Maybe, MH, but I can guess his answer if you asked Professor Coleman directly. He can’t afford to ‘give up’ on any player but, unless Stanley start playing rugby union to give a game to 15 rather than 11 players, some of the currently extensive squad are going to miss out.
But, should a player need to be brought into the match team, we need to be reinforcing confidence in his abilities, not undermining it.
Unless it’s an attempt to ‘bigup’ a ‘fringe’ player who’s a friend, family or client, or the end of the season when squad decisions need to be made, I don’t think chipping away at specific players at this stage is helpful.
