I know he's had little chance to make a claim for the team, but he's shown nothing in his series of 10 minutes to justify a place.
I actually wonder if he's got a twin brother and we got the wrong one!
I think there has to come a time this season when we have to stop sticking with underperforming players and Matt Phillips falls into that equation. That leaves us with Burke or McLean for the right wing and I'd prefer to see Burke out there. He may be a Championship player with potential but his raw pace could be a good outlet to stretch the play on the right wing.
In my team above Rodriguez is a wide forward on the left rather than a winger so he has the freedom to move into central positions to get close to Rondon. This leaves space outwide for Brunt to move into from left back. Therefore on the right wing we need a different type of winger, someone who can stay wide and stretch the play with direct pace. That is where Burke can excel.
