Declan Rice had another excellent performance for West Ham last night in the cup. Tipped to start against Newcastle at the weekend in holding midfield role. Would love to see him brought in again. Confidence bound to be on the up and unusually for one of our midfield players, he looks to go and get it off the defence! English born so would like to avoid another Grealish situation by getting our claws into him early!
Agreed call him up get him involved in training no possible harm in that
Walters out of the Burnley game this weekend.
Lets talk about six baby
Tits we need him
Declan Rice is in the U21 squad.
Assuming Walters is fit (if he's not then it will be Shane Long starting) and Hendrick is not.
This might be a decent team to start with in Georgia.
Randolph
Christie Clark Duffy Ward
Arter
McClean O'Kane Brady
Hoolahan
Walters
The transfer window is closing on Thursday night, unlikely we'll see much movement of squad members on the deadline day.
I'm presuming the team will be flying to Tbilisi on Thursday?
Thursday morning for the flight, I believe. Flying time for team should be 5 hours (non stop) and temperature will likely be 25 degrees celsius by game time on Saturday (8pm their time).
It puts a bit of a strain on the body. Let's hope the lads can get out of there with three points.
I think we'll struggle to be honest. Not feeling good about this one. It's not just the dropped points at home, it was the inability to raise our game to the level needed when it was, well, needed.
Does anyone know when the final squad will be announced?
Georgia have drawn with Moldova twice since they looked good early on in the group. They pass the ball around well but have been impotent in terms of getting results. Hopefully once we defend well we can nick it again. I wouldn't be expecting anything other than another slog though. What a position it would put us in for the Tuesday though if we can pull it off.
Every time we play Georgia, I can't shake the feeling that they're due a result against us sooner rather than later.
There must be no country out there that more hates the sight of us. We've grabbed a narrow win off them in literally every competitive game bar one.
25 man squad confirmed
McCarthy & Hendrick ruled out.
If Christie gets booked against Georgia, who's going to play RB against Serbia?

McCarthy is out? No way. That guy is never hurt.
