Cissokho may or may not be a better player but if we never try him we'll never know.
I guess, then, the same may be said of all the lads who were on view for the reserves last night too.
You play your best players available.
True baz and what we know, for sure, right now, is that Jose is the best player available.
Aly will get his chance, I'm sure and, when he does, I trust he won't disappoint. However to just drop Jose, from a winning team, when he [Enrique] has been playing well, sort of, defeats the purpose of competition. If Jose starts to play badly that's when Aly should get his Premier League chance... not off the back of a decent show for our reserves, after injury (in my opinion).
I'm enjoying the debate but, I suppose, it's all moot because Brendan will know better than me what he wants... we'll know soon enough. Good luck mate.
