Denilson and Diarra set to start against Wigan?
Add comment November 23rd, 2007
With Fabregas, Flamini, Gilberto and Diaby all missing from our central midfield this weekend, Carling Cup regulars Denilson and Diaby are set to be handed rare Premier League starts -indeed for Diarra it will mean a full Premier League debut. Robin van Persie is still out, whilst Aleksandr Hleb is an unfortunate addition to a lengthening list of absentees. I really hate internationals.
One thing working in our favour on Saturday is that Steve Bruce will not yet be in charge of Wigan, so they hopefully won’t have the buzz about them that a new manager can bring, and will instead be serving up the kind of insipid performance that summed up Chris Hutchings’ brief reign.
That really is it for today. Or tonight, depending on which way you look at it. Tata.
