But he is 100% fit now and ready to play in our first team, very difficult to penalise him for something which may or may not occur in the future and may or may not be of his making.

If there is a serious underlying medical issue different, though based on his first team presence I assume there is not.

As for a pay rise I don’t know what he earns but I expect some or many would be willing to offer this on a free transfer.

As for first team place I don’t think that is guaranteed with us, it certainly should not be, but it could well be elsewhere.

As for winning the league we both know there is no club in England who can offer a better route to this success than us.
