Yup.

Even Poch used to rotate his full backs. I can’t pretend to understand Ange or the club when it comes to our fullbacks
A big factor in that we were as good as we were with Poch was that he always rotated the FBs in the early years. So we always had fresh legs on the flanks.

It was only really towards the end that he started rotating them less. But he still did it.
 
I only caught the end of the first half and all of the second half tonight.

But based on tonight there's no reason that he cannot get more PL minutes.

Apparently he was limping after the game today so hopefully he isn't hurt now as well.
 
Fantastic. Looks a huge offensive threat and it’s hard to fathom he’ll be worse defensively than Porro with that level of recovery pace.

We MUST see more of him.

I want to see him play on the right flank next to Brennan. They had a well functioning partnership in the Championship while at Forest so it would be interesting to see if it can be replicated here and make Brennan a more active player in the buildup.
 
The way Johnson plays it makes perfect sense to experiment,with him as the full back and Porro as the winger. He’s definitely earning himself a place as a squad player at the least

For the time being, that seems to be really dependant on Udogie staying fit.

The club just has no excuse not to get a backup LB this January.
 
Well done, lad.......

Just keep your head down and deliver when you get the chance.

(Said the same thing months ago and he hadn't had a sniff since. :unsure: )
