    It is a monitoring thing. There will be times when he can play two games in a week, clearly. And also times when he needs a rest.
    That’s it. I think Bowyer has managed him well - Robinson overplayed him and he had some average performances and then missed the last 8-10 games

    Never could understand the criticism he got,Same as Jacko,people wrote him off at 32-33,but,like Solly,we always seem to be a better side with them in the team.

    Yep somehow looking more accomplished this season than he did when playing a level down last season.

    Maybe because he’s a better defender than he is an attacking wing back, which is what we need in this team at the moment.

    Excellent game today. Good leadership too when he dragged Lockyer away from Bamford

    Has always been good.

    Some people like to write off long serving players, never understand why.

    Has better players around him this time too so he can just concentrate on his own game and not bailing his not up to scratch team mates out.

    He's still the best right back we've had for many a year, certainly since the premiership days, solid, dependable, great 1-1 defender. I think the last two years he's found the best way to manage his knee which can only help. I think before that he was over playing.

    There's still no better RB at the club than Solly and until there is then Solly deservedly stays in the team, at which he is also certainly there on performances this season.

    Solly has played very well this season , today and at Reading especially.  Just a shame he can only manage one game a week . Fantastic servant of the club  , who deserved a better turnout for his testimonial  .

    Excellent today, but then I thought he was good against Birmingham and was surprised he was dropped for Wigan

    That's what his PE teacher said. Have you been reading his old school report?

    There are plenty of us who have never "written him off" but only worry that his knee problems might haunt him in later life if he keeps on playing. Immense today and a captain's performance too, kept Lockyer from talking himself to an early bath.

    One absolutely crunching, knee testing tackle in the second half over a 50/50.  He never wavered, not in his make up.

    Was that the one in front of the East Stand about half way line ish ....
    might even be the one when there was the mystery spin on the ball (some said it went out of play ) everyone froze,  I think it was Bonne who carried on and burst forward and the attack fizzled out

    Interesting article with Micah Richards here who has just retired through injury

    Says that Sherwood knew exactly how to manage him and his knee whilst Remi Garde fucked him over because he forced him to over work it

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49845993

    Reckon Solly will have similar for the rest of his career, if his Managers have the sense to manage him properly he'll get plenty more appearances

    If a twat comes in then there will be the risk of his career ending sooner rather than later

    He had an immense game yesterday and it wasn't his first of the season.
