players in need of a rest

[devonblue]

would the weekend game be a good time to rest a few i.e cahill
or should we keep the momentum going

Cahill most definitely needs a week off just to get some much needed rest. If Osman were available, I'd probably give Peanuts a week off too just to get him some rest as well.

Nope. Birmingham are playing well and we want to do well in the FA Cup. Play the best side available.

Correct. But you do know that because you haven't got me on ignore have you?

At this stage we should maintain the momentum. Rest players when we have more depth available to us.

This really.

Its not like we have options anywhere, a look at the bench on Saturday tells its own tale.

Give 'em a rest after 65 mins when we're 3 up.

keep options for the season open.

then when one presents itself (we will know when) we can go for it schumacher in the rain barcelona '96 style.

I've been here, posting sporadically (and some may say erractically) but you've obviously been missing my gems of wisdom b)

I would definitely give Cahill a week off with a ticket for two to the swiss alps if he wants to go there for a week. Have some nice views of scenaries,relax. We can afford to give him a week off. Despite his off form he has been truly professional, not moaned a bit and although he doesn't have the same leadership qualities like neville but he is a leader himself and knows how to get the best out of him. Give him a rest and then hopefully he'll add more than just 2 goals he has scored so far.

Why rest Pienaar at this very stage? Yeah he has been working his socks off but are we in a postition to rest a player of his calibre? Are we lying 5/th/6th with 8 points clear of the team below us? No we are not. I would love to give Pienaar some rest beacause working so hard can expose him to some injuries. When he shows that hunger and desire it gives every player some confidence and better their game aswell. You can see them now looking to give it to Pienaar whenever possible in the absence of Mikel. Just wait for the right time,he'll get some time off I hope but not now.
