Other than picking up an injury, anyone think that him getting a fifth will be the only way Slade wont play him before Christmas? If he got one today for instance, who would you put in instead of him for the Bolton game on Tuesday?
Depends on if Gunnar is fit. You could play Mats along side him, but if he's out, Ralls and KimBo or Adeyami (though he's injured).
Eikrem? Sums up the lack of quality we have in the middle of the park. Whitts and Gunnar were 2 of our best players yesterday. If either or both are out we have big problems.
For such a mild mannered bloke, Whitts is as likely to pick up another yellow as anyone by fouling an opponent through frustration. He picked up his last yellow through his lack of pace off the mark through fouling that Blackpool bloke when he got away from him recently. If he is sidelined, I think Slade would try Ralls in his place, though I'd rather Daehli got a shot at it from the start. Otherwise, Whitts will start every game.
