Thats the risks of playing sport, DF is trying to get these players to peak performance.

They could get injured in training on any given day. DF is using the squad sensibly. Keeping players on for 90 equates to a bigger risk of injury.

You come really do come across as criticising any and every decision DF makes.

Terrific through ball from Gnonto to James! A timely intervention from the keeper who was quick to get off his line probably prevented another goal.

Probably because last season we didn't use the squad or rest players over Christmas, and that cost us promotion. I think the likes of Tanaka and Rodon could've done with a rest at 4-0. Maybe even give a young player a run out.

Good win, and glad to see us scoring some goals. We desperately need to beat Stoke, as we're entirely reliant on home form atm.
