Agreed. And there will be some opportunity to shine, which will be more attractive than just bench warming. A good enough LB / Winger / CM should get game time, including in the latter stages of a European competition with any luck (at worst probably the latter stages of the Conference league?)...
Good news if they are. I would actually be astonished if Dunk was ready for 90 minutes 14 days after what AN reported as a groin strain. It must have been very minor if so. Mitoma was reported as being at breaking point by the Japanese FA. Perhaps they are saving face with his super fans back...
I think the thing with Undav was he wanted to go. He had a tough time here I believe.
We can discuss not replacing him by all means but it would have needed a player who was happy to come here and sit on the bench until we got injuries.
Our squad looks lighter than I thought it was at the end...
Were loose.
But, hey, it's Nottingham, where Brighton divides along cultural lines between Ye Olde Trip and Hooters pre-match before a game at one of the better old grounds in the league.
Absolutely guaranteed to be a great day out ruined by 90 mins of football.
According to this thread
https://www.northstandchat.com/threads/record-number-of-premier-league-injuries-this-season.404770/#post-10904465
that I posted this morning we currently have declared 10 injuries. Given that Dahoud is, indeed, suspended, there might be another name to add to your list...
It's pretty scary isn't it?
Let's say:
Verbruggen
Veltman Webster JPvH Igor
Baleba Gross
Adingra Lallana Fati
Pedro
EDIT - possibly Wee Billy in for either Baleba or Lallana?
Down to the bare bones alright.
