I wouldn't like it to be a thing at all, but if you genuinely dont think those named players would improve us considerably I dont know what to sayRidvan should have started, so doesn’t count.. Goldson had been dropped (and we were all happy about that). Cortes & Danilo are unknown quantities because they hardly played so are in no way “certain starters” Sima is the only difference to that starting lineup you can honestly say was missing due to injury.
I will concede that the bench would have had more depth though, but I unfortunately don’t think the injury excuse is as much of a thing as you’d like it to be.
Lets put it this way, if Butland was injured, Ross McCrorie or Jon McLaughlin played, would you expect to concede more goals?
