Watching the U21's get their @rses handed to them by Bolton last night was distressing enough ,but to witness the sad sight of Nat turning out for their back four made me really feel for the lad who was immense the season we needed him. Nat signed a new 4 yr contract recently and I'm assuming assurances were made to the lad that he would get some opportunities in the first team maybe in the cups and to ignore the offers that came in for him in the transfer window.
Nathaniel was the rock in our makeshift defence last season and Liverpool supporters rightly lauded his contribution and his stock was high, now he's so far down the pecking order he personally requested to play in last nights match just for 'I'm surmising' game time.
Thoughts ?
