Agree on recent performances. Which is excellent by the way - as in its excellent we've proved there is life beyond Kayal & Stephens together due to Sidwell's excellent performances. At the start of the season it didn't work without Stephens but it will now I feel...
Yep. Even if he's not starting at first (which he won't be) he'll be getting 20 mins here and there for sure. My point on Liam is its been 3 months out, not 12months so a month full training / game time in ressies should be more than enough to get him back up to speed.
I think he will be back and fit sooner than that - about a month. But depends on team selection of course... We've missed both at time - Kayal is our best central midfielder without doubt IMO...
