What are you WTF’ing about?

What are you WTF’ing about?

I'm just surprised that players out injured come straight back into start with no under23 games or time off the bench. Seems really risky to me.

Evans on the bench

Lovely

Gotcha!

 

[Brown Nose]

Two concerns.

Justin had 90 mins on Thursday and no way should be starting again today.

Castagne has had two training sessions after double surgery and starts.

Both are WTF moments for me.

No Erikson for them which is a bonus.

 

[Graz]

Oh my... Now Timmy is back!

And Evans is on the bench!

Whisper it quietly, but the defensive situation is getting better isn't it?

Decent lineup today. Obviously Ndidi will be a miss, and needing Mendy to come in out of the cold now to fill that role.

 

[Graz]

No Erikson for them which is a bonus.

What about Eriksen though?

 

[xavk]

Is little Wes injured again already? Or are we just being very cautious?

 

[homer]

Maddison always looks shite down the right, and I reckon Justin will be horribly exposed down that side

 

[glyn]

Surprised Fofana not even on bench. Hope that’s just them being extremely sensible.

 

[FrenchFox]

I think that is the best team we can put out. No Fofana on the bench. We have two weeks off after this so let's hope that we are almost back to full strength for the run-in. We could have 16 games in 8 weeks so all hands to the pump. A good win today I think.

 

[Brown Nose]

What about Eriksen though?

Fecking Scandinavians and their weird use of vowels.

Surely Justin will be on the left? Castagne is a disaster that side.

It's the Danish/Swedish variants of spelling the name.

 

[M17TT C]

Great that Timmy is back but have to agree, seems a but strange chucking him straight in to start.

Justin will come off after 60 mins but I'd have been tempted to start Ricardo based on performances rather than fitness.

Great to see Evans back too but hopefully no set back for little Wes.

All this positivity will surely mean defeat though?

Why? Justin was completely unscathed and was just as lively in the last 10 as he was in the first. The defensive errors show me he needs game time to get up to scratch. He absolutely should be starting. As for Castagne, we need him back in. He was our most consistent player before his injury, the nature of which suggests there's no reason to assume he is not capable of starting.

Fofana is the weird one. Was excellent last game out and now not even on the bench.

 

[Micky]

Wes is just being rested.
