We've just been unlucky with injuries FML and as you say, DF doesn't really have any choice. I agree in hindsight we might have bought back up, but we're only allowed 25 in the squad with under 21s not counting.

Perhaps DF's calming words will shut up the Twits about Hanley (and now some are also on about Tettey even before he kicks a ball). We are going to need both this season.
Robin Sainty is also worth a read: https://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/norwich-city/robin-sainty-pre-newcastle-1-6219324 Trust TalkSh*the to get DF's name wrong!
