Must win game on Saturday, looks like no Boufal or Djnepro, is this the time to give Adams a full game or maybe bring in Josh Sims, l can't understand why so many modern players miss so many games with what appear to be minor injuries it that the old style of putting yourself on the line is missing, what we need to have are some players who want to play for us, and not some cosseted sissies who want there huge wages regardless.

Not sure how old you're talking about Football is a completely different game now than it was in the past. Fitness plays a huge part nowadays and the game is played at much higher tempo. I, for one, would rather have 11 fit players on the pitch than any who are carrying knocks.

Agree with you on Adams though. Feel like he just needs one goal to get him going.

Sims is still with New York Red Bulls until the end of the year but agree he would fit in to and could thrive in our 4-2-2-2.

According to the press Josh Sims is back and training with the saints not sure however if he is in our premiership squad, could be an option if he is.

Josh Sims is back and training with the first team squad but he is contracted to NY Red Bulls until the end of the year. I am not sure if that was a complete oversight by us agreeing to a contract until end 2019 or some contractual technicality - especially when their last game was October 20th! maybe one of the Eds could help?

Fingers crossed Boufal will play!

{Ed002's Note - He would have been released from his contract when the season was up.}

I'm sure that I read somewhere that Sims is not allowed to play for us until January.

i agree with you Ed 2 but it appears this time he can't play for us til the new year. So maybe some silly agreement/ oversight. It was actually someone from SFC that told me he couldn't play . just seems strange. silly.
