Pekhart

[eddiebailey]

Christ - clutching at straws a bit isn't it?

He's in the UEFA squad as well as Simon Dawkins, as well as such stars as ....

Jacques Maghoma
Jake Livermore
Kieran McKenna
Jamie Davis
Joseph Martin
Daniel Hutchins
David Hutton
Kyle Fraser-Allen

(The list goes on).

Difference is they are in the B squad; players automatically eligible because they are young enough and have been with us two years. Pekhart is in the A squad, one of the three players we were permitted to add this round, along with Woodgate and Gilberto. So he is in the squad in preference to Alnwick, Gunter, Dervite and Rose, all of whom miss out.

His chances of making the bench are therefore pretty good (though probably not sat next to Robbo.)

I'd guess it's as Yanno has suggested—insurance against Berbatov and Bent getting injured.

As has already been asked, a few times, what exactly dod Peks actually say amd about whom? I heard that he has a small peck at Robbo but I never heard the details! COYS!

He said that Robbo was dropped on the 9th of Jan, chose not to warm up with the squad and Ramos went mental. That's why he's not playing. Pekhart said that Robbo was a very angry man and then said Cerny is amazing in training and deserves his place.
