2020/21 Niels Nkounkou

Tricky one.

On one hand I'm saying we're risking setting Godfrey up to fail.

So I'm inclined to think throwing him in a team who are in terrible form probably isn't the best idea.

if delph gets injured today who replaces him davies on the left again,strange

Delph doesn't run or tackle so he should be fine. Iceland mark zero.

Was rumoured to have picked up a knock in training earlier in the week.

I’d maybe understand if the alternative was another left back and not a finished central midfielder.

Delph has always been a LB cover though.

Played a fair bit there for Man City.

I said before/during/after the last game rather than Iwobi, I'd have went Delph or Niels.

 

[MikeH72]

Seriously though, he mustn’t be at the level yet.

Fabian Delph has never been at the level to play left wing back in the Premier League.

Sure he played about 8 games there for them. He has never been a left back and he’s been injured his whole career so is now unable to even play his natural position. And even if you want to make the case, why isn’t Nkounkou on the bench for when this experiment clearly goes horribly wrong?

That was 2 years ago.

Poor James trying to keep warm haha

 

[Tin-Tin]

Christ ffs

 

[d4kyxx]

Feel sorry for him. Did so well and now can’t even make the bench against a constantly changing midfielder playing as a wing back

 

[Toffeelover]

How exactly?

Preferring Delph to him, Delph is not a FB.

 

[tim cahill]

Why on earth wasn't he on the bench at least?!

 

[Milkman]

Miss you Nielsy.

 

[Chrismac]

No idea whats going on? Thought process isnt logical
