Poor, poor Reuben. The 'coming back from an op' excuse will only last so long. Tbh - I'm hoping that Brewster gets him in top shape cos if he can there's no doubt he'll be a valuable part of the team.
Umm, its a very reasonable excuse actually and'll last as long as any specialist suggests... At the end of the day the guy shouldn't be in this situation. He was needlessly forced on injections to get by rather than getting the rest his recovery required. He's paying the price now for Sheridan and the other coaches mismanagement of him.
To be fair to Sheridan, he always said he asked Reubs if he felt 100% to play with injections and Reubs always said yes. Manager can't be psychic and realise a player is not at their best. Admittedly it showed in performances, but I understand wanting to play a 90% Reuben over a 100% Brunt with the goalscoring record he had, just his name is enough to make opponents worry, and its absence enough to give them a boost.
Just looking forward to it not always being the front 2 and a midfielder being substituted every match, that did start to get to me.
