He'll work harder out there than Naismith...if that's where he's put.

Disagree. Naismith is 5x better than the current Leon Osman when played out wide.

Osman is completely finished, it's absolutely baffling he gets on the pitch, let alone starts every single game he is fit.

He doesn't stay out wide!!

*sigh*
 
He'll work harder and more disciplined to help his full back out. Ossie wont leave them with a mountain of work so they cant get forward.

I'm still doubtful he'll be 'out wide', tbh.

Yeah i'd be surpised if Osman spends much time near the wing unless he plays on the left as a kind of Pienaar lite and Mirallas on the right.

Would expect it to be more of a 4-2-3-1 with Osman, Mirallas and Barkley interchanging wherever the play goes, full backs providing width and Barry and McCarthy sitting and covering.
 
You can understand peoples reactions, I'd say Osman has been our worst regular performer this season. Kone, Gibson etc have hardly played

It is a strange decision
 
So up for this match tonight. Seem to remember both of our games against Newcastle were under floodlights last season, and that both were top matches.
