saw years ago when we player 4-2-4 lineups against top teams and got humped. I think we are looking to hit quick on the break.

    Yeah I thought old Delboy was reasonably balanced in what he said.
