    The few minutes Lewis has had must have worn him out

    Wonder when the last time we had a starting XI that didn't have any loan players was?

    Maybe Clarke is making a point that Lewis was the type of player we just didn’t need.

    After 101 days, Humphrys will finally end his goal drought.

    Calling it.

    I take it the 2 week experiment of playing with wingers has failed then. Unlucky to the formerly unemployed lad from America. Least he's not on the breadline now though

    Humphreys 15/8 to score anytime, unbelievably stingy tho probably realistic

    You're more optimistic than I.

    Old DC does like to stick with the tried and tested, whether they are performing, or not.

    It's not a good look when the January reinforcements don't even make the bench. If he's trying to send a message, then I don't agree with him.

    Let’s hope that lack of any dirty physicality in midfield doesn’t bite us again.

    I fancy us to give them a proper towelling. We’ll see.

    I think you're contradicting yourself. He can't both persist with those that aren't good enough/playing poorly and freeze out new lads that haven't played well yet.

    It shows that he's got a poor squad not that he persists too long. I think he's got about 12/13 players you'd say are good enough and 11 are playing.

    Seems a strange one unless he's injured.

    But he is persisting with under performers and freezing out the new recruits. That's not a contradiction.

    read between the lines he either doesn’t think they are ready or good enough,

    we all knew that it was a really poor recruitment window so it’s no real surprise that they aren’t being involved as I don’t think they are the players he expected to get he said himself in the interview last week that it was a poor window. (Or words to that effect)

    But what if the new recruits are under performing?

    pretty sure that an under pressure manager will select the players that he thinks are most likely to get the result wanted in the circumstances presenting.
