Substitutes.
When was the last time we substituted a substitute for non-injury reasons?

no idea .. but today's was a crackers decision .. he looked skilful and lively .. Robinson's not going to improve his confidence much by doing this .. UNLESS he was actually injured2

He put some good crosses in, just no one at the near post.Lincsaddick said:no idea .. but today's was a crackers decision .. he looked skilful and lively .. Robinson's not going to improve his confidence much by doing this .. UNLESS he was actually injured

We needed to get Holmes on. Da Silva played for about an hour and that's probably at least double what he could've expected under normal circumstances.Lincsaddick said:no idea .. but today's was a crackers decision .. he looked skilful and lively ..

Because of the enforced need to make an early substitution he was brought on a lot sooner than he should have, in fact, so was TW in my view and they both ran out of steam towards the end but only one could come off. Give them a bit more chance to get match fit and they will both be starters, not on the bench.Lincsaddick said:no idea .. but today's was a crackers decision .. he looked skilful and lively ..

Didn't it happen with sanogo last year. He had a strop or something....
It's the kids first appearance in senior football, he isn't used to the pace or physicality. Karl was probably gonna use him for 30 max. He had 60 and so came off. Right decision in my view.
However with a fit Holmes he wouldn't have come on at all!6 -
Didn't Charlton Cole come on at half time, and was substituted before the final whistle when he was on loan?0

Thought Byrne should have gone off for Holmes today2

DaSilva was knackered, he's only played kiddy football so far, probably with a sponge ball1

I hope Karl made it perfectly clear to Da Silva that the decision to take him off was not due to him playing badly. He did really well considering everything.
He is so tiny. How old is he? Can he still grow?1 -

Da silva looked like a fish out of water. He's not ready for League 14

I'm pretty sure that neither Da Silva nor Tony Watt were fit enough to play more than 30 mins, and they were on the bench to get some match time later on in the game. We were really buggered by the two injuries we got, and it's nuts to call Robinson out for the subs we made.8

Lightweight, knocked off the ball easily,gave the ball away - how easily pleased some people are.2

Yeah, nuts to call out the manager whose job it is to plan for such eventualities and to persuade the billionaire owner to invest properly in the squad.JiMMy 85 said:I'm pretty sure that neither Da Silva nor Tony Watt were fit enough to play more than 30 mins, and they were on the bench to get some match time later on in the game.

Quite agree. Maybe the mercenary manager should have worked that out too.Callumcafc said:

Da Silva has never kicked a ball at first team level before, he has raw talent but I highly doubt he's going to do much productive with it in the next couple of months-but he'll get some first team experience that benefits him & Chelsea.1

Yes. And I'm pretty sure he scored the winner that game too.East_Stand_Loopy said:Didn't Charlton Cole come on at half time, and was substituted before the final whistle when he was on loan?

Think he scored the winner against us, when we were two up and had Paul Konchesky sent off against Chelsea in the first game of the season, many years ago.Chizz said:
