Branston Pickle 4,131 Posted February 16, 2019 Happy enough with that - the bench is starting to look a lot stronger too, with several potential returnees. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
......and Smith must score. 1,586 Posted February 16, 2019 So the injury dept wasn't as full as we were led to believe. Strong line up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westcoastcanary 173 Posted February 16, 2019 The reason KM has so far been restricted to brief sub appearances suggests that he has been slow to adapt to the requirements of our system. He has basically played as an out and out attacking CM in his career to date, or if not central, on the left of midfield. Filling in for Leitner/Vrancic is a very different assignment. Today will show us whether he has adapted sufficiently; my guess would be that, rather than KM himself, it's the injuries that have forced DF's hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,131 Posted February 16, 2019 I’m not so sure about that - KM has had injuries and then has had to wait his turn as DF isn’t one for changing ‘unnecessarily’ (as PNE testifies, when resting a couple of players may have been prudent) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it’s more that he’s just had to wait his chance - as Mario had to, too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has that reason been confirmed by Farke westcoast or have you just made it up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's Character Forming 1,204 Posted February 16, 2019 Fingers crossed. I think it has been very hard for anyone to force their way into the team except from injury since September. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
