Nmecha is a deep squad player, like Longstaff, neither should get close to the first team baring an injury crisis

What's the point of those changes?

Just risking two first XI players for 5 minutes.

Nmecha, I know he was free but it was still too much

When you’ve only got eleven to chose from, (and Okafor and Harrison are included) that’s hardly surprising. Agree with you ,though. I think he’s been ok.

Gnonto gets TNT’s MOTM.
