Morgan Rogers

He has looked heavy legged the last couple of games.
This is after a decent break as well.

He looked heavy legged at the start of the season too. I’m sure fatigue is in there, but I suspect a dip in confidence is a big influence. He still set up our goal on Saturday.

Yes but I would like to know meters per minute  stays? He has played more minutes than anyone else.

No he hasn't he's 13th on that list, with the top 8 all having played every minute of their 32 games, 6 of them are keepers though but Milenkovic and Van Dijk top the list for outfield players and Garner, Bowen, Anderson and Truffert are all ahead of Rogers. Mitchell will probably go ahead of him next week as well when Palace play City to fill out their missing game.

It's a bit of both I think. When the confidence is there he appears a little less bothered by the tired legs but the mental fatigue is causing more mistakes which hurts his confidence. He could really do with a break but that's not happening this summer, which is why I'm firmly in the 'too many games' camp.

That’s my hypothesis: he will not recover from the inevitable pile on following a £100m move and his loss of confidence.  He should stay at Villa and enjoy the normal ups and downs below the media’s radar.

I don't think our compliance people would agree.
