That was our second string backline so there were 4 players who aren't in our best 11 for various reasons. Would one more player have appeased you?This.
Before the match I hoped ETH would start half the strongest 11 in this match, then start the other half against Forest. Both teams would be strong enough that we shouldn't have any accidents (and if things weren't going well we always had our normal starters on the bench), all the players would get a bit of a rest, and the squad players would get a match or two. Unless he intends to rotate significantly against Forest, it just felt unnecessarily strong against Reading.
