The importance of this game cannot be stressed enough. This is a must win game, against a side we should be beating. If we can't beat the likes of Wigan at home, then I don't know where we will pick up points from. We played well against Chelsea last week and deserved more. I'm convinced that we will win today. We've had some disappointing results at home this season and we need to get a long awaited win.

Must win game, obviously. If we don't won today, other than the league position, I think the players will start to lose confidence. Last weekend must have been soul destroying for them, I know it was for me. To play so well and throw or away late on, after we really should have made it 2-1.

I'm feeling optimistic today! IF Sam sets us up to play like last week then we will create chances. We need to take them. I think we'll be ok in defence, but we can't afford to not take our chances like last week.

3-0 Rovers. Samba, Jones and M Diouf.

Likely that we are set up like this:-

----------------------------Benjani

EH DIouf-----------Pedersen-----MB Diouf

------------------Jones-------Emerton

Givet------Samba---------Nelsen-----Salgado

------------------------Robinson

Outside chance we will go 442 with Emerton down the right, Pedersen central and MB Diouf partnering Benjani up top.

ps. Utterly bemused by Pedersen playing. He has been abysmal last three games.

Happy to see the same 11 again. Don't let the big man down boys.

That Wigan team looks absolutely shocking. If we can't beat them at home I really fear for this season.

Nice, Dunn and Kalinic on the bench. Up to Samba to get us the goals I guess.

To be fair though, Niko hasn't looked like scoring and Dunn was a liability last week.....

Roberts looks to be coming on

Benjani injured again??! I hope he is definitely on a pay as you play!
