You may be right, No way am I suggesting he is a failure, my favourite player last season. The club are clearly not desperate to get shot as he would be gone if so.
I don’t know enough about FH’s midfield choices to pass it off as anywhere near a fact, but I get the impression he may be too small and lightweight for the style FH prefers. The fact that he hasn’t had a minutes game time is odd if he is still rated, he’s not been injured has he?
Oh yes and apologies, I only quoted you in respect to the first bit of my reply. I didn’t mean to suggest you were thinking he was a failure, that was a general comment from the stuff I’ve seen on lots of social media platforms.
I don’t find his absence from games that surprising if he’s going to be sold, it’s obviously been in the pipeline for weeks now and they’ll not risk injury in preseason games.
He also had a longer break etc after the Euros so like Dunk, Gross etc, was off for longer I think, before coming back.
