Peterborough’s goalkeeper is a 19 year old lad who’s making his full league debut. Only played 10 minutes of senior league football before. Should be trying to test him as early as possible.
Gone for pace up front then. Not sure Kanu is quite their yet but good to see him get a chance at least. Gutted not going to be able to see how he gets on.
Said at the very start of the season I felt Kanu had a part to play this year. Looks like it's here. Why Garner never had a closer look at him was a mystery, especially when you consider the bilge he had available
Very brave decision... Not just to play Kanu (who I'll come to in a second), but the fact we're playing none of our wide players either, part of our play this season has been reliant on the pace of Rak-Sakyi or Blackett-Taylor, its not worked this season so its not like none of them have done anything to avoid being dropped... Its why I say good luck to Rak-Sakyi if Palace recalled him, as he's done nothing overly special so far to be playing further up the EFL.
Now for Kanu, its brave from Holden...
He's looked a fish out of water when he's previously played for us, and will always root for him, but at times he's looked very Karlan Grantesque where he's been thrown in too early - However he has continued his goalscoring form of late, so deserves the occasional chance, else how will we ever know if he's truly ready or not... Playing alongside Leaburn could be a stroke of genius for him.

Hope is we can pick up some bonus points between now and January and then get in the right players.
