Paul Kannell
Vital 1st Team Regular
A joy to watch this lad, a class act. Should be 3 up, Lascelles should've buried a superb corner and Joselu from a sublime Mbemba ball. Need to take these chances.

Shelvey offered nothing when he came on as well, should stay on the bench.

That's what I mean, selection will often be down to who we are playing. Shelvey can pick a pass through slower teams defences; or pick a pass when opposition team selection isn't their usual or as they would want it.
Merino is more 'compact' and will be used to stop us being overrun in the middle.
A very nice option to have.
Also, sends out a message to Shelvey - if you go out of the team for any reason, don't simply expect to get your shirt back, as you would have before.
