Yeah agree, hope Ricey can make it through the 90 and we've got Thompson there if need be. I've got nothing against shoving a young lad in the mix if the situation needed it. In fact we should have done that a lot more this season with Yeoman, Niall and others. Often they can surprise you with how well they can acclimatise but most aren't given the chance because i feel the managers are frightened to rather than the age old excuse of wanting to bed them in slowly so they don't get overawed. Don't underestimate the resilience and adaptability of young players Mr Managers! Anyway, i just hope whoever is in goal that they play a blinder and are helped by some effective ball retention in attacking areas thus not inviting pressure on our goal. We need to press high up the pitch and keep hold of the ball in possession if there is nothing on if possible.
