Out for 6 months, “on the grass” for a month, individually training for 3/4 of that time still undergoing rehabilitation yet after a week of being with the rest of the squad you want him to start in a Premier league game because that’s the best opportunity to gain match fitness as opposed to coming on later in a game for minutes when the opposition players are far more tired? I can only assume you are Jarrod Bowen.

No Seamus starting, No Garner on the right. Many thanks.

Don't rush over too much Bowen plays on their right more and will face with myko I think. The seriousness of the injury affects the 'return' which I am looking forward to. I honestly think that playing all of our midfielders in that one formation may help as West Ham also have a strong midfield and some flluid positions. You seem to harp on about match fitness and stuff, one can get it if they play. Not many were up in arms when McNeil and Harrison were used despite not being matchfit. I would like for us to win the match and that is how I think we can go about it. So, yes to Seamus, yes to Garner.

Are you perhaps a Micheal Keane, will this decision help with 3 at the back and your start?

Add to this the manager said yesterday he's not involved tomorrow anyway.
So no point talking about him been in the team

So even if he is actually fit to play, he is not Dyche fit. Coleman features in the last couple of trainings (2 weeks). Hence, I hope he shows up on the teamsheet and it is not just not 'Dyche Fit' nonsense.
 

What's the deal with not wishing he is in the team? He was on the grass, then training together, all while improving his fitness and now there are details. Sorry, am not buying what they are selling. Again, I just hope he is in the team tomorrow, rightly so...

Because he's a 35 year old coming back after a 6 month lay off with 1or 2 full training sessions done.
It's not that difficult to understand surely

It's far too early for him to come back in for a fast paced Premier League game. Depending on how he trains between now and Wednesday, a few minutes against Burnley could be more ideal. Just don't expect a repeat of Arsenal a few years ago.
 

Hopefully we can get another performance similar to Brentford away. Badly need to get 3 points in this to make up for our poor start.
