Obviously played the run in games carrying a problem and needed an operation. Fast forward 3 months and he is barely getting a mention by anyone on here in terms of being a Premier League starter and has been relegated to a squad filler at best. I hope he (and Jack Taylor) both get a fair crack of the whip this season, shame they're not currently fit to start. A little bit of out of sight, out of mind maybe. |  |

Likely won’t be playing much in the first few weeks given he’s missed the whole preseason. |
Get him in for the Leicester game. His fitness will be ok as has been able to train but not get match fitness. A good 65 mins against Leicester will get him up to speed a fair bit hopefully. Top level there is competition and he completely knows that. Will love to see his battle with Luis. |  |

Got the strong impression last season that he's very pragmatic and non-egocentric and will absolutely thrive in a squad where he's got serious competition for his place. |  |

Agreed. Great catch up plan for him. |  | |  |
