Ive said on here before that Benji looks like an injury waiting to happen. His lower physique just doesnt strike me as being robust, just the way he's made I suppose. But a shame as I feel he's much more effective than Oscar at receiving and holding the ball and bringing others in. Lets hope they can build him up from end April.If I were the club I'd be having him here during the break too working on building muscle strength.

It’s because Greaves got injured Elder was put in did a good job and any good manager would leave him there, it’s good man management , as soon as he fails Greaves is back in. If Greaves was so far ahead of him and so critical he might have got back in . That would send out a ‘ favourites’ message , plus a rest for him is good at this time of the season if you can over it . Maybe I’m totally right or totally wrong - ask Rosie

That's reasonable but it doesnt send out a message that Greaves is a lot better than Elder at left back

He’s our version of Kanu and Adebeyor neither were chunky !!
 
I wonder if greaves has asked not to play consistently at left back and to fight for his place at centre back. Its irrelevant though really as it looks like he's going at the end of the season
 
Elder, Mac and Jones have deservedly made a lot of people's MOTM top 3 over the past couple of games... Why should anyone have the right to automatically displace them after that?

To fit Greaves in otherwise would mean taking an attack minded player out, which we can't really afford to do right now.

As for selling him, I'd rather we kept him, but with continuous interest over the past couple of windows I wouldn't be surprised if we let him go providing the right fee came in. There's possibly still a question mark over how much he actually wants to stay as well.
