I'd love to see him actually 100% match fit though Nin. Remembering that right midfield start under Ole, he was crippled with cramp before half time! You're not going to get a shift out of a player who's in that condition. He'll need 5-8 games to get any sort of match sharpness, the issue is he normally breaks down within that period. I defended Dika's potential worth in the summer on a similar basis but he had a decent career appearance record, Macheda has been a bit of a sick note all through his pro career.
Well Hudson is definitely ruled out for the game. http://www.examiner.co.uk/sport/football/news/chris-powell-reveals-who-skipper-10035239
Macheda scored 10 goals in 18 appearances for Birmingham. When able to get a few games under his belt your opinions will change......Hopefully?
