As the team news was announced, many of a Lillywhite persuasion were left perplexed as Japhet Tanganga was selected over Joe Rodon, with several feeling that the Welsh defender has been dealt an unfair hand under Antonio Conte:
Surely Rodon is a better option than Tanganga? I don’t understand that one

Cant believe that Tanganga gets picked over Rodon? So many mistakes from Japhet last games?

Rodon should be starting over Tanganga after he’s recent performances! #LEITOT

Does Conte not like Rodon either? Strange the boy isn’t getting a chance.

I dont want to see Tanganga playing instead of Rodon tonight
Theres absolutely nothing Tanganga can do that Rodon isnt capable of doing. He deserves a chance
Japhets made so many errors recently, he needs to be dropped. Nervy defenders make a nervy performance

What is Joe Rodon doing in training to not start at CB over Tanganga, Sanchez and Ben Davies ? #THFC

I just don’t feel confident with Tanganga in the starting 11, Rodon for me would be better, Tanganga has made 4 mistakes in last 3 games, also to Conservative in midfield for my liking
