As mentioned in the Barnsley match day thread
17 different starters in the 6 games prior to the Bassey game, why the constant issue of Cooper not using different players
Woodman
Naughton
Cabango
Bennett
Latibeaudiere
Guehi
Roberts
Smith
Fulton
Grimes
Bidwell
Manning
Dhanda
Palmer
Ayew
Lowe
Cullen
Also the age old non usage use of subs by Coops is nonsense as during those games
Subs 30 -55 4 changes
Subs 55-65 1 change
Subs 65-75 3 changes
Subs 75-90 5 changes

That’s a good factual post and one which will confuse the ones who like to make things up to bash Cooper with.

The subs hasn't been an issue for a while. I reckon some people will be moaning that he makes too many changes soon, if we have a few bad results!
Such is the fickle nature of football fans.
If we win on Boxing day all will be good, for a few days at least.
It's not a whinge from me but more of a preference, I'd rather we started with Bennett, Guehi and Cabango every game and subbed 1 or 2 of them (under the current rules) from 60 mins on if we are ahead and comfortable. | |

When Villa won the old First division in 1981 the only used 14 players all season (42 games), 7 players were ever present.
Not bad when you consider the state of most pitches when winter kicked in |  |

Similar with the great Liverpool sides of the late 70s early 80s. | | | |

Try putting the modern footballer on the mud bath pitches of the 70's instead of the bowling greens they play on now...
See if they'd still run for 11k a game aye [Post edited 21 Dec 2020 20:49]

You can take latibeaudiere, gyokeres, manning, cullen and palmer and to a lesser extent dhanda out of your list as they have have about an average of 120 - 60 mins, so that means 12 players have played at least 75 mins a game which is the point I've been making.
Ateotd cooper obviously doesnt fancy gyokeres, cullen and palmer so you can understand why lowe and ayew are being flogged, touch wood we will get at least a striker that cooper wants next month which will take the pressure off the front two, couple that with the return of mgw and we should be pushing for a top 2 spot |  | | |
