So you're basically saying to McLean "you're not good

enough, you're just filler for when our real players come
back". No way I do that if I'm the manager. He's done nothing on the field to merit being dropped. For all we know he could turn out better than Vrancic or Leitner. He's been given a chance and taken it. If he screws up then the others come in but would be extremely harsh and send a bad message if done before.

      - Equally what’s vrancic done wrong to lose his place... (NCFC) - loz, Feb 22, 19:17:00
- I wonder what will happen when they are all fully fit (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 15:18:46
  - We'll just have to sneak an extra player on (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, Feb 22, 16:36:55
    - it seems an incredibly strong squad in the middle of the pitch (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 16:49:59
      - All of those bar Aarons have missed ... (NCFC) - loz, Feb 22, 17:15:12
        
        Not sure that's true: Pukki has missed three games all season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 18:00:59
- DF tends to stick with the most recent player. Suspect (NCFC) - Chopper, Feb 22, 15:17:52
- After Bolton I said Mo to start. Now Mario back so soon I think he has to be No. 1 choice. (NCFC) - JD3, Feb 22, 15:14:13
  - Right answer 👍🏻 (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Feb 22, 18:11:35
- I expect it will be Vrancic (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, Feb 22, 15:08:18
  - Big question is whether Vrancic is 100%? (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 22, 15:36:27
    - Yes. From the comments I inferred he was, but if he isn't we will surely be unchanged. (n/m) (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, Feb 22, 16:30:19
  - I'm not sure McClean is out of position is he? Everyone seems to think he's (NCFC) - Jim, Feb 22, 15:16:03
    - I think he's a bit more box-to-box and can drive with the ball like Stiepermann (NCFC) - NJ_Canary, Feb 22, 16:28:52
- I'm sure Farke has it covered (NCFC) - strap_on sally, Feb 22, 14:54:56
  - I'm not worried its just a discussion point. Nice problem to have really (NCFC) - Jim, Feb 22, 15:01:06
    - TBF to Farke this season he's got most decisions correct (NCFC) - strap_on sally, Feb 22, 15:30:21
- Give them half an hour each. (NCFC) - APB, Feb 22, 14:54:22
