There are no alternatives to get a full bench unless he promotes U23's, which he seems unwilling to do and we have to trust his judgment on that IMO. If Rice or Soucek go down, I think he really would put on a CDM in there. Presumably there was a good reason why Odubeko was not on the bench.

We are so thin that Twiggy looks like Michelin man - we are one key injury away from collapsing.

the only reason I can see is the age thing, and as said if Rise or the robot get injured the gap can be plugged

I know Noble came on for 10 odd mins but would prefer others if its for a half due to injuries
but in Moyes we must trust like him or not his getting over the line and the team seem to like playing for him
and the rest of his backroom team

onwards and upwards and a couple more games in the cup

Even as a 10min sub Nobes coming on caused problems and it was instantly obvious how the game changed...i thought we were in the Marianas trench we were playing so deep..if it was 3-1 then fine but 2-1 !!WTF...imagine if they had of scored in the last 10 !.
Only thing he did of note and i couldnt stop laughing at the irony...he was plumb facing our goal but overhead kicked it and cleared it towards their goal, normally its the other way round !

Knowing the grubby little porn merchant hes probably thinking if we can get to 7th without a costly striker why buy one..

Agree with you that we have to trust Moyes’ judgment. After all it’s his job on the line , not ours.
