Good point regarding Okore. If he was fit why wasn't he playing.? This was a game that you would think suited his abilities.

I suspect there may be a problem but what it is I haven't got a clue.

A very fair article, as usual Dave!
Puzzled by the Okore thing...is Lambert giving just a bit more time to get up to match fitness?
Can't think of any other "logical" reason.
Back to familiar winning ways at that place on Saturday!

The Okore one is strange.  If he thought he was short of match fitness surely he'd be getting game time in the u21 squad seeing as he is clearly fit enough to be on the pitch?

May be it's because he prefers Okore on the right and Senderos has nailed that position so far? Personally I'd prefer him ahead of Clark anywhere

not worried about Okore. He came back from an injury and got hurt again. I think caution is the right approach. We don't know if he was affected by the virus, but he's another player who has a large part to play in our future. He's still very young and will have a lot to offer in what is a long season.

I haven't been feeling too great after the game either. Get well soon.
