winchester_royal Not saying that Jobi is a bad player. Far from it, he's turned into a very dependable and steady member of the squad, but he's getting on a bit and doesn't sparkle enough to justify the short sighted strategy that it would be to keep Obita out of the team.
FTR though if Williams is injured for Saturday's game, then as far as CM options go
The ageing McAnuff >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The 'developing' Hope Akpan
Don't think anyone is saying forget Obita. But for a short term solution with Bridge out and our form slumping Jobi is a good go to guy to steady the ship and get things moving again. Obita will definitely get more chances and would be a good bet off the bench too
If Williams is injured I think we'll need 3 in the centrs. Akpan can't be trusted and jobt obita and tshibola all are worryingly lightweight to play there in a two.
