Not surprising at all. He is training, just wont be selected. I know, but why take him to Austria. It seems rather pointless if he will not be selected. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,563 Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 Like Rossiter, Wallace may have played for the reserves today in his efforts to prove his fitness. He hasn't but it is he first time he's travelled with the squad abroad for a while so perhaps he's impressing the manager behind the scenes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But allegedly he is NOT an ultimate professional, and hence why the club took action against him. Wallace did a lot for the club and I wouldn't want to undermine that, but he was poor last season and the season before. I think Flanagan is far from the quality we need, but I still think he's better than Wallace. I suspect he will be offloaded in the January window. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,744 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Wallace and Rossiter are not listed with UEFA for the current round of games. Hence they won't play. A few whispers (sic!) on FF that Ejaria might have been sent back to Liverpool after being late for training again. Not in any of the Vienna pictures for sure. As for tonight, Rapid will sure take the game to us and play far more open than what we faced of late, so as SG said, it might very well suit us. Not sure who will be our central defence partnership or whether Barisic will play LB, and Halliday possibly alongside Jack in a deep-creator role. I'd hazard a guess that the attack will be Grezda - Arfield - Middleton and Morelos up top. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no way, IMO, is Flanagan better than Wallace as a left back. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest that isn't much of a guess given they are pretty much the only options we have for those positions. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
