sushimonster85 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Think the fact he has only just started to get mins off the bench in the last game suggests he won't be ready to start a PL game for at least another couple weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 When he was fit Howe preferred Burn anyhow, so after being injured it might be a while before he gets to start. The LB position I'm sure will be upgraded this summer though I'm not sure Tierney is the answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not just thay Howe was giving Burn a run in the team because the defence were performing well, them Targett got a long term injury? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magvicar Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 This is the part of the season where certain players do need a bit of a physical and mental rest. Dan Burn is certainly one of those. Matt Targett is an easy replacement for Burn and has had long enough recovery time to ease his way back in. Lascelles should also come in against Wolves because he nullified Haaland and looked decent all game considering his lack of game time.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I'd like to see Targett back purely because he's a better partner to ASM, but some are going spectacularly over the top with how poor Burn's supposedly been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Richie coming in for burn could be an option. For a few games until he gets a rest and Targett is up and running again. Free kicks and set pieces might make us expect a goal for once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I know but there's a reason these players are in the squad. They should be used if needed that's why we have so many players looking fatigued, with us not resting players through the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Think he'll come on for more game time V Wolves and then maybe start V Forest. Guess it depends how we do on Sunday. Hasnt played enough for Howe to be starting him yet though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason they’re there is because of the dogshit recruitment strategy of Mike Ashley. Lewis for one hasn’t shown he’s a PL class footballer to date.

80 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Richie I could see a little argument for Manquillo for Burn, but pretty confident we haven't seen it for the reasons Brown Bottle gives above. Targett's the one we're gonna have to wait for... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Surely just stick Trippier on the left instead of throwing Ritchie in Manquillo on the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
