Obsession with subbing Adomah 17:05 - Nov 7 with 8203 views | Dando | Whats all that about? 60 mins maximum each game, then subbed despite being arguably one of our better players and our only threat at times.

No doubt about that, but not like hes only played 2 games for us. Surely built a bit of fitness by now. Seems to be sending some great deliveries in each game then is whipped off | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Agreed but didn’t think he was too bad first half, felt others struggled more and Carroll and Chair much more comfortable second half but the changes definitely improved us. It’s a fitness thing but if BOS unavailable I’d like Willock and Albert operating the wide areas, fitness permitting of course. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Totally agree, on this occasion much better without him, although Adomah has been good in most games didn’t think he played particularly well first half. | ![](/images/avatars/1980.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

I wouldn't have thought so but just cant understand it when he seems to be one of our stronger players. If not fit, fine but seems to be fit enough to be playing pretty well each time I've seen him. Not seen any reason to take him off personally, but what do i know | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

If it's still happening in six weeks time I think we have to ask questions. ATM it's a 32-year-old who has played very little football in 2020 and wasn't allowed to do a pre-season with Forest. | ![](/images/avatars/1005.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Adomah did a lot of defensive work, but by playing 2 RBs in second half we were better balanced for the change. | ![](/images/avatars/1276.gif) |

Then he goes backwards with his fitness and we are back somewhere close to where we started.

Exactly, better to have him play 60 mins per game and have him available 8 -10 times during Nov/Dec than 70 mins or 80 mins in a game now chasing a goal, only for him to then do something that puts him out for 4 weeks. Just noticed how many games we have after the international break and before the end of the year. Imagine all those games we can sit through from the comfort of our homes during these dark and dingy days of Covid lockdowns. Oh yeah, imagine all those games we are going to HAVE to sit through......... | ![](/images/avatars/1332.gif) |

We've got 11 games in five weeks when we return from this break. Dread to think what sort of squad we'll be taking into January. Already lost Amos. | ![](/images/avatars/1005.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I think we've just been really unlucky with his getting injured so early on this season. He's not been prone to long injury spells previously. It's not been a good introduction for players though, with COVID and the lack of a proper pre-season so maybe injuries are more likely to happen. Warburton seems to think he'll be ready to start after the international break. That'll give us a few options attacking-wise. I think Warburton is quite wary of over-playing wingers because they're more at risk of muscle injuries, which is why he switches between Adomah and Willock/Bright etc. | ![](/images/avatars/16746.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Obsession with subbing Adomah on 16:33 - Dec 9 with 4934 views | Dando | Just wondered what peoples thoughts are on this now? Im not saying Adomah is our savior but hes an experience proven quality player at this level and is barely getting look in. Warburton continues to talk about us being leggy etc yet he doesnt appear to get any minutes. Just cant understand it to be honest. Most games that he has started, he has played well then subbed and the games we have brought him on in tend to be when we are chasing the game and too late to do anything. Starting to look like he was not a Warburton signing and just isn't interested in giving him a fair run. We are not playing great at the moment, and surely hes a better option than playing Chair wide left and Carrol attacking midfield. Not sure we can question his fitness when its December now.

Agreed. Not sure why he hasn't been starting more games, his fitness must be at the sufficient levels by now? | ![](/images/avatars/2559.gif) |

Agree - just made the same point on Clive's match report thread - makes no sense not to use the more experienced subs when a) we have so many games and b) when we're not exactly ripping games up at the time. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
