    It's a difficult situation. Everyone fit & I'm not sure he even makes the bench.

    He's not rubbish, the chap can play. It was his break from defence & pass the Griffiths for the third goal last night.
    I'd be of the opinion he can pass better then all our current centre halfs.

    He just doesn't fill me with confidence. A year ago I just felt move him on but thing is he's probably worth hanging on to as he can slot in domestically in both midfield and defence.
    If Jozo & Boyata are fit with potentially Coatzee as first back up & the midfield ahead of him in the holding role Brown, Ntcham, Kouassi can start then we will only see him as a backup. No harm having an international at his age & experiance as a squad player.

    A match lasts 90 minutes as you know.

    That statement is spot on, could say the same about other certain players getting exposed yesterday.

    I didn't think they had a great game up until half time if I'm honest.
    But in Europe you have to be on your game for 90 minutes.
    If you think they had a good game that's upto you.

    Bitton looks a good player when things are going our way, but just about every time he's been playing and the other team has their tails up he is garbage. Not got the mentality to play in games like that.

    Wouldn't have got past Rosenborg to even get into the Playoff Round without him.

    Can't blame him for last night, I said last week a large part of the good performance was due to Jozo organising and coaching him positionally. Neither Ajer or Bitton are capable of doing that.

    Done outstanding for Leigh's goal.

    Agreed. Not a player that can be counted on when the chips are down. We have a few of them in our squad actually, thankfully on the domestic front the chips are very rarely down for us.

    Made his account private think, weird thing is I went on his account and it said he's followed by Patrick Roberts, he only has 700 followers.

    Yeah, Bitton and Gamboa also follow him. Must know each other.

    Probably just friendly banter.
