I didn't want Sheehan to start. All this guff about players playing their "position" is, as I have said before, a load of bollocks that armchair fans love to spout. If you can play football, you can play any position, and that is especially true when you are talking about LB/LMF. In the modern game, with overlapping, covering etc, a LMF spends much of his time playing LB anyway, and vice versa.
We had a winning team on a roll going in to Wembley, and I think Macca was right to leave it, rather than reward a player who had badly let the club down at the expense of a player who had done a great job to get us to Wembley. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Tuffey Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 12:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [LU] Gary Mac > Oh cripes....some of EVERY managers tactical decisions are questionable over ANY "few months" period of time.? > MAG Agreed...but I didn't read about or hear one Leeds supporter who thought Sheehan shouldn't start. People weren't debating about starting Carole or Kandol but every person thought that Sheehan should have started at left back. Only Macca thought Sheehan should not start and ultimately that probably cost us the game. And I'd have to add that if that's the sort of performance Prutton has been giving all season then get rid. He left Johnson exposed 2-1 almost all game. I thought Howson and Douglas were terrific as were Huntingdon and Michalik. Solid down the middle, horrible on the flanks.
