Re Carlos Richards, anyone know what he is like as a player, never seen him.

Not the tallest. Right-footed winger. I saw him play for the Derby County Youth XI at Matlock Town in the pre-season friendly. Richards had quick feet, could dribble and cross, and has scored a few goals at U18 level. Big step-up to first-team though.

I found it strange for Rooney to say we wouldn't include some regular first teamers yesterday so they could get minutes in this match. Yet as we see we have Cybulski in the squad yesterday and starting today. Surely that would have been the thing to do with Sibley, so he could have been used to create/take opportunities at Swansea and play today if not?

Strong team today. Apparently Stretton had Covid as well as being injured so they're been careful with him, hence he's not been in recent first team squads.

George Nunn, interesting...

Played CF for Chelsea and did quite well up to an including U18 level. Struggled to carry that through to the U23s and has adapted into a left winger, even playing wing back on occasion. 

George Nunn……interesting……..VERY INTERESTING ?
