Dijksteel's injury?

He seemed a shadow of his normal self in the second half - was he injured? or was he upset about something?

At times he looked to the bench, but they did not replace him till very near the end.
 
9 subs on the bench and we couldn’t find a right sided defender to replace him with. We were already losing so the threat of remaining solid at the back wasn’t there. Very odd decision amongst a few others from Warnock today.
 
Yeah didn't like this.
I'm sure our 'tank' had an injury - his mobility seemed restricted as he was turned for the goal - and turned again just minutes later.
Makes you realise the harsh reality of our 'dirty dozen' squad :(
 
I doubt he could take him off. The CBs and CM are pretty much nailed on and little or no chance of rotation.

Paddy has played 3 more games and traveling than the rest of them. He must be knackered😕
 
We could have put Wood on into the the back 3 and juggled Fry and McNair. I assumed the management team thought DjK would run his injury off. which he didn't seem to.
 
Could have put Howson at right back and brought on Morsy? Hope he hasn’t made injury worse.
 
Quite a few of our players were off the pace yesterday.

The price you pay for our high energy pressing game and the fact that the games are coming thick and fast now.

The game should have been dead and buried in the first 25 minutes if we'd taken our chances, which would have given the manager the opportunity to make substitutions earlier, and give some of our regulars a breather.

Put this one to bed and move on.
