I know many think I’m obsessed but please hear me out…is it not worth giving Maguire a go if only to try and spark some life in Riis?

I'm not sure about Maguire, but I'm far from convinced about Parrott, but the rest of the team I agree with.

Surprisingly I agree

I mean can it be any worse
 
Maguire cannot score but he gives 100% attacking and defending plus his "tumbles" which he gets slated for (unlike the Fisher Flop) wins us freekicks higher up the pitch thus reliving pressure.

I also think he is the best partner for Riis.

At least Maguire possesses a footballing brain. A shame that our useless attacking players fail to convert chances he creates. A gilt edged chance Browne missed late last season (Town End) is still a sore point with myself. Practically an open goal, one on one in favour of Browne.

I think the same, but with Parrott keeping his place instead of Riis.
 
If it was up to me, I’d go for this (sticking with the same formation cos he will never change it)

Woodman

Potts
Storey
Lindsay
Hughes
Fernandez

Whiteman
Browne
Brady

Riis
Maguire
 
Woodman

Storey, Lindsay, Hughes

Potts, Browne, Whiteman, McCann, Fernandez

Someone, Riis

So who should the someone be? Wouldn't totally surprise me it were to be Browne with Johnson retaining his place in midfield. Personally if we do give Parrott a rest - and I don't think he is a bad player but one who is frustrated and a bit demoralised - then I would look to the future and start O'Neill.
 
Does Parrott have an appearance clause written in to his loan deal? Are there financial penalties if he doesn't play?

From what Lowe said, no.

Shame really, he looked a threat in the early games and I think if he'd have got a goal in those first 3 or 4 he'd probably be on 4 or 5 now. But as it stands time for him to drop out.

(And this is how desperate we are) Maguire 🙁

I like Parrott but he's got progressively worse since he arrived and his confidence looks shattered. He was awful last night.

DJ can have no complaints if he was dropped and although Greg's been OK, Hughes is the better player now.

I am far from convinced about Brady ??? Honestly what is that fella bringing to the table , I just don’t see it
 
Problem is SU are a tall outfit and when we will be under the cosh it will be no use pumping a high ball. So prefer Parrot & Maguire who both can at least hold the ball up.

I'm surprised at that, other than the defenders I would say he's been our best player.

He looks good to me, good on the ball, actually looks a step ahead of some of his team mates at times. He's also created more big chances than anyone else (10th best in the league), makes more key passes than anyone else (14th best in the league), makes more tackles than anyone else (8th best in the league), takes decent set pieces.

However he's lost possession more than anyone else in the league at over 24 times a game which is a lot!! But I'm assuming that's when his crosses aren't met by one of our players.

I was told recently how some clauses work and I didn't realise this..i thought it would of been by a different method.

So say they said to spurs will give u 100 grand to loan parrott (random figure)....everytime they play him it knocks off say 3 grand....so I can see why teams would play loan players but I suppose it depends on the powers above the manager
