Sels or Victor in goal at Fulham comrades? Assuming they are both fit. A tough call though a nice decision to have to make. Not much in it quality wise.
Sels, I think, has a slight edge in reflexes and agility, JV is a tiny bit more ponderous imo.
However, JV had a faultless game on Sunday though he only had one save to make such was the quality of our defenders, blocking shots at source and working hard to track runners.
He commands his area a bit better than MS. Both calm in temperament. Both look much better in distribution with SD pragmatic licence to go long if under pressue rather than pass it out unless it’s straightforward. It’s the old Cloughian adage of not asking players to do what they don’t have the skillset to do.
I personally think Sels will get the nod
Thoughts?

If sels is carrying a groin injury then it's not worth risking him and chancing making it worse
Gunn back fit now to be on the bench.

Stokey, it's funny having this discussion about Victor replacing Sels in goal, I think most supporters wrote Victor off after the Swansea game!, but he's been given a chance and it's up to him to make it hard for Dyche to drop him for Sels. Anderson got his chance with the unfortunate injury to Danilo, and the rest is history.

Id give it to victor, why change the team if he doesn't have to. Man mark Wilson and we could be in with three points.

For me give Sels another week to recover.

I'd play the same 11 if they are all fit. They were all brilliant against Spurs. No need to make unnecessary changes. Victor did nothing wrong.

Long way from yank discussion milkman, you/ ravers talking football. You not got to nosebleed. ?

I haven't been on here for a couple a few weeks, Bowie. I've no idea what you are on about. Whatever Ravers has put is none of my business.

Victor should keep the shirt imo. This will only help him grow into the team with the other Brazilians.
