It appears that players not playing when the team has had a couple of bad results become world beaters.
Sylla is the new NRC he becomes a much better player with every game he doesn't play in

He was very important in our revival. As I said earlier, what makes you so positive that it was Sylla coming in rather than the formation change that made the difference?I would say from the way we played with Sylla. I mean intitally he didn't get put in every week. We switched systems, but in the last couple of months it became evidently clear our best 3 was Westy, Delph and Sylla. Others kind of didn't really offer much when played. I'm thinking of Bannan in particular. Sylla to me looked a very good prospect indeed, particularly in the last few weeks. He was immense against Chelsea in particular. Not just his energy and running, but on the ball too. I've never seen KEA play as well as that so far. I think had he not been injured in pre-season, Sylla would probably have started the season, but fair enough, KEA took his chance to shine in pre-season. But Prem opposition in competition football is a different prospect than a friendly against Crewe.Actually that said, Westwood had a pretty average pre-season and it seems to have carried through.
