Of course he has a choice. The alternative choice is to play somebody who is fit.He has no choice , we have had an injury crisis for a couple of months and are down to the bare bones . It is normal for our team to want to play if they possibly can and it is not our players who play carrying injuries
The very reason we've had an injury crisis that has lasted a couple of months is because pep has continuously chosen to throw whoever is available straight back in and push them until they inevitably break again.
We don't even have that many injuries, other teams have more than us, we are down to the bare bones purely because in the summer we settled on a squad whereby we can't afford to lose 2 defenders at once which is madness.

I'm not sure he is 'handy to have around'.
When was the last time he played a full match?
Did you say the after his goals against Arsenal and Wolves?
Honestly. Embarrassed for you and half the people on here.

How've you worked that out?Sorry but that is bollocks
First paragraph is obviously true. Unless you're suggesting he's being forced against his will to play certain players.
Second paragraph pep has said himself he's been playing players who aren't fully fit, those same players have picked up reoccuring injuries.
Last paragraph is proveable if you can count upto a maximum of 25 and have reading and comprehension skills above that of a toddler.
So which bit is bollocks and why?

May not be a regular going forwards but for squad depth he is and there is still time to find a solution to his injuries.I'm not sure he is 'handy to have around'.

Keep him around for what?Exactly so it would be better to keep him around.
Amazing that his fragile mind and body is ok when playing for England.He has no choice , we have had an injury crisis for a couple of months and are down to the bare bones . It is normal for our team to want to play if they possibly can and it is not our players who play carrying injuries
