Still yet to start after nearly two months since he signed.
Thankfully not injured.
Hopefully well to make the bench this Saturday away to Watford.

i'd push nelson to right back, get bacuna back in midfield, and give that a try

Was wondering why Harris did not bring him on against Luton and Huddersfield after we were 3-0 up for a run out. Agree with the idea of trying Nelson at right back and playing Benkovic though you can understand why he doesn't want to break up a winning partnership.
