Ryan Sessegnon 17 years old and already nearly 60 first team appearances, I won`t mention others, he is a good enough example.
It just goe`s to show how young players can develop and blossom if given the chance when needed, it makes me laugh when we have young players like us and they keep getting overlooked.
Such a chance reared its head on Saturday, I think under the circumstances O`Hare who is 19 or Grabbon should have been given the chance to play Grealishe`s roll against Fulham, with the other playing wider in Adomah`s slot.
Surely doing that would have been far less disruptive to the team, and our current system that has been very rewarding lately.
Teams like Fulham become disjointed if the game is taken to them, we did not do that and as soon as our team was announced it was obvious how the afternoon would probably end we really did play into their hands and got well beaten in the end.
I am happy where we are, but we are far from the best side in the division and we tend to show our Achilles heel when faced with team selection, we must have plans B and C.

Would of been good to see O’hare on the left Saturday, don’t see why he hasn’t been given more of a chance given how much he was involved earlier in the season. I just read that last season when reading beat us 3-1 at home Grabban played left mid for them and did so for quite a few games, I’d stick him out there tomorrow and give Lansbury the chance in the number 10, that’s where he played for Forrest and made his name so let’s give him a chance. As for Sessegnon I do get what your saying totally about young players not getting a chance but players like Sessegnon are a special case, fans of other clubs would of been saying the exact same thing after watching grealish in the FA cup semi final, some young kids just scream that their ready get their chance and don’t make any mistakes, Green up until his injuries was like that and Bruce consistently played him, but I too can’t see why O’hare isn't atleast on the bench, even against Peterborough he was a stand out player, it’s quite weird, as I’m writing this he’s playing for the U23’s and we’re 2-0 up 20 minutes him, shock horror Murphy has scored, good that we’re dominating but if their playing tonight neither will feature tomorrow.

U 23 3-1 now.
I do get you in theory, but Sessegnon has only become a special case because he has developed into a special case.
If you make regular appearances you can gauge a players ability, if not its stop start all the time.
It is no use saying how good someone is and then picking someone else, show them you mean it.
At the end of the day Bruce tends to put faith into old legs, its not my thinking chris, I am a bit cavalier mate, always have been always will be.

Yea your right mate, it’s hard to judge, they have to be good enough in the first case to get regular games but they need regular games to be good enough. Injuries are going to seriously test our promotion push now and we need to find some answers, Players like Lansbury need to be given a chance and to step up now, and then youngsters need to be tested aswell.

I'm a massive o'hare fan and I find it very strange that he is not on the bench at least,
We must get these players involved more otherwise other clubs will take him from us,
Think there is more chance gabby will get back in front of o'hare,
