Looks like it may have been because he was on a booking, and Brazil were being hammered.
And he bore some responsibility for all three goals.
Hopefully he doesn’t come back too disconsolate….looking at the highlights, I suspect his confidence has taken a knock.
That’s fine, hopefully puts some suitors off this summer.
Elanga can maybe have an argument over Cunha but I presume he's solely being considered as a right winger, in which case that's a pretty tough to case to make.
U21s are at Brentford tonight in the cup QF. They're a goal down and a man down at HT.
Any Chris Wood news in today's press conference?
"He's improving. Getting better, day by day. Big contusion."
Anyone know what that might mean in terms of time out?
Feel free to wildly speculate based on little or no facts.
Sounded to me as if he was talking days, rather than weeks or months. So, maybe back for Villa, more chance of Everton. But that's based purely my interpretation of his vibes.
Contusion == bruise. TUP.
I thought Taiwo was ok in the first half vs Brighton. Just a worry that there is nothing off the bench when he starts flagging (assuming Elanga will start as well).
I see that Nuno has attracted some attention, for mentioning the great squad unbuilding.
Presumably it's Jota, who as we have discussed previously on here is actually pretty effective at coming on for the last 20 or so minutes and being a pain in the arse for tired defenders.
