He was hailed as the championship ( therefore the EFL by extension) player of the year in 22/23 - and we’ve got him as back up 🤣.
Seriously - he is going to have a massive effect on Ronald whose own performances can be a bit hit and miss. We can manage him well and it’s not like we are demanding he plays 90 minutes every week but the whole window has done this for (now) all positions. As long as the squad have the mindset of “I’m going onto the pitch to give 100% for the team before I come off for a rest” and look on the season as a job share exercise with no ego’s being put out I think we can really do something special this season. Especially if the encourage and support their fellow positional colleagues it will be a great season for us. |  | |  |

Great post.
As you say if the players are rotated and give 100% in every minute we play plus we dont get any serious injuries in can see us doing well, possible top 6 🙏 |  | | |

With how tight the majority of our scorelines are a player of his calibre on for 20mins at the end of games could be the difference - especially considering he's got a shot on him as well. Mental to think this time last year we were sticking Abdulai on the wing !! [Post edited 3 Sep 12:31]

Exactly, we’ve signed so many quality players it’s easy to forget some of them. Just shows how competitive we’ve become | | | |

Our track record of managing player injuries over the last few seasons hasn't been very good.
I hope we're improving that side of the club as well... |  | | |

Agreed - but with the cover we have we are cleverly insuring us against player burnout. When they aren’t flogged to death and get rested they have a much better chance of avoiding injuries. | | | |

we can now rotate without weakening the team (although CB we can't really afford to rotate much) when we have 3 games in a week, where as before we were flogging players and looked shattered in the 3rd game | |

Whilst this was a last minute signing, it's clear from the report and reported clauses in the contract that he had been well researched and planned. | | | |

That , I think will be crucial going forward , certainly from Benson's point of view as he has had some bad ones . I have had 3 achilles tendon ops but a good surgeon/consultant got me back to where i was before . If he has made a FULL recovery from his achilles problems then there should not be any issues . Constant dialogue with him will be essential and obviously a lot of monitoring . Many achilles problems can be caused by simple things like wearing the wrong type of footwear - avoid anything that causes friction however small at the back of the heel as this will eventually cause tendonitis and failure of the tendon. | | | |
