With Onana and Kamara we may as well laminate the pair of them and hope we get one piece of tougher glass. In 1981 we used 14 players in total, on pitches that were basically allotments between October and March, with virtually no injuries.?

Hamstring injury. Out at least until after the international break.
Similar to Delph imo, but without the serpentine tendencies. People used to moan that he went missing, got injured and wasn't worth the fee. Onana cost more (though not that much more when you consider inflation) but came from and is playing at a much higher level at a similar age. He will be fine.
