I don't think naming Howson in the starting 11 and then him withdrawing during the warm-ups was gamesmanship.
I'm hoping it's just precautionary, given he was walking okay after the match.
Likewise with Giles, hoping it's just seen as not worth risking him if there's a minor problem.
Bar those two, we went as full strength as possible yesterday.
Fry has been missing for far longer, during a period when automatics were still a very real possibility.
Forss would have made an appearance in the last two matches just for sharpness if nothing else, if he was fit.
We know Ramsey is back at Aston Villa getting treatment.
