@ heart_of_oak - yes, I have seen it before, but it's still a classic in every way!
I'm off to play with my friend's balls and their twanger now.

We're blessed with so many top quality fullbacks; Foden, Brown, May, Goode, Armitage, Abendanon ect. It's tough to pick any one as being the best because they all bring so much to the table...Brown has a better boot than Foden but Foden has a better running game the best defence and more experience, Goode is great under a high ball and can kick goals, Abendanon and Armitage both have brilliant running games but are inconsistent (or in armitages case a liability), May has a very good running game and is diverse but his kicking for field position and tackling isn't always up to scratch. If I had the choice I'd start Foden on the wing as he never gets exposed out wide and Brown at fullback then Swap Foden and Brown at half time or bring brown off for wade and move foden to fullback for the last 20.

APV1, I have found the ideal motivational video for the team, prior to the next match. Here it is - apologies if you've seen it before.

I'd prefer to see Brown start, with Foden on the bench. But if either of those are injured (or in poor form), then I'd certainly not be unhappy to see him on the bench.
