i personally like valentine, bit pissed to see him go, haven't seen enough of sheehan to comment, but his game started sloppy last week, but got much better.

if Elsom and Gits arent playing id's say the teams are a LOT more even on paper now... as James said it now comes down to Fitness and Home ground advantage.. go MES!!!
