Over two years ago, there were plenty on here advocating Dave be sold or binned. i had plenty of arguments telling the clueless sods to find a new hobby, he then gave us two brilliant years, and plenty of trophies, i dont recall that you were one of those nobbies, i doubt you were.
of course your theory, works if a player doesnt continue to improve in their Thirties, Fernandinho, would be one , should he have binned him a few years ago. Many promising young players hit a peak , when they stop maturing at 21.
Dave , should be in and around the squad, and playing in certain matches, coming on for the last 25 minutes in others, We do not know what injuries are hampering him at present, though i know most fans do not consider injury when judging form, Foden. will now play , more than 50% of matches, and we play more than most, plenty of games to prove himself.
