Great first 20 mins faded badly towards the end of the 1st half. 15 mins into the 2nd half he was shot.
He’s always faded towards the end of the 2nd half but recently he’s been knackered very early on.
Don’t think it’s a lack of trying just his body gives up at some point which is now happening earlier and earlier in matches.
Does he he’s a few weeks off?

Would imagine he won't play in the cup, in which case he'll get about 9 days off...So here's hoping he comes back refuelled.

I doubt he will risk Townsend with Gibbs crocked.
Brunty to left back, and Harper into midfield. I wouldn't risk Austin, either.

I’d give Tulloch and Willock runouts either side of Zohore.
We know what Austin can do, no need to put him in for the FAC IMO.
Harper definitely needs to come in.
Might be good for Bowen to get 30 mins too as a sub.....

Hate resting players for the cup as I’d take getting to a cup final over promotion but a lot of our players need a rest. Phillips clearly has issues with him fitness, felt sorry for Furlong who had a good game but didn’t get much help at times.

Phillips is having a good season, I think the criticism he gets is unfair & had another decent game tonight (miss excepted) without him playing not sure who fans think would come in ?

I think he'd be ready to go in the first team.

+1. He still provides an outlet on that side of the pitch.
