I think he’s suffered as we have so many options/players this season. You aren’t going to leave out a first teamer for an Under 21 ultimately. I don’t think there’s been a game this season, where I’d put him on the bench because there’s been a first teamer instead. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him on the bench tomorrow though.
I expected the same and was surprised to see Turns but not Duffus on the bench. Was that in case we lost both CBs and Veltman to injury?
Turns and McConville were the two defenders on the bench. No other defensive options available, as Dunk, Igor and Ferdi injured, and Tariq ill.
Solly an option at LB but I take your point.
Apart from LB Imari Samuels, of course (unless he's recently gone down injured).
Wasn’t on the bench though.
I know.
?
My bad! Misread his commentI know.
The OP said no-one available - he was available for selection (unlike Dunk, Igor and Ferdi).
Even Moder at RB as it transpired. I was responding to the point about why Turns instead of Duffus.
Moder played at RB against Utd last May right? Wasn’t terrible if I remember correctly.
Moder's played in all sorts of positions, and has been a great servant. I think you're probably right on that game, but not sure and CBA to look up. We've outgrown him, but really hope he has a great career -- suspect he will.
5 games in 18 days after that! - perhaps we'd better delay a loan or two until nearer the end of the month!
Ah ................... maybe he (Imari Samuels) wasn't available after all!I know.

No sign of Duffus. Injured or departing? Anyone care to speculate?
