Please don't think I'm being unkind to Ifill - I actually think we are not utilizing him well at the moment. Why ask someone who isn't 100% fit to run up and down the flanks for 90' when you could chuck him in during the 2nd half and he could do some damage?


Don't really agree with that. He's been in crap form and he knows it. His increased work rate is a good thing and it is his way of trying to play himself back into touch, or at least not being a passenger while he does so. He has generally gone better up front for us but if he is determined to play on the flank he just has to acknowledge he has more running to do.

I agree that ifill shouldnt be covering that amount of ground.
