Didn't even make the bench yesterday. What was the point in bringing him in on a short-term deal if we're not even going to play him? He's only here until January at the moment, so surely we need to give some game time asap, so that we can make a decision on whether or not to extend the deal.

Maybe Wilder has decided that he's way behind the required fitness levels but that must have meant he was way behind at the time when he first started training with us, so why sign him?

I get the feeling the club only signed him to try and show the fans that they were being proactive in trying to bring in another midfield body.
 
McCree was on the bench yesterday as central midfield cover and possibly McNair. You can't have every squad player on the bench.

I would guess it will take 4 weeks for him to his the level of fitness required, if he was not training much in the Summer.
 
To cover for an injury or suspension for Howson would be the obvious answer?
I was hoping he was going to provide cover/competition for Howson and Crooks. At the moment Crooks isn't on it at all so I'd like to see Luongo given a chance.

I'd have liked to have seen him starting ahead of Mowatt as well to be honest, even though he's right-footed.

No chance he'll start ahead of any of them for different reasons and I think we'll only see him in an emergency.
