Dieng, RVDB, Lenihan and Hackney all had international travel and all started. Silvera made the exact same trip as McGree and came on ahead of him.

yeah it wasn't intercontinental travel for the starters though was it. 8 minutes difference between Silvera and McGree.

Does it really matter? Travel is travel, whether he's sat on a plane for 2 hours or 5 hours. There's still all the other stuff that goes with it.

McGree travelled to Australia in March for two games and played half an hour then 90 mins the week he got back, when we were probably better equipped to give him chance to 'recover'. It's an easy excuse and one that's trying to hide the fact there is an issue.

Estupinan wasn't in Brighton's squad on Saturday. Has he fell out with De Zerbi?

Dunno, I'm not a Brighton fan so don't really care. Maybe they have adequate replacements in their squad, which I'm guessing they do considering they're flying and battered Man Utd at OT.

or maybe it's the same situation and there isn't a conspiracy theory
 
Let's see if anyone present at the presser has the bottle to mention this McGree conundrum..... or if it's just down the usual route of ...'are you disappointed with the start to the season ?' and.... 'How do you feel about our large away following ?'

He played really well, O'Brien didn't you think? He was left back for the final quarter of the game. Midfield before that.

I think O'Brien will be a really good player for us, just not on the left of the attack.

McGree also came back from the World Cup mid-season in Qatar after being knocked out on the 3rd December and started our next game on the 10th when everyone expected him to be given some time to recover.

'What's your favourite flavour of crisps Mike?'
 
Journo: Hi Michael, obviously not a great start to the season, but I assume you'll be going to Sheffield with the hope of getting 3 points?

Carrick: Errrrrr, yeah....

Journo: OK thanks
 
One for a future presser but can you ask him why he seems so laid back about conceding goals. Afterall keeping clean sheets is a habit and gives you a chance of winning even if you have just one shot on target and it goes in.
