3 days since then mate

Exactly..! Anyone can pull something and need to rest for a while, but then a few days later be fit to play... and we don't have the benefit of professional sports therapists/physios on demand... Plus they made it clear he was close to full fitness before the match and they were monitoring him right up until the match day.

A decent team, what on earth is happening with Choudhury though? Of all the U23 midfielders Puel could pick based on U23 performances this season Leshabela wouldn"t be up there. Dewsbury-Hall and Kaba Sherif in the centre have been used more and performed better, Shade and Wright out wide of late have been the more useful and as a utility man, the left sided Calvin Ughelumba has been impressive. That's not to even mention Choudhury, Johnson, Elder and Knight. It's mind boggling.

It is a good looking lineup I think, most interesting. Not one with lots of experience playing together but a lot of potential praps. I'll watch with interest to see how they gel. Shame there's no Ghezzal, I'd have liked to have seen him given a chance to orchestrate.

I agree but if Choudhury was expected to play and then got injured in the warm up, then it might just have been a case of who was able to replace him at short notice.

It wouldn’t be a Puel lineup/matchday squad without at least one completely bizarre selection.

I agree, tons of better kids to choose from. Only thing I can think of is if the kid was previously asked to join the pre match prep to gain experience (has happened a few times with random U23s travelling to first team away games), but then a Choudhury injury happened and he's just been asked to fill a spare bench space. I'd be shocked if he comes on.
