When had the academy boys played prior to the match, could be a reason, and weren't there two academy players on the bench anyway? Perhaps he thought others weren't up to it, Phillips was injured also so wasn't available?There are literally hundreds of times it's worked out, and times it hasn't.
I'll ask again because as yet everyone that has disagreed and replied to my take on this have completely avoided (which by the way is because questions are being asked by players, agents and even coaches at the club) why only 8 on the bench that included 2 keepers????
