In all seriousness....the key thing for the weekend is that Cooper is going to have to make some sort of call, over Mass and Kas. Do they come back in; does Stephens stay in midfield; does Branco carry on; now that Tomlin has gone, who do we target to get sent off?
I'd say bench them both if they both feel up to it. But Stephens in the middle seemed to work well. Maybe everyone in the City game should be rewarded with another start. Mainly Gladwin cause he had a belter.
It's a good situation to be in. Considering one second we can be under-staffed as it were, then contemplating the idea of Yas & Mass not getting in the squad.
We need to get everyone as much game time as possible because when Jan roles around they're definitely gone for a few weeks for the Asia cup, but also because one of them could be gone forever in Jan too...

Byrne, Louis, Stephens, Gladwin, Toffolo

With the internationals and Willo coming off the bench.
N'Guessan now at Port Vale....scored a couple in the cup t'other week. Did OK for a while here, but typical of teh French players we've had, a bit unreliable. Personally I wouldn't bother signing more.
Yeah, I saw that. Happy for him. I was more just being sour grapes about the pen that never was...
