One snide revenge challenge doesn't make it so.
Hard as nails that lad

He's plainly good enough to play last night, he's got creativity and ability to play a pass that no one else who was available last night has. In addition he's got a great shot on him from outside the area. I would have had Kenny, Davies, Dowell and Lookman playing.

Same mate. That game was crying out for all them. Based on his performance I think Davies should have been above Gana too. My concern is Gana and Schneids don't compliment each other that well. They seem to occupy the same space, and especially against weaker sides, we absolutely don't need two holding players in front of the back four.

That's not saying Gana isn't a great player, he was possibly our MVP in the first half of the season, but RK has some options now and I'd like to see more "horses for courses".
 
Similar trajectory to Davies last year. Heavily involved preseason then wasn't anywhere near the first team until around December.

That turned out alright so hopefully it's the same with him.

Cheers mate, hoping your right. I also think training with the first team is a better option for him than going out on loan. Quite frankly he's not going to learn or prove anything down there. He needs to be on the training pitch every day with the more seasoned pros, and if intensity is an issue, he's going to learn that much more quickly here than down there.
 
Hindsight is a great thing, but koeman was never going to start all those players you referred to last night. It's interesting koeman in his post match interview, koeman spoke about the left back being a poor defender and they had targeted this. It begs the question why wasn't lookman starting in the right of the front 3 then. Going by last nights performance, martina didn't do anything more than JJ Kenny can. That was the only other change I would have made.

Yeah but the problem is he didn't start any of them.
