Worth it for the fume alone. Some on the second bottle of bleach already.
Needed cover and got it in for free. Move on to the next body in the door

Not really cover though is it if he can't defend. This is a disaster waiting. Why we wouldn't spend a few mil and get someone in who can do a job at least. Thought we had loads of cash?

other thing is mate, Koeman may have no confidence now in Holgate as a right back being able to play in the system he wants, which would leave us with just Kenny as the only right back on the books basically, so maybe brought in in case Kenny can't step up or for those times we play 3 in 7 days

Least that's what i am hoping this is

I'd say that's exactly why it is. Was it a couple of seasons ago when Baines was injured and we had loaned out Garbutt and we were really short at lb. We would only be an injury away from Kenny or Holgate at this stage and be buggered.

I'm a massive fan of Kenny but let's not forget he's played only about 12 minutes of first team football. Holgate has done well overall but I think we can all agree he doesn't offer anywhere near enough as a modern day fullback going forward. But whilst Coleman is out, between Kenny, Holgate and Cuco I think all 3 will get some game time as we move from a flat back 4 and a back 3 and all being well progress through the cups.

Also means we won't have to rush Coleman back too soon as well all being well
 
Not to pleased about this, I was looking forward to a good moan in November about not having enough cover or experience at the back. Ffs Sandro, lukaku would of slotted that, can't wait.
